Tom Bergeron is Dead to Me

DTM, Dancing with the Stars. DTM. (FYI, DTM means Dead to Me)


Also DTM... America. How do you vote off the Gutt? He was so smiley! LAME!


And check out the turtleneck ability of this guy! AWESOME.

UPDATE - A blogging montage to people left out of Oscar montages

In case you live under a rock, you know that the Academy Awards were last night. People won awards, wore stupid clothes, some looked pretty, and gave acceptance speeches. Whatever. One of my favorite parts of all awards shows are the montages. There were TONS of montages this year, which is always fun, and even some comedic montages. But the greatest montages are always the dead people montages. They remind us of awesome people who have passed, and people who we never knew existed also died too and worked in the movies and/or were agents (yessssssssss maybe one day I'll be on the ESPY awards dead people montage).

This year there seemed to be a lot of producers and "executives" in the montage. As someone I was watching with said, "If I had tons of money, I could greenlight a shitty movie. That's not art." Well said. What was most disturbing was the lack of certain dead people in this montage. I honor them here, because Oscars apparently wanted to make me angry.

Seriously, how could you NOT put Scheider on this list? Jaws was awesome. You FAIL. I was most deeply offended by the lack of him in the montage. Whatever... Roy Scheider (1932-2008), I'm here for you. I miss you. And Seaquest DSV... but that's a different story. He gets two pictures for being left out. Also he's from Jersey!

UPDATE: THE CUTOFF FOR DEAD PEOPLE MONTAGE AT THE OSCARS WAS JAN. 31ST. CATCH YA NEXT YEAR, SCHEIDER. This does not mean I miss him any less.

Next forgotten actor, no doubt overshadowed by Heath Ledger who died in the same week:

RENFRO! Brad Renfro (1982-2008), overdosed. Was in The Client. Was left out of dead people montage. This is what he looked like all grown up:

IMDB fun fact about Renfro - "Auditioned for the part of Gabriel Martin in The Patriot (2000), which eventually went to Heath Ledger, who died from an overdose of prescription drugs on January 22, 2008, exactly one week after Brad's death."

My suggested punishment for leaving these (and probably others) out of the dead people montage? WHEN YOU DIE YOU DON'T GET TO BE IN THE DEAD PEOPLE MONTAGE. Suck on that.
