Alf’s mother, Anne Schedeen, is dead at 77:
Roy Hattersley, significant UK Labour politician, dead at 93.
Update:
Bonnie Tyler has come out of her coma a month later, though reports say she’s still “very unwell.”
I’d never heard of this guy, but honestly, his death comes as no surprise.
Per the family
(My bold)
She wasn’t Alf’s mom. She was Lyn and Brian’s mom on the show ALF. Alf himself (real name Gordon Shumway) was a freeloader living in their garage.
Huh.
Somehow, I misremembered his name as ‘Gordon Sumner’. I was convinced the ALF character had been named after Sting for reasons unknown.
RIP ALF’s landlady.
I got excited there for a minute. I looked it up and I have Andy Bell.
Yeah, I saw this earlier. They meant Alf’s(the show’s) mom.
Sting’s birth name.
Yes, he said as such.
I would love to see a Sting-Alf duet, though.
Corey Feldman has been hospitalized after suffering a medical emergency on a flight from Chicago to Las Angeles.
Initial speculation was pancreatitis or gallstones. Gallstones have since been ruled out.
