Remembering Freddie

Last night as I witnessed the uncut version of the pilot episode. I seen a interesting part near the end of the show. The camera shows Freddie inside the van wearing his yellow robe sitting in the far back of the Van playing his guitar. I loved the way he played even though it was what sounded a three cord melody. I then thought of Freddie and his other talents beside his acting. Imagining him playing the guitar for hours and his other well known talents. I wondered what he would be doing today if he was still here with us. Singing, doing instrumental music, all sorts of ideas came to my mind

I could see him hosting the Tonight Show, a daytime talk show, a 70's style game show, starring in his own sitcom (Like George Lopez), movies, doing a singing album. Doing like singing & comedy concerts. & We'd all follow him around to see him...
He'd also guest star on George Lopez show alot. Heck, they'd add him to the show as a new character.

I would love to see him as a drummer! I think he would be good at it--just like Tommy Lee!
PS--What the hey!?! They started over again last night with the pilot episode--I thought Goodlife was going to go through all the episodes in order!!

I could see him as a movie star. I could see him in countless movies.
He could play so many roles. From bad guy to good guy. Father-in-law, cop, detective, alien........ I could see him voicing countless cartoons. I could see him playing opposite so many Hollywood ladies and men. Could you see Freddie fighting a dual with Arnold Swartnegger? I can........ Or a dual with Bruce Willis, Or Benicio Torres? I could see him opposite Jennifer Lopez playing her father. Or her father in law. I could see him play a brother to Antonio Banderas. I could see him kissing alot of movie ladies too........

I could see him as a sort of Bruce Willis today....... Bruce has that sense of humor.... Bruce has musical talent...... and thats just two of Freddies strong personal characteristics that I believe Bruce also shares...He would be a great movie star if he were with us today but then he will ALWAYS be the star that shines in hours hearts.

I love Pam--it's been especially cool in recent years to see her on TV in shows like "Law and Order". But my feeling is that if things had worked out better, he woulda remained involved with Kitty Bruce, Lenny's daughter. They had so much in common--her first-hand knowledge of the destructiveness of mixing huge fame and drugs might have kept Freddie from sinking so deeply into that trap.
As for his career, Freddie coulda done almost anything, and I think he would have! He would probably have made several albums of original songs himself, as well as acting in movies and perhap a spin-off of CATM. (In regard to that, what I woulda loved to see was Chico marrying Nancy and being a dad to her daughter Morgan--with Ed living with them in some little house with a picket fence like they talked about in that episode, and Chico "inheriting" the garage!) Today he would be mentoring young comics--producing their albums, TV and film work--and maybe musicians. |

I just watched Zorro the Gay Blade the other night and I thought about how Freddie wanted to play Zorro. I still think he would have been great in the part. (Not necessarly that movie tho)

I always loved to see Freddie on Chico and the Man when his character Chico was all heated up about something. Something about seeing Freddie in such a bad mood was so exciting to see especially when he was physically moody. His gesters were so so sexy.
