Dr. JOHNNY FEVER has signed out for the last time. RIP to Howard, and ALL who have passed on...
@2:22 Howard Hesseman died January 29, 2022 (age 81). Shocked and saddened to hear of this. RIP Dr. Johnny Fever. I also remember him fondly from "About Schmidt" where he played "Larry Hertzel". Another slice of our generation on TV and at the movies. Rest well sir.
81, had to count on my fingers! I now feel old. RIP Johnny.
I forgot Mr. Hesseman was in "About Schmidt"!
OMG! 😅"About Schmidt"is hysterical! I felt so bad 4 him because Kathy Bates cursed him out in the movie every chance she got! Rest in Peace Howard! 💜🕊️🕯️
I’m sure going to miss Howard Hessman, not only a talented actor but sure left a lasting impression as Dr. Johnny Fever. R.I. P. sir…
He was my favorite on WKRP.
Me too . I did not know he died . Shame
Wkrp was my show
Also loved him on That 70's Show.
He played a smart mouthed hippy on the 60s Dragnet. He was an awful person on that show lol
A firefighter in Maryland also passed away. May all these people RIP.
We also had one in Oregon, died of explosion at a fire
I’ll sure miss Howard. One of my favourite actors. Thx for the laughs Howard! RIP!
I was just thinking of Howard Hessman. He was on so many programs from the 70's and 80's. Johnny Fever was wonderfully strange and funny. God rest his soul.
Howard may have passed on, but his Dr Johnny Fever will remain a legend of television.
You always do this with such grace and caring AND when you make a mistake you immediately correct it and make an apology. Others should learn from your first class work.
Howard Hessman will always be remembered for his work on WKRP in Cincinnati and Head of the class, but I remember him for a small role in the movie the Sunshine Boys. He played the part of a director who auditioned Walter Matthau’s character Willie Clark…..
It’s a hysterically funny movie with an amazing cast….
At one point they were going to cast Jack Benny in the movie because George Burns was in the movie, but he passed away before production started and was replaced by Matthau….
Sad to see Howard go….
RIP Mr. Hessman
Thanku for this info, i did not know of this movie. Im going to try find it. I liked this actor too. Soo saad
Do you remember him in the last season of One day at a time?
@@jenbranker4775 Yes, and now he’s up there with Ms. Bonnie in TV heaven.
I loved Dr. Johnny Fever on WKRP when I was little. R.I.P.😥
Tremonton, Utah Fire Chief Steve Batis died February 1 after fighting cancer. He was a childhood friend who came to help us move my dad into a hospital bed in the living when he was dying of cancer at the start of the pandemic. He served the community his whole life
So sorry to hear of your childhood friend, Steve Batis, losing his battle with cancer. There never seems to be any recognition for just “plain, ordinary people!” Thank you for making us aware of your friend’s passing. Prayers of peace and comfort for you and also for Steve’s family. ♥️
And they risk their lives EVERY day!
I almost died at age 65.6 yrs. in 2020) of Covid. My dad was 64.6 yrs.in '84 of a heart attack. Not celebrities, but an ordinary American and her Army veteran dad, Herbert.
Virginia, I raise my glass in honor of you and your dad. God bless you and condolences for your loss.🙏💞
I’m so glad you made it through it.
I will never forget when Johnny Fever and Venus fly trap did the reaction test after drinking alcohol. They just kept going and got faster 🤣 the more they drank.
I was just remembering the alcohol show with Howard, other than the Turkeys being thrown out of the helicopters, they are still the funniest skits I've ever seen in my life.
Thank you for your tributes. I feel sad and angry about the firefighter who was shot and killed while responding to a call. Praying for his family. Thank you again also for all the half-staff memorials. That's why I love your channel so much. God Bless You and stay safe.
Correction: There is a typo in the birth year for actor Vachik Mangassarian; his year of birth should be 1943. And we misspoke in announcing Tallulah Bankhead's anniversary; she was born 120 years ago, not 102. We apologize for the errors.
I remember her in "Die, Die, My Darling" w/ Stefanie Powers.
