all the 3 stooges r gone

but The 3 Stooges wasn't a TV show, though.

"THE JACK BENNEY SHOW"-Jack Benny, his wife Zelda Marx (how many people knew that? So many people thought it was really Mary Livingstone-her show character- though that she had her name changed to that) Eddie Anderson (Rochester), Dennis Day, Don Wilson, Phil Harris, Mel Blanc.

"THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES"-Buddy Ebsen, Irene Ryan, Raymond Bailey, Nancy Kulp, Harriet McGibbon.

but The 3 Stooges wasn't a TV show, though.

actually it was they had their own show called three stooges al though i never watched them

does flintstones count their all gone

Treky's right, There never was a 3 stooges tv show except for that stupid 3 Robonic Stooges cartoon. The Three Stooges shorts that have aired on tv were originally shown in theaters just like Our Gang/Little Rascals.

oh sorry the shorts was what i was thinking of my apologies i use see them listed on tbs sometimes so i thought it was real tv show m bad.didnt mean cause any contervesry .


did anyone list gimme a break n sanford and son

The Addams Family - Carolyn Jones, Jackie Coogan, Ted Cassidy & Blossom Rock are died.

THE 3 STOOGES did make a lot of TV appearences though and they made 2 pilots. (Moe even hosted a talk show once)

Green Acres - just about every scene you can go, "he's dead - she's dead - Arnold's dead....."

I think Eb is the only surviving regular cast member.

Chico and the Man is another.

^^^ Frank Cady (Mr. Drucker) is still alive as are Sid Melton and Mary Grace Canfield (The Monroe brothers)

I wonder what shape they're all in. Frank looked ancient back in the 60s!!:lol:in that introduction he gives on "THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES AND PETTICOAT JUNCTION ULTIMATE COLLECTION" DVD he looks pretty good (however, that was made a few years ago).

THE 3 STOOGES did make a lot of TV appearences though and they made 2 pilots. (Moe even hosted a talk show once)oops, my mistake! They DID have a cartoon show in the 60s; called "THE NEW THREE STOOGES".

Holy Smokes they all are! Sid is 88, Mary Grace is 82 and Frank is 93!!!!!

Correct and Richard L. Bare who directed all 158 episodes is still alive and apparently in very good health. He turned 99 back in August and a few months ago was talking about bringing the show back.

God bless Charles Lane. He appeared on almost all the shows listed here!! :cool:

What's Happening!! - Isn't ironic how all of the heavy-set cast members on this show aren't with us? Mabel King (Mama Thomas), Shirley Hemphill, and Fred "Rerun" Berry aren't with us.

Gilligan's Island - Bob Denver, Alan Hale, Jr., and Jim Backus.

So, he was in that at the same time he was doing "PETTICOAT JUNCTION" and the first season of "GREEN ACRES".

Hawaii Five-O - if you just wanna talk about the 1st 4 seasons, then:
Jack Lord, Kam Fong, and Zulu all passed away, leaving only James MacArthur (Danno) as the sole survivor of the original cast from the 1st 4 seasons.

Then you also had: Herman Wedemeyer (Duke), Richard Denning (The Governor), Moe Keale (Truck in S12), Khiegh Diegh (Wo Fat) who all passed away as well.

Only Wedemeyer and Keale were in the opening credits.

Family Affair: Brian Keith, Anissa Jones, Sebastian Cabot. RIP

Courtship of Eddies Father: Bill Bixby, Miyoshi Umeki, James Komack RIP

What gets me is that there are still shows from the fifties where more than half the cast is alive, such as Leave it to Beaver.

Bernard Fox, Erin and Diane Murphy and the twins that played Adam. There may be another one or 2 but I'm not certain at the moment.

I wasn't sure about Bernard Fox, but I thought the kids on Bewitched were irrelevant. To me Bewitched was all about Samantha, Darren, and Gladys.

oops, my mistake! They DID have a cartoon show in the 60s; called "THE NEW THREE STOOGES".

Yes, and not only did Moe Howard, Larry Fine and Joe DeRita supply the
voices for their animated counterparts, they also appeared onscreen in
live-action wraparounds.

June Foray (Rocky, Natasha, Nell Fenwick) is the sole surviving member of The Bullwinkle Show. Bill Scott (Bullwinkle, Peabody, Dudley Do-Right), William Conrad (narrator), Paul Frees (Boris Badenov, Insp. Fenwick), Edward
Everett Horton (Fractured Fairy Tales narrator), Walter Tetley (Sherman),
Charlie Ruggles (Aesop), Daws Butler (Aesop Jr.), and Hans Conreid (Snidely
Whiplash) are all deceased.

On The Flintstones, Alan Reed and Henry Corden (who both voiced Fred
Flintstone), Jean Vander Pyl (Wilma), Mel Blanc (Barney Rubble) and Bea Benadaret (Betty Rubble) are gone.

On The Jetsons, Janet Waldo (Judy) is the only member of the original
cast still with us. George O'Hanlon (George), Penny Singleton (Jane), Daws
Butler (Elroy), Don Messick (Astro), and Jean Vander Pyl (Rosie) are all gone.

Get Smart - Don Adams, Edward Platt (The chief), Robert Korvelas (Larabee) are all dead.

also Bernie Kopell who played Zigfried.

Daws Butler also did Barneys voice on "THE FLINSTONES" for a few episodes in either the 1st or 2nd season (I forget which) while Mel Blanc was recovering from an auto accident. And someone else (I forget who) took over the voice of Betty in the, I think, 2nd or 3rd season (it was probably when Bea Benedaret started doing "PETTICOAT JUNCTION")

"THE JACK BENNY SHOW"-besides Jack, his wife Zelda (who played Mary Livingstone), Don Wilson, Eddie "Rochester" Anderson, Mel Blanc, and Dennis Day are all gone.

also Bernie Kopell who played Zigfried.

