Darn. I used to love that show. I remember some years ago he was giving acting lessons in NYC. I was tempted to take a class for laughs. Maybe Nickolodeon or TV Land will do a marathon.

Honk!

I've had that damned opening theme music for What's Happening running (or re-running?) through my head ever since I read about this.

Scrubs is gonna have to be more careful about picking guest stars or it's gonna get a reputation. With John Ritter, now Fred Berry... Jimmie Walker has got to be scared right now.

Joking aside, this is indeed sad news.

I remember him being a kick ass "Pop- Locker" back in the day.

So basically all the fat people on What's Happening are dead. Shirley, Momma, and now Re-Run.

Hey Hey Hey...

What the world needs now... is a Flash animation of one of Rerun's famous dances!

And I've got his infamous bootleg recording of the Doobie Brothers' concert.


By the way, what was the tall skinny kid's name? His mom used to call him Roger, but I remember seeing a birthday banner for him that said "Happy Birthday Raj"?

Death must have been weight-related. RIP Re-run.

Tall guy was Roger. Rog or Raj for short.
