    From Adam H. Kerman@3:633/10 to All on Wed Aug 26 18:34:11 2026
    Another famous operson dies at age 80.

    Tim Curry had numerous television credits. Best It adaptation, wouldn't
    you say?

    Oh my, that's 2 celebrity deaths in 2 days. Who's another 80 year old
    who we might be hearing of their death.

    Yeah, bummer. Though I believe in Curry's case, prior stroke(s?) had
    basically forced him into retirement years ago.

    Only Part 1. Like the movies, Part 1 was superior, but Part 2 was a
    large letdown (and Part 2 was a bigger letdown in the TV miniseries than
    it was in the movies).

    No, Skarsgard's Pennywise (and the film in general) is much more frightening than the 90s mini-series.

    ...though they should've stopped at Part 1.

    Oh my, that's 2 celebrity deaths in 2 days.

    Three, when you count Shelley Fabares less than a week ago.
