Members All My Shadows Posted June 29, 2024 Members Share Posted June 29, 2024 He was letter-perfect as the Gimble brothers on Mary Hartman, and of course, a familiar face to those of us who grew up on Roseanne and Sabrina. A great loss. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Contessa Donatella Posted July 2, 2024 Members Share Posted July 2, 2024 (edited) OMG, I love SHAMPOO. Reading the entire thing, I was knocked over by his life, his times & his amazing contributions. I was one who loved PERSONAL BEST.

Members DRW50 Posted July 2, 2024 Members Share Posted July 2, 2024 So many legends have left us lately. I didn't remember that he was another who was brought up in the business by Roger Corman. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted July 2, 2024 Members Share Posted July 2, 2024 (edited) "Chinatown" is a brilliant movie: one that's as relevant today as it was when it premiered. He will be missed. Edited July 2, 2024 by Khan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted July 3, 2024 Members Share Posted July 3, 2024 Towne was a complicated man but a screenwriting legend. Shampoo, The Last Detail and the imperfect but often brilliant lesbian sports drama Personal Best (a clear precursor to Challengers) stay with me especially. I do wonder if his Chinatown prequel series with David Fincher for Netflix will now happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted July 9, 2024 Members Share Posted July 9, 2024 (edited) [!@#$%^&*]. Doug Sheehan always reminded me of James Stewart with his boyish good looks, quirky sense of humor and easy-going nature. No matter what kind of vehicle he was in - whether it was a soap (like GH or KL) or a sitcom ("Day by Day") or some cheesy TV movie - he always brought a sense of integrity to his role. (Which is why watching his exit storyline on KL is REALLY hard for me, because you could tell he was struggling with that material, for a number of reasons). I always wanted GH to bring him back (on a recurring basis) as Joe Kelly: still a gumshoe, still funny and charming, but maybe a little more weary on account of age and having seen it all many times over. Ah, well. Edited July 9, 2024 by Khan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 9, 2024 Members Share Posted July 9, 2024 That would have been great. I saw someone on Twitter saying the old GH fans never stopped wanting him back, which shows his appeal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
