91 a great life....r.i.p.
but hold up, he aint WRONG
Damn, RIP. 91 was a damn good long life. RIP
R.I.P. to Slide Huxtable
I always knew the voice of panthro was a black dude. Panthro was the strongest so they get a black man which is supposed to represents strength.
I saw the front page announcement of Ann Wedgeworth's passing. @playahaitian That's a hot pic there!
I didn't know anything about Earle Hyman's passing until I read this thread. @World B Free He spoke Norwegian??? Wow!!!

You ain't lying. My grandfather held me as a baby. I was born in February and he died the 3rd of September (yeah, Papa was a rolling Stone) and my dad's father died in '62. The Cosby show was like the family I always wanted.
Push play to bring him back to life. I may watch the Cosby show today
RIP, it appears he lived a great life. A long one too!
Wow, he had a great run RIP
RIP
lol....here he is on Norwegian television, & the White folks keep on saying "Naggar." Sounds Too close to the English N-Word for me ..lol..I guess that's the Norwegian language, huh?
"Only 287 people a night can be seated in the John Houseman Theater to watch Hyman play Hoke, but he's seen by millions in his TV appearances on "The Cosby Show."
His earnings from television enabled Hyman to buy a house in Norway, where he frequently appears on the stage.
'The only place I'm a star in the true sense of the word is Norway,' he says. "There they come to see me and hope the play is all right. I'm the only foreign actor and only black actor who performs in both Norwegian languages.'
Hyman says that the first time he took a vacation, during his five years at the American Shakespeare Festival in Stratford, Conn., he visited Scandinavia. He wound up staying the entire three weeks in Norway, the home of his longtime lady friend."
'The first time I stepped on that soil I fell in love with it," he says. "I felt I'd been there before.'
In Norway, Hyman met the grandson of Henrik Ibsen, the famous dramatist, who introduced him to theater people."

Rest In Peace
Feels like a member of the family is gone. R.I.P.
R.I.P. Thanks for your contribution to the art of acting.
Not sure if you're serious but living to 120 is my personal goal.
120, disease free and being able to still do everything by myself preparing meals, getting around, bathing etc.
I want to still be doing my long distance bicycling events well into my 80s and even 90s!
I always liked that brotha.
R. I. P.
RIP
As I kid I dreamed of being prime minster and killing every single Indian that I could get my hands on. When I moved here I learned that people that turn 100 get a note from the president. It will be the closest I will ever get to power. I’ve sat in on a couple mayors centurion birthday bash.
RIP.
I'm ashamed to admit that I didn't know much about his work beyond The Cosby Show and Thundercats but I always really enjoyed his performances...
Thanks for the memories Mr. Hyman...
Also gone from us on Thursday:
Ann Wedgeworth aka "Lana" from Three's Company
She was 89 years old when she passed.
RIP.
She will best be remembered as Jack's sexy neighbor who was ALWAYS trying to give him some pu--y.
But the dumb idiot always refused to hit it. God, I used to HATE him for that!!!!
Also Malcolm Young(co-founder/guitarist of AC DC)
Rest In Peace!
RIP