I am watching this right now. Today is only January 4th. How can these people be dead later this month, this year when we haven't reached them yet?
@@karenpurvis1907 This is February not January!
Oops. Oh yeah. Sorry
@@karenpurvis1907 Compost happens!
I just found out that Howard Hesseman passed away. The Decades TV channel is showing a binge day of WKRP in Cincinnati. My husband and I are from Ohio just north of Cincinnati and during the late 70s through the first half of the 80's we lived in Fairfield CA. We never missed an episode of WKRP since we were so homesick. When they showed the Cincinnati skyline in the opening credits we always cheered.
RIP Dr. Johnny Fever (as I'll always remember you, sir). You gave us much laughter!!! 😂🤣😭😭😥🙏🙏🙏
As God is my witness I thought turkeys could fly,,,,oh the humanity
Remember that episode
Born and raised in Columbus Ohio 👍👍
i was so pissed when wkrp was cancelled after 4 seasons, it had just gotten better and better!
@@joemorrow7691 that was the funniest episode they ever made😁
@@joemorrow7691 My favorite Les Nesman episode. I laugh just thinking about it.
🤣🤣🤣
I remember Howard from "WKRP in Cincinnati", "Head of the Class" and in an episode of "House". Great actor.
Sad.
Suicides are even sadder.
Cheslie Kryst was so young.
Jumping 60 stories to her death.
She had "high functioning depression".
I can't even imagine.
💔😪
I remember seeing Howard Hessman in the movie "Billy Jack". I was a little boy then. He will be missed....
I saw that in the theater. I was not very old maybe 13 or so. That's when I decided to be a hippie girl and fight for my rights. Still a hippie girl at 62years and hanging on. Some things change but some do not ever change.
Wow, that was one of my VERY favorite movies when I was a kid! I was never allowed to watch it because of the subject matter..but watched every chance that I got, friends houses and whatnot, great movie! I'd watch it again right now.
@@leslienahodil418 For me also.. things never change, sometimes much to my regret, I find myself longing for those older day's the older that I get! I will be 57 this year..time goes by so quickly!
I live in Stockbridge. GA
It sad that this young man has died. But this is how this town has turned out. I lived here my entire life I won't go to a store except in the mornings. So sad prayers to his family.
I'm not far from there, how sad
As a friend of his my heart is broken more than you can imagine
May all of them rest in paradise and may their families find peace and comfort.
Cannot believe Howard Hesseman is gone. Loved him in Head of the Class and Police Academy. R.I.P
But I must insist that Dr. Johnny Fever was absolute classic! Miss you Johnny/Howard!
This one SHOCKS me!! She reigned as Miss USA from 2019-2020, what an honor. So from 2020-2021 what could have gone so wrong, in such a short time frame, to cause such a tragedy of a suicide in January '22???
And only 30 years old. That' s the same age Andy Gibb died. That's YOUNG to choose to take one' s life. WHAT A TRAGEDY!!🤔
WE NEED TO HELP PEOPLE FAR MORE IN MENTAL ILLNESS IN OUR COUNTRY, RATHER THAN IGNORE IT, THINKING IT WILL JUST GO AWAY. THERE NEEDS TO BE CUTS IN OUR NATIONAL BUDGET TO HELP ALLOW THOSE WHO NEED THE HELP,--- "GET" THE HELP THEY REALLY NEED. THIS NEEDS TO BE A PRIORITY TO SAVE LIVES IN OUR COUNTRY!!
I was shocked as well. She was just getting started with her life. She had so much going for her. What could have gone so wrong to make her think that she would rather be dead? It baffles me.
Nooooo! Not Johnny Fever! Now my weekend is ruined. I adored Howard Hessman. He was such a talent. I will love Dr. Johnny Fever forever. Rest easy, friend.
I loved the episodes where Momma Carlson scared him. Hilarity at its finest. RIP.
Dr. Johnny Fever....gonna miss you! Rest peacefully. 🙏❤️🕊️
R.I.P Dr. Johnny Fever. You are a legend.
My ❤ goes out to their remaining families.
