HAT SQUAD TVXOHOF - GEORGE MICHAEL

Michael: 

Your Uncle Gob seems to think that he saw you down at the docks today. Was that you?

George Michael: 

No. No. Maybe it was the other George Michael. 

You know, the singer-songwriter.

Michael: 

Yeah, that makes sense.

'Arrested Development'

From the BBC:

Singer George Michael has died aged 53, his publicist has said.

The star, who launched his career with Wham! in the 1980s and later continued his success as a solo performer, is said to have "passed away peacefully at home".

Thames Valley Police said South Central Ambulance Service attended a property in Goring in Oxfordshire at 13:42 GMT.

Police say they were treating the death as unexplained but there were no suspicious circumstances.

I was hoping the memorial tributes for departed members of the League of Themselves in 2016 would have ended with Zsa Zsa Gabor.  So far, I'm holding out hope that I won't need to post the induction I now have ready for Carrie Fisher.  But I never could have expected George Michael would go so soon......

Here are the greatest moments for the fictional televersion of the British pop singer:

Eli Stone: 

What do I do if George Michael comes back?
Nathan Stone: 

Get an autograph.
