Has own RIP thread: R.I.P. Ray Bradbury
i always think it's weird when people post really famous RIPs on this thread when it's pretty certain they're going to get a dedicated RIP thread. or is this thread just supposed to be a comprehensive list of dead celebs? i guess i don't understand what this thread is for.

Thought it was for people who might not be well-known for their own thread but could also be used to announce and link to standalone threads for more famous persons.

I totally missed hearing of Frank Cady's death a month ago. So used to seeing him as kindly Sam Drucker as a kid, so it was a weird moment when I first watched The Bad Seed; his small performance as Mr. Daigle alongside grieving Eileen Heckart is minor, but moving.

In the 60s and 70s, the Andy Griffith Show was one of the few positive portrayals of the South we got to see on TV. A cloying, one-dimensional South, true, but a gentle one, with recognizable similarities to where we lived. RIP.
