Robert Blake, TV's Baretta Who Was Tried for Murder, Dies at 89

Missed this one back in January.  "Charles Kimbrough, a stage and screen actor best known for his performance as anchorman Jim Dial on the CBS comedy series "Murphy Brown," died Jan. 11 in Culver City, Calif. He was 86 years old."

I actually associate him more with the voice of Victor in Disney's Hunchback of Notre Dame and also as Georges Seurat in the musical 'Sunday in the Park With George', despite having watched quite a bit of Murphy Brown when it was on TV.  Must be the theater geek in me!

The Australian comedian Barry Humphries, best known for his drag character Dame Edna Everage, has died aged 89. https://www.cnn.com/2023/04/22/celebrities/barry-humphries-dame-edna-dies-intl/index.html

Although I've seen clips of him as Edna, what I most associate him with is the voice of the great white shark Bruce in Finding Nemo.  Years later, when I watched the first Hobbit movie, I immediately recognized the voice of the goblin king, which he also provided.
