Hmmm...

Who is Phil Hartman and why was he killed?

Phil Harman was on Saturday Night Live for a long time, around the time that Chris Farley and Adam Sandler were on. He also did the voices of Troy McClure and Lionel Hutz on The Simpsons for a long time. His wife went nutters one day and killed him and herself, and their kids had to go live with a relative or something. I think they said she was very mentally unballanced, and had stopped medication or something. But yeah. Very, very sad story. :( He was so, so funny. I adored him.

Oh... that's sad... *ears droop* I see... now that you mention it, I remember hearing that the voice actor of Troy McLure was killed, but I had no idea that was him! How sad...

Phil Hartman (http://us.imdb.com/Name?Hartman,+Phil) on the Internet Movie DataBase. If you click the mini-biography link, it also gives rough details of his death.

sniff. I am sad too. He was a favourite of mine.. he always seemed so good natured. Too bad he didn't get to be a dad full-time.
