Default Garry Marshall Has Passed Away
It is with great regret to inform you that TV creator Gary Marshall has passed away today. Gary is known for a ridiculous amount of TV and is very responsible for the comedians we have today.

Rest in peace my friend. I'll miss your genius.

And for those who have a hard time accepting this, there's re-runs.

He was a brilliant comedy mind.

He actually managed to make a movie about kidnapping, illegal confinement and rape very funny.

RIP

Do you think the cause of death was in any way related to Scott "chachi" Baio's recent appearance at the RNC convention and endorsement of Trump?

I says yes.

I knew of him, but it wasn't until Paul F Tompkins started doing him as a character that I learned what a genius he was. He had a hand in so many iconic TV shows and movies. He'll definitely be missed.

Please, call him Garry.

Here are 8 of Marshall's best quotes:
  • "There is more to life than show business."
  • "It's always helpful to learn from your mistakes because then your mistakes seem worthwhile."
  • "If you’ve got the comedy eye, you can look at any situation and see the humor in it while others don’t."
  • "Learn to work with people you wouldn't go to lunch with."
  • "Never underestimate the power of your sister."
  • "There's no better satisfaction than writing. I feel that writing is the best and everything else comes with it."
  • "You go to a theater now and you literally see parents watching the movie and they suddenly cover their kid's ears. I figured I'd make one movie where they didn't have to do this."
  • "I don't sit well. I like to move around as I talk."