I thought he was still alive?

With the recent death of Ricardo Montalban, Fantasy Island now lost pretty much most to almost all of its cast members.

The guy that played Tatu, is gone I think.

His replacement, who is none other than Mr. Belvdere himself, aka Christopher Hewett is gone, too.

I thought he was still alive?

He is.

The guy that played Tatu, is gone I think.


Yes, he commited suicide quite awhile back

Harry Endo who played Che Fong the Forensic Scientist died Jan. 9th, 2009.

He is.
I thought so.

All of the Cast members of The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show are gone, since Ronnie Burns died a few years ago.

Thanks, Charles.

He is.
are you sure? I thought he died a year ago.

exept for Joyce Randollph, Jane Kean, and (I think) Elaine Stritch, all of the cast of "THE HONEYMOONERS" is gone.

are you sure? I thought he died a year ago.

Positive, If Bernie Kopell had passed away someone here or myself would've posted it.

Daws Butler also did Barneys voice on "THE FLINSTONES" for a few episodes in either the 1st or 2nd season (I forget which) while Mel Blanc was recovering from an auto accident. And someone else (I forget who) took over the voice of Betty in the, I think, 2nd or 3rd season (it was probably when Bea Benedaret started doing "PETTICOAT JUNCTION")

Gerry Johnson took over the voice of Betty Rubble on The Flintstones in seasons 5 & 6, since Bea Benederet was too busy w/ Petticoat Junction by 1964 to continue w/ The Flintstones. According to Wikipedia, though, she died in 1966, just after The Flintstones ended and even before Bea Benederet died.

I think he only passed away last year - I remember it was fairly recent.

Thanks Monika and Zoneboy. I remember reading about his death on Sitcoms online, but I wasn't sure when he died. I thought it was longer than a year ago. Thanks again guys for setting me straight. :)

This makes me appreciate some of the reunion shows and movies! Green Acres, although many consider a bad show, brought back much of the original cast in 1990. Then Eva Gabor, Pat Butram and Alvy Moore all past away with a few years after.

It always astonished me how many people on Bewitched had untimely deaths. Elizabeth Montgomery, Dick York, Dick Sargent, Agnes Moorhead, Paul Lynde and David White, all were in their '50's or 60's. And Alice Pierce even younger!

Add Eartha Kitt (Catwoman #3). Also, Bruce Lee's Kato technically, was a good guy. It's just that because on the Green Hornet show, the Hornet and Kato were constantly smeared by the press and cops.

I forgot to edit the post after Eartha passed away so thanks for the heads-up. You're right about Bruce but since he was regarded as a villain I decided to included him. Eartha was actually Catwoman # 2 as far as the series is concerned, Lee Meriwether doesn't count since she only appeared in the movie.

I have another one:

Dragnet (both the 1950s and the 1960s versions lost most to all of their cast members)

1960s Dragnet - both Jack Webb, Harry Morgan, and George Fenneman are not with us.

1950s Dragnet - Jack Webb, Ben Alexander, Barton Yarborough, Barney Phillips are all gone

Harry Morgan is very much alive at almost 94 years old!

According to Wikipedia, though, she died in 1966, just after The Flintstones ended and even before Bea Benederet died.

That's why I like this site so much, you always learn something new. I never knew Gerry Johnson died. I wondered why there was a new voice for Betty in Pebbles and Bamm Bamm Show, and The Flintstone Comedy Hour.

Harry Morgan is very much alive at almost 94 years old!

I thought at 1st he was gone, but WHOA!!! :eek:

Good to hear he's alive and well!

The Golden Girls - w/ Bea Arthur's recent death, TGG now only has Rue and Betty left.

Yep and there was two. RIP Bea and Estelle.

Harry Morgan is very much alive at almost 94 years old!

I know, I was about to post that myself. Dang, good for him. I remember when he was in State Fair in 1945 - and he wasn't exactly a spring chicken then! :lol:

And on that note, how about giving some credit to the casts of F Troop and I Dream of Jeannie? For shows that premiered over forty years ago, just about everyone is still alive! (I think Hayden Rorke and Emmaline Henry are the only ones gone from I Dream of Jeannie; Forrest Tucker and Frank DeKova from F Troop). Everyone else is hanging in there!

er, Mary's real name is Sadie Marx, not Zelda :)

Bringinghis thread back from the dead:

MacGyver - Dana Elcar (Pete Thornton) is no longer with us. He had been diagnosed with glaucoma since 1991 and later passed away in June of 2005. Only Richard Dean Anderson is with us.

Billy Bird Benson

Billy Bird Benson
who's that?:confused:

who's that?:confused:

Billy Bird played Mrs. Rose Cassidy during the final 2 seasons of "Benson" (1984-86).

She also worked on NBC's "Dear John" (1988-92) w/ Judd Hirsch.

It always astonished me how many people on Bewitched had untimely deaths. Elizabeth Montgomery, Dick York, Dick Sargent, Agnes Moorhead, Paul Lynde and David White, all were in their '50's or 60's. And Alice Pierce even younger!
David White was 74.

They had recurring roles. Another who passed away is Howard Caine.

The thread starter didn't say that recurring stars were not included so why I'm being corrected is beyond me. :confused:

Hogans Heroes:

Episodes = 168

Leon Askin = 67 episodes

Sigrid Valdis = 53 episodes

Howard Caine = 39 episodes

I'd say that Hochstetter was a recurring character as well.

Reviving this thread from the dead:

Hardcastle and McCormick - Only Brain Keith passed away. Otherwise this show only has 1/2 of its cast left.

B.J. and the Bear - Only Claude Akins is not with us.
