Sad. That was a good show. Is the big bailiff still alive?

Yes.

Marsha Warfield?

Never mind. I see you already found out. Richard Moll was one of my favorites, and I would have remembered if it had been announced that he died.

We went to his show several years ago. What a waste of money. We got up and left. He was still doing the same jokes he used to do on Johnny Carson.

I’m referring to Yakov, not Anderson.

LOL, when the Soviet Union fell, my first reaction was, so much for Yakov Smirnoff’s career.

[Bender2]

Yeah, Imp, Harry was a true character in more good ways than just his acting.

Richard Moll? Very much alive.

She also sang the classic version of Meatloaf’s “Paradise by the dashboard light”. Some of his later partners lipsynced to Ellen’s version.

You don’t see Night Court on TV or even inluded in any “classic TV very much?

Anyhow..RIP
Night Court is adjourned.

Being past sixty

Hmmm... I resemble that remark

“Night Court” continues M-F on LAFF-TV with four episodes each day.

Great show! Loved Selma Diamond!

I wouldn’t have disrespected it.

I thought Richard Moll was alive, guess I'm right.

Having said that, I had no idea he was THAT old.

Born in 1943, older than my dad.

He seemed younger. Maybe the shaved head.

I saw him in Hollywood years ago at some function.

Huge guy.

[Vendome]

Well, you are right...

RIP Harry. Glad to have been in Asheville while you lived there (with a bus group last September- we visited the Biltmore and went to a bluegrass music dinner theatre).

Asheville, like that city in IA (Davenport?) where Cary Grant died, seems an unlikely place for a Hollywood star to die? Why do some stars choose to move out of SoCal?
