Betty White is to Golden Girls as Robert Clary is to…

You know what's sad? Learning that all but one of the actors in one of your favorite TV shows from childhood are dead.

There was absolutely nothing on the television machine at all last night, so Ben and I started channel surfing and came across reruns of Hogan's Heroes. Good lord, I grew up with Stalag 13.

"I see noth-thing! I know noth-thing! "

  • Bob Crane (Hogan) – dead 1978, age 49
  • Werner Klemperer (Klink) – dead 2000, age 80
  • John Banner (Schultz) – dead 1973, age 63
  • Richard Dawson (Newkirk) – dead 2012, age 79
  • Larry Hovis (Carter) – dead 2003, age 67
  • Ivan Dixon (Kinch) – dead 2008, age 76
  • Robert Clary (LeBeau) – age 86, the only surviving cast member

In Internet parlance, "I has a sad."

Quote of the Day

"You know, when you're a kid, they tell you it's all: Grow up, get a job, get married, get a house, have a kid…and that's it. But the truth is, the world is so much stranger than that. It's so much darker…and so much madder…and so much better" ~ Elton,  from the Doctor Who episode Love & Monsters
