Each year as I compile the "Hat Squad" list of people important to Toobworld who have passed away, I always marvel at the connections that pop up. Like Jack Wild, who starred in 'HR Pufnstuf', passing away the same year as Lennie Weinrib, who did the voice of the title character. Or Richard Widmark and Abby Mann dying just a short time apart from each other - Widmark starred in "Judgement At Nuremberg" and Mann wrote it.
It's happened again this week, literally within a week's span. John Forsythe passed away at the age of 92 on April 1, and Christopher Cazenove died on Wednesday the 7th. On 'Dynasty' they played the Carrington brothers Blake and Ben.
As the Trickster once said, "Reality is boring, that's why I change it whenever I can."
I'm just "The Man Who Viewed Too Much", and "Inner Toob" is a blog exploring and celebrating the 'reality' of an alternate universe in which everything that ever happened on TV actually takes place.
Most of my theories about the TV Universe come from thinking inside the box and thus can't be proven. But I've never been one to shy away from a tall tale.....
Remember: "The more you watch, the more you've seen!"
