He will always be George Jefferson to me. RIP Title: Re: Sherman Hemsley died Post by: indianasmith on July 24, 2012, 05:03:57 PM So long, George, and thanks for all the laughs! RIP
Title: Re: Sherman Hemsley died Post by: Allhallowsday on July 24, 2012, 07:35:30 PM Good night, SHERMAN. We all loved you. (I still quote George Jefferson from time to time: "Gimme room!")
Title: Re: Sherman Hemsley died Post by: JaseSF on July 24, 2012, 08:29:29 PM R.I.P. Sherman Hemsley. As George Jefferson, you constantly made me laugh as I watched reruns of "The Jeffersons" as a kid. Heck you even made a movie starring Hulk Hogan a bit more tolerable. Hope you've moved on up.
Title: Re: Sherman Hemsley died Post by: AndyC on July 25, 2012, 09:26:43 AM The celebrities who entertained me so much as a kid just keep leaving us. Sherman Hemsley is almost more of a surprise than Andy Griffith was. We never really saw Sherman get old (and 74 ain't that old).
Been actually thinking about which stars of my favourite pre-1980 shows are still living. Gee, I hope Ed Asner and Russell Johnson are OK.
