Untimely Passing: Vivian/Kellie Waymire - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Maestro · 11-19-2003, 01:06 PM

A moment of silence for the young actress we knew as Vivian, the gal who along with Georgie concidered pastrami to be the most sensual of all the salted, cured meats.
160 The Blood
Apparently, she was a busy actress.

Quite a few actors (list available) that have appeared on Seinfeld have passed, but I think at 35 years okd, Kellie was the youngest.
Love Life People, and live it... there are no guarantees!

How did she die?

Dutabi84 · 11-19-2003, 02:40 PM

They say unknown causes.

Dutabi84 · 11-19-2003, 02:41 PM

Weird bit of irony- didn't she say she was really sick, or had some kind of illness in that episode?

Brian Damage · 11-19-2003, 02:43 PM

Yes, I remember that.

sinatrastar · 11-19-2003, 03:18 PM

and she wanted Elaine to take over care for the kid.

Maestro · 11-19-2003, 05:26 PM

*
From 160 The Blood:

VIVIAN: Oh Elaine, that's so good to hear. I've been having a few health problems lately.

ELAINE: It's not serious, is it?

VIVIAN: Well, it might be. Just in case anything does happen, it's nice to know there's somebody like you around.

ELAINE: Oh yeah, that eh...that is nice to know. (Pours the juice from the bag back to glass.)

Maestro · 11-19-2003, 05:43 PM

Not to go off topic here, but another one I found grimly ironic:

73 The Masseuse
When Elaine was discussing with Joel Rifkin to change his name, because it was the name of a serial killer, a strangler.
Elaine says this:

E: "Well maybe you're not the Dion type. O.K. then let's see, let's see, what do we got? (looking at the magazine, she starts to gasp and loses it) Oh! Oh oh oh! O.J.! O.J. Rifkin! You don't even use a name, it's just initials. Oh please please please change your name to O.J.! Please, it would be so great!"

That line wouldn't have worked a few months later.

This ep aired November 18 1993, Nicole Brown and Ron Goldmen were murdered June 12, 1994.
Now that's pretty weird.

... talk about continued irreverence, of course Seinfeld parodied the slimball OJ slow chase, white Bronco & all in the last scene in 088 The Big Salad.

Brian Damage · 11-19-2003, 06:49 PM

It's kind of funny in a macabre way.

DarwinEx · 11-19-2003, 09:29 PM

Maybe all that pastrami got to her.

Brian Damage · 11-20-2003, 11:33 AM

It would've been funny though if Joel changed his name to O.J.

Wow, I noticed some on your list died sort of young.

Maestro · 12-10-2003, 03:02 PM

I know....
Seems like a pretty large list, but it's probably normal. A lot of people have appeared on the show and it's been a few years.

sinatrastar · 12-10-2003, 03:29 PM

Extensive list, solid work as always Maestro. I wonder if the show will still be on in syndication when one of the main characters passes on.
