We were watching an episode of Home Movies the other day when I could have sworn one of the characters was voiced by Mitch Hedberg, one of my favorite stand-up comedians. So I went to IMDB to check his profile and learned that he died a few months ago. I’m not sure if it was because I thought he was really cool, or that he was far too young, or what exactly, but it bugs me more than the usual “celebrity death”. Kind of like when John Ritter died. Another comic genius gone.
Comedy Central Presents: Mitch Hedberg will be on July 10th in case you’re interested in seeing someone who was truly entertaining.
