It looks like the comedy world has lost another one of its great talents. While Mitch may not have had the broad impact and recognizability of Chris Farley or Phil Hartman, he still left some mighty big shoes to fill.
While I haven’t yet seen an offical cause, or even date, of death. It is easy to fathom a fate similar to Farley’s. Sadly, I can’t say that I’m totally surprised.
Mitch, you made a lot of people happy through the years. You will be missed.
Update: The first actual news report of his death that I have located..
Wha Says:
Comedians seem to be very self destruvtive in one way or another (drugs, cancer, shitty wives)…
Farley, Belushi, Candy, Kinison, Hartman, Kaufman, Bill Hicks, Lenny Bruce, and now Mitch Hedberg.
