Abby Dalton, an Emmy-nominated actress known for her early roles on such series as comedy-drama Hennessey and The Joey Bishop Show who reenergized her career in the 1980s as a star of the primetime hit soap Falcon Crest, died November 23 in Los Angeles following a long illness. She was 88.

Her death was announced by her spokesperson Sue Procko.

She was very appealing. Two of her shows, Hennesey and The Joey Bishop Show, don't get repeated much. Per IMDB she also appeared in 381 episodes of The Hollywood Squares, which you probably won't get to see either.

Not sure if you thought Shaw was just a mistake, but in case anyone else isn't aware, that is the actor whose face they used, though, and even his voice for just the unmasked part. Probably some SAG rule that face-seen actors get a credit. [Essentially Vader in the original trilogy was played by 3 actors not including, I believe a stunt man too.]

Yeah, I don't think the book mentions that, just lists Shaw in the credits. I dunno where I packed the thing so I can't double-check anyway right now, it'll be some time before I find it. But thanks for clarifying.

WWE is saddened to learn that Pat Patterson has passed away at age 79.

A true trailblazer of the industry, Patterson was linked to many “firsts” in sports-entertainment throughout his storied career, including the first-ever Intercontinental Title reign and the creation of the Royal Rumble Match. In a career spanning six decades, the renaissance man left an indelible mark on the industry in the ring, on the microphone and behind the scenes.

Watched some old Patterson matches. Most important to me since it's my favorite PPV event, he was the one who thought up the Royal Rumble.

"Hugh Keays-Byrne, an unsung hero of Aussie cinema, has passed away at age 73. I'm continually floored that he played Toecutter, the central antagonist of 1979's MAD MAX *and* Immortan Joe, the central antagonist 2015's MAD MAX: FURY ROAD. Thanks for all the entertainment, sir.

"By all accounts, Hugh Keays-Byrne, who trained at the Royal Shakespeare Company, was an absolutely wonderful human who fought very hard for environmental and humanitarian issues. This photo of him from earlier this year says it all. You will ride eternal, shiny and chrome."

It has not yet been confirmed how the star died.

Former French president Valery Giscard d'Estaing, who led his country into a new modern era and onto a firmly pro-European path, died late Wednesday of Covid-19, his family said.

Giscard, who had been in hospital several times in the last months for heart problems, died "surrounded by his family" at the family home in the Loire region.

"His state of health had worsened and he died as a consequence of Covid-19," the family said in a statement sent to AFP, adding that his funeral would be strictly private according to his wishes.

Fun fact, he was supposed to play Martian Manhunter in George Miller's doomed Justice League Mortal. God he would have killed that role. RIP!!!
