Actress Penny Marshall, best known for playing Laverne DeFazio on "Laverne & Shirley," has died. Her publicist confirmed that she died at her Hollywood Hills home from diabetes-related complications. She was 75.
Marshall made history with her directing career as well. With "Big," starring Tom Hanks, Marshall became the first woman in history to direct a film that grossed more than $100 million. She also grossed more than $100 million with "A League of Her Own." LINK

Sam Kinison did a routine about how he did coke off Marshall’s tits as part of how he earned his role in Back To School.

That Ariana Grande show “Sam & Cat” paid homage to Laverne & Shirley by having them guest star as former stars of the show Salmon Cat. Sad.

I only watched that show and Victorious because my kids watched them.
