Watching the Simpsons repeat this evening {The Who? I love bands!}, I was struck by how many people who have appeared as guest voices on the show are now no longer with us:
John Entwistle
Joey Ramone
Johnny Ramone
George Harrison
Linda McCartney
Barry White
Anyone else I should hoist a glass to?
Curses! Thread title should of course read Simpsons.
HELLO! Phil Hartman. You may remember him from such brutal murders as his own.
D’oh! He was more of a regular than a special guest voice though, wouldn’t you say? Still, the show was never the same without him.
Isn’t the woman who did Lunch Lady Doris also deceased?
Johnny Cash was the spirit guide coyote,
And Bob Hope was in an episode as well.
Well, Rodney Dangerfield (Burns’ son) just left us…
Others:
Steve Allen
Stephen Jay Gould
Werner Klemperer
Jack Lemmon
Linda McCartney
Tito Puente
Rod Steiger
Lawrence Tierney
Jim Varney
Paul Winfield
and most of the Ramones at this point
Whoops, sorry for a few repeats from the OP… :smack:
George Plimpton (“and a hot plate!”)
I was the first!
