Markie Post, the actress best known for her roles in TV’s “Night Court” and “Scrubs” and the film “There’s Something About Mary,” died Saturday following a years-long battle with cancer. She was 70.

The California-born actress’s death was confirmed by her manager Ellen Lubin Sanitsky, who didn’t release further details on the circumstances, Deadline reported.

Post got her start in the entertainment business when she started working as a producer on game shows before starting her on-camera career as a card dealer on NBC’s “Card Sharks” in the late 1970s, the outlet reported.

She later appeared in several television series, including “CHiPs,” “The Incredible Hulk,” “Cheers,” “Fantasy Island” and “The A-Team.”

In 1982, she landed the part of Terri Michaels, the bail bondswoman in ABC’s “The Fall Guy,” and was in 65 episodes over the course of three years.

LOL! It happens the best and worst of us. I’ve even been booted for a few days for “learn to search” by the mods. Seems like they’ve gotten less concerned lately.

I recall her as one of the ones who jumped up and down on the bed in the Lincoln Bedroom. Disgraceful.

Aww...really liked her on Night Court.

I think the judge, whatshisname, was a conservative? He was pretty funny.

Her ghost is jumping up, and down on the bed Willie Lincoln died in, in the White House Lincoln Bedroom.

[Political Junkie Too]

Disrespecting the Lincoln Bedroom.

When the stars you had the hots for start dying off, you know you’re nearing the downhill slide.

Who is with her?

[Robert A Cook PE]

Big White House, Lincoln Bedroom jumping, donor to the Clintons. If asked, she’d probably lick the “boots” of either.

Pretty, back in the day.
