RIP Markie Post  :\'(

She was totally gorgeous.

Night Court just took a hit less than a month ago when Charlie Robinson (Mac)  died.


Also last year when Paula Kelly, who played the public defender, checked out.

And in 2018 Harry Anderson set down his gavel for the last time.

I knew she was in Night Court, but I had not realised she was on the original "Card Sharks" as well.

Apparently she also served as a celebrity guest on other game shows.

R.I.P. Markie :\'(

And that just leaves Ellen Foley. Karen Austin, John Laroquette, John Astin, Richard Moll, and Marsha Warfield as the only six main characters left.

Sadly, Selma Hacker, the bailiff, was the first to go, in 1985.  :\'(

Both of the original bailiffs actually.

Selma Diamond died in 1985 and Florence Hallop died in 1986.  Both died from lung cancer.

She was terrific on Night Court - sad to say goodbye  :\'(  :\'(  :\'(

William Utay, who played Phil The Bum, is also still.alive.

I seem to remember her in some Lifetime type movies. Maybe it was the Christmas movies I see in her filmography.

Wow. I loved her and Charlie on Night Court. (Richard Moll was my favorite, and definitely John Larroquette.)

Night Court still alive roundup:
John Larroquette
Richard Moll
Marsha Warfield
Karen Austen
Ellen Foley
Gail Strickland (Public defender Sheila Gardiner, pilot only)
Mike Finneran (Art the handyman)
Will Utay (Bum Phil and his rich brother Will)
Yakov Smirnoff
John Astin
Denice Kumagai (Quon Le)
Brent Spiner
Daniel Frishman (Dan's vertically challenged boss) (Not to be confused with Dan Frischman of Head of the Class and Kenan & Kel)

I once met Harry Anderson at the Consumer Electronics Show in Chicago. Was probably 1989 or 1990.

He was a huge video game fan, and was there hawking one of the game console products to dealers.  8)

I was referring more to the main cast, not guest actors

It's kind of sad that Markie died a month after Charles Robinson died.

And only a month or so since BIZ Markie passed away.  :\'(