I REMEMBER THEM.
RIP to all of these unforgettable souls 🙏
A special thought for Mr. Howard Hessman 💙 Dr. Johnny Fever, my first TV crush 😍 May you be forever at peace. The doctor has completed his duty, babies....... 🕊
I remember Howard Hessman playing in Billy Jack in 1970.
Filmed in '69 then took a break to raise $$, the resumed filming in '70, released - kind of in '71, the rereleased to great success in '73. The journey from screenplay to success took almost 20 years, a really interesting story.
Awwww, I'm so bummed. RIP Howard.
Such empathy, showing the passing of awesome entertainers and you all tell a lot about them in a few minutes. R.I.P you beautiful legends!!!! CellaMadea
Vachik Mangassarian was said to die "at the age of 79." He was born in 1948 - the same year I was born. I am only 73. HOW did he pack those six extra years into his life???
special citizens can make up a lot of stuff.
RIP Dr. Johnny Fever.
Pig Robbins was one of the most beloved musicians in Nashville. To me, his most valuable contribution was the development of George Jones' sound! His piano style was the the perfect complement to Jones' voice!
Howard was awesome on Wkrp. Turkey drop best episode
"I swear I didn't know that turkey's couldn't fly!"
One of the best lines in the show's all too short history.
That and how Les always pronounced things and names wrong. The way he pronounced the golfer Chi-Chi Rodriguez and wouldn't let Johnny correct him!
And how about when Mr. Carlson wouldn't get a helicopter for Les so he could do his traffic reports. So Les just beat on his chest while he did traffic so it would sound like he was in a helicopter.
The TV channel Decades had a Dr. Johnny Fever marathon just a couple of days ago. I loved it!!!
I laughed and cried at the same time. RIP Howard Hesseman! What a genius!!!!!
Pig Robbins played on more records than one could count! I saw him once in Nashville in Jerry Reed's club; awesome live as well as on record!
Dr. Johnny Fever loved him. RIP all of you . God bless.
Farrah died the same day as Micheal Jackson in June.
And was barely even mentioned as an afterfact
Farrah fawset. Charles Angels
DAHHHHH!!! only one was a white woman!! Lol!!
June 25th
So sad watching close to my generation dying out. Makes me feel old. Johnny Fever, 81 really? I was 16. I am missing our stars. I don’t know who is out there now.
RIP Howard hesseman
Not Howard Hesseman???!!!...Damn...RIP Johnny Fever...😢😥
RIP to everyone on this list. I want to specifically talk about Cheslie Kryst because I remember when she won Miss USA. One of the last few posts she made on her TikTok was a response to a hate comment, so it just goes to show that you have to be mindful of what you say to others because you never know how that can impact them ❤🕊
When you're that depressed, you're just waiting for an excuse to kill yourself. It's ultimately everyone's own choice how they react.
I’m in shock, what pain she must have been in!
I'm sorry to ask this question but I'm just curious . Was the hate comment in reference to her colour of skin. I apologise if you are offended why I asked. Please forgive me in advance.
@@davenaicker495 No, it was basically someone (who is notorious for sending hateful messages to people on there) saying she was "self absorbed" and "narcissistic", even though they didn't know her
@@syria0110 much obliged for the feedback mam. Thank you kindly. I also lived with depression for most of my life and thought about suicide day and night. There was nothing more i desired besides death. I know the pain of facing that life daily. On my 40 th birthday I checked in to a local hospital for observation. That's how bad it was. I'm so sorry that she took her life and the pain it brings to her family.
RIP, my man Howard.
May they all RIP🙏💔😪
Oh, how so many people have died. And those are just the notables. Imagine the numbers of "normies" passing each day.
Thanks for these reports. They are always so moving, and they always prompt a deep sigh at the end.
My wife and I were down with covid the first three weeks of the year. We live in rural Indiana a few mile outside a very small town. It seems that every time we turn around someone we know has passed away. It got pretty depressing while we were sick.
Seems like every time I watch these videos I get surprised by someone that died. We’re all dropping one by one.
