Rest in Peace, Gene Shalit (1926 - 2026)
Many of you remember Gene Shalit as the long-time film critic on the Today show, known for his oversized mustache, matching colorful bowties, and quick puns. He spent forty years reviewing movies for NBC before retiring in 2010.
Our latest video looks back at his career, his trademark style, and his life as he reached 100 years old before passing away on June 12, 2026.

𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗲, 𝗔𝗻𝗻𝗲 𝗦𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗻 (𝟭𝟵𝟰𝟵 - 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲) 💔
We are heartbroken to hear that the beloved actress Anne Schedeen has passed away at the age of 77. Best known as the wonderful mom, Kate Tanner, on the classic 80s sitcom ALF, she brought so much laughter into our living rooms. She also made memorable appearances on Three's Company and Marcus Welby, M.D.
Thank you for the beautiful memories, Annie. You will be deeply missed. Which of her classic roles was your favorite? 👇
