          A huge contributor to popular culture in the US, shaping the perception of society in the TV shows he created by giving a voice to underrepresented populations and points of view in network television, especially in the 70s (All in the Family, Sanford and Sons, etc.). A strong, positive, and hilarious voice for change. He will be missed. RIP, Norman.

          Lear brought in George to be the black bigot to Archie's white bigot. What does their popularity say about us?

            Matthew Perry cause of death - ketamine

            He was getting ketamine infusions to treat depression and had one about 10 days before dying. But the half life of the drug is a few hours and his level was in the midrange (what was Michael Jackson using?) so he may have been supplementing and passed out in the hot tub.

            He was also on buprenorphine
