Michael Che's Third Netflix Special; Remembering Dennis Haskins of Saved by the Bell

Michael Che: Shot in Minnesota is premiering globally on Netflix October 13. Michael Che brings his next hour-long stand-up special to Netflix, taped at First Avenue in Minneapolis. The special premieres globally on Netflix October 13.

This marks the comedian's third Netflix stand-up special following Michael Che Matters (2016) and Michael Che: Shame the Devil (2021).

Actor Dennis Haskins, who starred as Principal Richard Belding in Saved by the Bell and Saved by the Bell: The New Class, has died. He died at his home in Burbank, California, on September 27. He had been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease eight years earlier. Mr. Haskins was 75.

Haskins first appeared as Mr. Belding in the 1988-1989 Disney Channel sitcom Good Morning, Miss Bliss. The series focuses on the life of junior high school teacher Miss Carrie Bliss (Hayley Mills) at John F. Kennedy Junior High in Indianapolis. Haskins played the school principal, Mr. Richard Belding. The cast included Joan Ryan, Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Max Battimo, Dustin Diamond, Heather Hopper, Lark Voorhies and T. K. Carter.

He starred as Principal Richard Belding in the 1989-1993 NBC sitcom Saved by the Bell. It was broadcast on Saturday mornings as the flagship series in NBC's TNBC lineup. The show follows a group of high school friends and their principal at the fictional Bayside High School in Los Angeles. Richard Belding is the principal of Bayside High School. His signature catchphrase is "Hey, hey, hey, hey! What is going on here?", usually uttered after walking in on something ridiculous occurring at the school. The series also starred Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Mario Lopez, Dustin Diamond, Tiffani-Amber Thiessen, Elizabeth Berkley, Lark Voorhies, Ed Alonzo (1989-1990) and Leanna Creel (1992-1993).

Haskins continued the role of Principal Richard Belding in the 1993-2000 NBC sitcom Saved by the Bell: The New Class. It ran for seven seasons on NBC as a part of the network's TNBC Saturday morning line-up. The show had the same concept as the original series but featured a new group of students roaming the halls of the fictional Bayside High School. The cast was constantly revolving, with Haskins as the only constant throughout all seven seasons. Screech returned to Bayside High to work as Mr. Belding's assistant as part of a work/study program starting in the second season.

He appeared as Richard Belding in a 2012 episode of Victorious. Haskins, Diamond, Gosselaar, Voorhies and Lopez did their own voices in a Saved by the Bell Saw parody, called "Sawed by the Bell", on "Boo Cocky", in a season three episode of Robot Chicken in 2008. On February 4, 2015, he reunited with Gosselaar, Berkley, Lopez and Thiessen on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where they appeared in a Saved by the Bell sketch with Fallon.

Some of his sitcom guest appearances included Archie Bunker's Place, Nothing Is Easy, Frank's Place, Doctor Doctor, Hangin' with Mr. Cooper, Malibu, CA (1999), It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, How I Met Your Mother (2 episodes), Jennifer Falls, New Girl and Hot in Cleveland.

(1986), The Twilight Zone (1987), Ohara, The Practice (2001), 7th Heaven, JAG, Men of a Certain Age (3 episodes), Mad Men and I'm Dying Up Here.

We also remember actor Gerrit Graham. He starred as Leonard Scribner in Stockard Channing in Just Friends and voiced Franklin Sherman in The Critic. He died of complications from lung disease on September 15 in Rhinebeck, New York. Mr. Graham was 77.

Graham starred as Leonard Scribner in the short-lived 1979 CBS sitcom Stockard Channing in Just Friends (also known as Just Friends). The series revolves around health spa assistant manager Susan Hughes (Stockard Channing), whose marriage is falling apart. Leonard Scribner is her kooky neighbor. The cast included Mimi Kennedy, Lou Crisculo, Sydney Goldsmith, Joan Tolentino, Albert Insinnia, Liz Torres, Rhonda Fox and Linda Rose.

He was the voice of Franklin Sherman in the 1994 ABC and 1995 Fox animated sitcom The Critic. The show follows the life of a 36-year-old film critic from New York named Jay Sherman, voiced by Jon Lovitz. Jay Sherman's wealthy adoptive parents, Franklin and Eleanor (Judith Ivey), paid little attention to him. The voice cast included Christine Cavanaugh, Nancy Cartwright, Doris Grau, Nick Jameson, Maurice LaMarche, Charles Napier, Park Overall, Tress MacNeille, Kath Soucie and Russi Taylor.

Graham had a recurring role as Dr. Norman Pankow in six episodes of the Fox sitcom Parker Lewis Can't Lose from 1990 to 1992.

Mr. Graham was a talented and versatile character actor. He was a familiar face with over 100 television and film credits. We thank him for his work on television and in films. He will be sorely missed.

Television writer and producer Jim Geoghan co-created and executive produced Disney Channel's The Suite Life of Zack & Cody and its spin-off The Suite Life on Deck. He died from dementia at his home in Los Angeles, California, on September 6. Mr. Geoghan was 79.

The Mary Tyler Moore Show centers on Mary Richards (Mary Tyler Moore), a 30-year-old single woman who moves to Minneapolis to start a new life after a romantic break-up. There she re-acquaints with Phyllis (Cloris Leachman), who rents her a room, and meets her upstairs neighbor, Rhoda (Valerie Harper), who becomes her best friend. Mary unexpectedly lands a job as associate producer at the TV station WJM, where she works alongside her bristly boss, Lou (Ed Asner); the comical newswriter, Murray (Gavin MacLeod); and the newscast’s often-incompetent anchor, Ted (Ted Knight). Later seasons saw the addition of sharp-tongued Sue Ann (Betty White) to the newsroom, and the eventual departure of Leachman and Harper to their own individual spin-off series. The show cultivated its comedy from workplace relationships, family issues, and the characters’ quirky personality traits.
