Gary Marshall (81) - without whom there would be no Fonzie or Julia Roberts playing a prostitute who gets the billionaire.

I've always liked this segment with Garry Marshall talking about how they battled the network about Fonzie's leather jacket.

Late one... Kenny Baker (83), the original R2-D2. He had a clever role in Time Bandits.

Twitter is lit up that Gene Wilder has passed.

FreebirdSTF · « **Reply #59 on:** August 29, 2016, 06:25:57 PM »

Wilder was 83 years old and apparently had Alzheimer's for about three years which was kept private.

Always liked him. Looked on IMDB and he only has 37 acting credits. Seemed a bit light, I thought he was more prolific than that.

I know the current generation remembers him for Firefly, but to me he'll always be from Barney Miller.

My favorite part of that movie is the ending we didn't get - that Rachel Phelps was actually plotting to save the team from bankruptcy all along.
