#RIP Loni Anderson: She passed on Jennifer in ‘WKRP in Cincinnati’ “because she’s just here to deliver messages and is window dressing,” she recalled. But then Hugh Wilson said, “Let’s make her look like Lana Turner and be the smartest person in the room.” hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/lon…
#RIP Jonathan Kaplan. What a career, from ‘Night Call Nurses,’ ‘Truck Turner’ (!!) and ‘White Line Fever’ to ‘Heart Like a Wheel’, ‘Love Field,’ ‘Bad Girls,’ ‘ER’ and, of course, ‘The Accused.’ Van Heflin was his uncle, and Erica Kane’s mom was his mom. hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-n…
#RIP Alfie Wise. He appeared in 12 films/TV shows with pal Burt Reynolds, including ‘The Cannonball Run,’ ‘Smokey and the Bandit,’ ‘Hooper’ & ‘B.L. Stryker.’ “His films were like an ongoing block party,” Wise said. “I think the audience caught on to that.” hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-n…
