I know this site mostly chronicles host segment mentions and not movie segments, but I mainly recall Adam Rich being mentioned in the “BUZZ OFF, KID!!!” exchange from ‘Mitchell’
RIP, 54 is still pretty young…
He was also the voice of Presto in that Dungeons & Dragons cartoon from the Eighties.
I remember reading about when he became a breakout star on Eight Is Enough he was constantly being mobbed by….moms who wanted to pinch his cheeks (face) and muss his hair because he was so darn adorable.
“He’s surrounded by adoring housewives.”
A few years back Philip McKeon (Tommy from the TV version of Alice) died young as well. 55! We were about the same age. Tough to lose these actors I grew up with. My thought was always that they had it great. And I had no idea I was only a few years older than Rich. But I did know years later he had lots of problems.
After all these years I still love D&D. That show aged very well. Highly recommend it to fans of D&D and vintage cartoons.
