This is about a week late, but pro wrestler Jay Briscoe, of the Briscoes tag team, passed away last week at 38 as a result of a freak car accident.
The main event of AEW Dynamite tonight will be a tribute match where his partner, Mark Briscoe, takes on Jay’s long time Ring Of Honor rival Jay Lethal.
Sad to heard that - and yeah, he was on the TV a lot in the mid to late 70s, did the movies and series, episodes of Wonder Woman, Bionic Woman, etc.
I remember MST3K doing a riff about Michael Landon’s bed wetting movie, which made me chuckle… “Hey, I remember that, it had that kid that was in everything, Lance Kerwin” - I don’t know how well they hold up, but back in the day I liked it, and the James at 15 pilot film. He was good.
I hate hate hate the hell out of this. Annie Wersching, who put in work on 24,Bosch, and Star Trek: Picard (as well as providing the vocal and motion capture work for Tess in the video game The Last of Us) has passed away at 45.
Not Cricket! She was the only reason I watched “As the World Turns”
(for some strange reason I got into soap operas in the late 70s and early 80s… the Guiding Light was my main soap, with Christopher Bernau as Alan Spaulding my fave, future Flash, John Wesley Shipp was also in that cast, but I’d also tune into Ryan’s Hope and ATWT with Loring, I remember it being a cool bit trivia to learn she played Wednesday Addams)
I’d just been thinking about her, and how cool it would be for her to do a walk-on on Wednesday so all three actresses could be in the same scene. But the world won’t allow us that level of fanservice.
