Michael Jackson? Lady Diana? In terms of media coverage, those two might be the biggest I can remember in last 20 years.
Prince? Michael Jackson?
I suspect, though, that if Star Wars hadn't come out with new movies in recent months, Carrie's passing might not have attracted so much attention.
If she was grounded, she got to it via manic depression & cocaine... /half joking
Lest we forget how Greta Van Sustern et al drug on and on over Anna Nicole Smith ?
“I dont remember the death of a celebrity taking up so much airtime as Carries - may she Rest in Peace.”
Elvis. His death at age 42 smacked a lot of people in the face with their own mortality.
Carrie Fisher starred in movies that literally almost everyone in the First- and Second-World have seen over the last 40 years. And I won’t even go into the slave-girl costume.
RIP.
Sister Act wasn’t that bad. Cheesy, perhaps, but not terrible.
Skip the cheap shots.
Laz is very sad about Fisher’s passing but he does have two life-size cardboard images of her in the gold bikini. One for each eye.
I was unaware of Fisher’s prowess as a “script doctor.” To me, that’s a claim to fame that exceeds her Star Wars role. It reminds me of a prolific screen writer of yesteryear, Ben Hecht, who was also a script doctor of renown. He could re-work an entire script in a few days. Anyone remember him?
LOL, that works.
He was referenced on an episode of Gilligan’s Island, as I recall.
Of all places!
Dan Akroyd believes aliens have visited Earth, and that our government is covering it up.

He’s not exactly alone.
True, there are numerous crazy people in this world.
Who would know better than Beldar?
