Robin Williams

Cobain

Harold Ramis, easily.

I don't see why the death of a person you've never met would get to you, but I was disappointed that Heath died.

I wanted to see what he could do as the Joker again.

Sometimes it's just the nature of the death. It may hit close to home or something.

Robin Williams' death suuuuuuuucked

Owen Hart. Watching this still chokes me up.

Robin Williams without a doubt. Still can't believe he's gone. Iconic roles, hilarious personality, and a great actor. Couldn't look at him without smiling when he was on stage or giving an interview.

Stuart Scott was tough as well. A pioneer in his field and seemingly a genuinely nice, well intentioned guy.

Johnny Carson

1. John Ritter - still bummed

2. Robin Williams

3. Phil Hartman

4. Christopher Mayer - Kenneth Falk in Liar, Liar and Vance Duke

Owen Hart has been mentioned, though I was never a huge fan.

I was sad when Dale Earnhart died ... not because I was a huge fan ... but because it made many of my closest friends very sad.


I was sad when Macho Man Randy Savage died.

I was sad when The American Dream passed away recently.



I tend to be more sad about these deaths whenever they are associated with people that I recognize from my childhood and teens.


I saw today where the hot blonde Amanda Peterson from "Can't Buy Me Love" had died at 43.

That makes me sad.



Oh ... and, I guess because of Bad Santa ... when I think of John Ritter being gone ... I always think of poor 'ole Bernie Mac being gone as well.
