RIP Nichelle Nichols, best known for her role as Lt. Uhura in the original Star Trek and as the groundbreaking first black woman to kiss a white guy on TV.



Only 3 left now. Just the gold shirts, no less.

Also, love that scene. Nothing in recent Trek history even comes close to that level of enlightenment in this day and age.

We in the UK are (for obvious reasons) but it will be on the day of the funeral (19 September).

Damn, was not expecting that at all. I know when I read any of the comics it was his voice I heard as Batman. RIP Kevin Conroy, you will be missed.

After the last string of deaths I'm sad to say that I consider this good news. There's been too many cancer and accidental deaths this year, so it's weirdly relieving to hear that someone died at a ripe old age from simply being old. And by the sounds of it, he went peacefully. Really can't ask for better than that.

Can't believe I never commented on Angelo Badalamenti. His work on Twin Peaks is a big part of what made it memorable. RIP, you will be missed.

It's a shame he never got to reprise his role one last time for the recently released Return to Monkey Island, having been retired. But at least he gave his blessing to recast the role.

Heard about her passing and this sucks, such a young age. She did a great job as the Borg Queen in Picard season 2, so vile yet vulnerable at the same time, brilliant acting (also gotta respect how she'd put up with a make-up that took hours to create, all the while during her illness).

Awesome work from when I first saw him in The Wire, and then after in Quantum Break, Horizon: Zero Dawn, and of course the John Wick series. RIP.