I remember a tv movie called NEVER FORGET (1991) based on Mel Mermelstein's story starring the late, great Leonard Nimoy.
A great movie!
@PAT Warner Thanks-- I'll look for it!
I watched that too. Great movie
Boards don't hit back....RIP mr. Wall
I grew up watching WKRP loved the Dr
Great report, loved it. Thank you for you dedication and research.
Howard AKA Dr. Johnny Fever, died the Sunday the Cincinnati Bengals won to go the SuperBowl. Freddie Prinze, Sr. committed suicide because he couldn't handle success- according to the "psychologists" at that time. I was wondering if this would apply to Cheslie.
R.i.p. Dr Johnny fever. Make sure herb tarlek behaves himself.
RIP to all. I can't imagine how sick a person could be to take someone's life while they're answering a fire call!
Some beauty Queens don’t like getting old and they jump. She would have been better off being average looking then she would be alive today. Think about it if you dare.
@@holdenmcgroin9774 She wasn't "old"! Damn she was like 30! She was still a beautiful woman! Because of ignorant ass remarks from certain people, some just have a fragile makeup that can't handle certain types of ridicule!
@@holdenmcgroin9774
Sorry but I don' t agree with you. I don' t believe in "passing the buck of blame" for our own choses!! People have a chose, to "stop denying" their issues, face them, "GET HELP" "CALL" A HOT LINE, GO TO GYM/"WORK OUT" woman had some issues, that she wasn' t dealing with.
NEED TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR SELF,---IF CAN' T,---GET HELP/ CALL 911!!!!!
IF YOU NEED TO.
May sick people, in this world.
@@barbram8001 Did you leave some words out?
So sad to hear of Howard! May they all rest peacefully. 💔
Donna P. died January 21, 2022 in Rdg. Pa, of a brain bleed at the age of 71.she was not famous to anyone here but she was to me. She was my beautiful aunt / mom. She was a loving and caring person. And will be missed very much. Who else here lost someone famous to them?❤️❤️❤️
The two NYPD officers, Jose Perez & Wilbert Mora, died in the line of duty. Sad that it wasn't mentioned in the video. The error on Tallulah Bankhead (saying she would have been 102 instead of the 120 she would have been) was likely a result of a typo in what was written for the video.
Yes, proof that it's a TTS robot and not a real person speaking. Just in case anyone was still wondering. 😉
Baby if you ever wondered.
Wondered what ever became of me
I'm living on the air up in heaven .
Up in heaven that's where you'll find me. Got kinda tired of packing and unpacking
Town to town up and down the dial.
I know things won't be ever how it use to be
But maybe think of me once in a while
Rest in peace Howard Hessman
Rest in Peace 🙏
Wonderful respectful video by yourself always
I WISH that there was a way to help depressed people. That beautiful young woman needed help! I heard that she thought her life was over at 30!?. She was a KID. I just about bet you she was a perfectionist. WHY DIDN'T SOMEONE SEE THE SIGNS AND HELP HER?😭😪😔💔😢
😪It's gut wrenching...So beautiful inside & out. Had every thing going 4 her! 💔🕯️🕊️
What a unique beauty Monica Vitti was.
''People are sleeping; When they die, they wake up''
Great quote. Sounds like the world today.
RIP Sam Lay and Jimmy Johnson thanks for the music that helped with the music today ❣️
I see LeBoner James didn't make the list. I'll check back next week.
Rip to all. I loved wkrp as a kid watching reruns in the 80s. I know the other actor who played Herb in the show died last year
Condolences to their Families. Rest In Peace.🎚
My heart 💔💕 thoughts through prayers 🙏 goes out to everyone families in close friends I am very sorry for your lost May God comforts All of you in Gives you strength Rest well in Heaven 😇🙏🏽🕊️ take it All one day at a time for it gets harder each day be Encouraged for better days are coming 💕💔😢❤️🙏🏾😇🙏🏽🕊️🎈

2 ALL ON THIS VIDEO 4 EVER REST IN ETERNAL PEACE. TO THE FORMER MISS USA THAT KILLED HERSELF I WISH I HAD THE CHANCE TO TALK TO YOU.
omg, Hargus Pig Robbins...he played in a band with my uncle J.B.Hosale who is passed away, and my dad who is now 87...my heart breaks, Daddy talks about him all the time, now all of them are gone, he is the only one left of that band. Rest in peace, Hargus. 😭😭😭 I hope you know my dad was truly saddened to learn of your passing, a part of his heart goes with you, and of mine from all the wonderful stories he told me.
