Merry Christmas - Don't Forget To Join Us on Twitter and Facebook; Remembering Connie Hines

Merry Christmas everyone! We hope you are enjoying the holiday whether you celebrate it or not. Thanks for taking a bit of your time out today for visiting. And also thanks for continuing to visit everyday, as we near five years of everyday posting! As a reminder, don't forget to follow us on Twitter and be a fan of SitcomsOnline on Facebook. We welcome your thoughts, opinions and discussions! So join in on the action on both of those as well! We are everywhere--SitcomsOnline.com, the message board, the blog, Twitter, Facebook, and more! It's certainly "all sitcoms, all the time!" Merry Christmas and god bless us everyone, as Tiny Tim would say!

Tomorrow Todd will do his annual sitcom stars deaths for the past year right here on the blog, so you won't want to miss our tribute to every single sitcom star who passed away in 2009. As a lead-in (we like to throw in TV terms!) to that tomorrow, we will pay tribute today to Connie Hines. Connie passed away last Friday (Dec. 18, 2009) at her Beverly Hills home from complications of heart problems. She was best known for her role as Wilbur's (Alan Young) wife on the popular 1960s television sitcom Mister Ed. She has not acted since the early '70s, so many younger viewers probably don't know who she is, unless they caught an episode or two of Mister Ed on TV. She guest starred on series such as The Millionaire, The Untouchables, Bronco, Sea Hunt, Perry Mason, Bonanza, Love American Style, and The Mod Squad. As you can see, she was in a lot of dramas, but her regular role on the comedy Mister Ed is what everyone knows her for.
She will deeply be missed. Connie was 78.
