Reprising my list of entertainers over 90 years old. I helped keep all but four of last year’s aged picks alive for another full year. In 2022 we lost the last of my over-100 picks (Marsha Hunt) and Angela Lansbury, Sidney Poitier, and Estelle Harris gave me a few points, but I’m hoping for a low score again this year to avoid losing any more of these great talents. (Well, I wouldn’t be terribly sad to see Clint Eastwood go.) As always, I’m playing the odds, not going for points. The maximum I could earn, if all of these wonderful actors dropped dead in early January, is 84. This is the youngest average batch since I started playing the Death Pool in 2017, and the first time that I don’t have anyone over 100 on my list. Eva Marie Saint is only 98, and the youngest, Barbara Eden, is 91. They’re listed in descending age.