May they all rest in peace.
R.I.P to Howard Hessman .....Loved that role in Doctor Detroit... !... Jimmy Johnson.... R.I.P. .. the Rock n Roll scene owes much to the old Blues guitar masters.... ! Monica Vitti was very beautiful... !
I was close friends with with Moses and I still can't process the fact he's gone
So sorry for your loss
I’m so sorry for your loss and for his family and other friends too. Socially distanced hugs for everyone.
RIP Louis Perry Anderson (March 24, 1953 - January 21, 2022)
Also u said T. Bankhead was born 102 years ago but the year posted was 120 years ago. Other wise it was as always a good video.
Howard Hessman had a role in the 1960's Dragnet series as a then- liberal college professor ragging on Joe Friday.
I don't know any of these, but thanks for sharing. Shame about Mel though...go through hell to fall via an illness...R.I.P all.
RIP good souls ❤️
RIP Dr. Johnny Fever. I remember him in Clue. "The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.".
Oh no--- didn't know about Howard----❤
Boy, you sure messed up on Tallulah's info. She was born 120 years ago, not 100, and you got her age at death totally wrong too.
Everyone I know goes away in the end.
"To my fellow babies, This is your Doctor signing off."
Tallulah Bankhead, would've been 122, not 102. There was someone else mentioned early on in this video, who was born in 1948, and died this yr. He was either 73, or 74, not 79.
I will miss Howard Hessman. He was a great character actor. RIP to NYPD officers, Jose Perez & Wilbert Mora, who died in the line of duty.
Rest in peace everyone.🙏🏾✝️🌷💜
Legacy corrected it in comments.
That's because people don't proof read their work. Poor planning poor performance poor results. The new normal.
What's 20 years between actresses
RIP Howard Hessen. Loved you ask Dr Johnny Fever
RIP to all the families that lost ones 🙏 💔 😢 sadly you only hear about some people on legacy 🙏 💔 😞
I didn't know Howard Hesseman died. RIP all.
as a life long pirates fan I remember gene clines on of my favorite players rip
Miss USA? A successful attorney and she took her life at 30? Where is hope? 😪
Such a loss of a beautiful soul.
💔😪I just don't understand why?🕯️🕊️
Mermelstein was a hero in Army Intelligence! Murica!! 🇺🇸
I always heard you can't use Army and intelligence in the same sentence.
"GOODNIGHT, DR.JOHNNY FEVER"
Monica Vitti is probably one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen. Didn't know of her in life but she's visual perfection.
Lata Mageshekar Passed Away At The Age Of 92 She Was The Nightingale of India because of her voice please make obituary about her next
Gene Klien was a founding member of the Rock band 🔥KISS🔥. 🤘👹 RIP Gene.
Love watching your detailed listing! This one needs corrected for Tallulah Bankhead you said she was born 102 years ago when it's actually 120 years ago. Keep putting out excellent content!
Born 120 yrs ago. Died in 1968. She was a character. Would do things like liven up a dull party by doing sommersaults without any underwear on.
@@amberlights1 very talented actress! Love her movies!
@@amberlights1 Naughty lady! Some parties need livening up!
Not mentioned: Donald May, who played Adam Drake on The Edge Of Night, died January 28, 2022 at the age of 92!!
I love Tallulah in alfred Hitchcock's
Lifeboat !
RIP to all , they are ALL IRREPLACEABLE ! WE ! ALL ARE IRREPLACEABLE !
R I P, "ZAZULA"..!
Vachik Mangassarian was 74, not 79. 1948-2022 = 74.
