Damned fine sci fi writer. Her best may have been City On The Edge Of Forever on Star Trek: TOS.

and Oscar.

 

He's finally reunited with Mr Looper...er Hooper

 

 

Caroll's final Sesame Street appearance was during the 50th anniversary special that aired a month ago. What really amazes me is that he was able to perform those characters for 49 years

Thank you Big Bird.

well they definitely came in threes today (what are the odds that we lose Big Bird and Chef Louis from the Little Mermaid in the same day...hey come on it was either this or playing a murder victim in Disney's Inspector Gadget, don't forget I'm not as old as most of you)

I don't know who Juice Wrld is either, all I know is that he was just breaking out

Rising rap star Juice WRLD dead at 21. 

Put me in the who category but fits the thread of not really big time celebrity deaths.
