GOODBYE, ED GALE

You were a behind-the-scenes legend, helping to enact the likes of Chucky (in Child's Play, Child's Play 2 and Bride of Chucky) and the ill-fated, cinematic Howard the Duck. 

You also brought to life the titular Dolly Dearest, Tasha the Dinosaur on the Land of the Lost, television revival, Uncle Bobby in Tiptoes, Little Eddie in a popular episode of My Name is Earle and the creepy Oscar the Dummy in Friday the 13th: the Series' "Read My Lips."  

In addition, you contributed to Lifepod, Phantasm II, The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle 2000, The Polar Express, The Jungle Book 1994, Spaceballs, Chopper Chicks in Zombietown, The Munsters' Scary Little Christmas, Santa Preys X-mas, The Christmas Secret, Call Me Claus, Santa Jr., The Dreamer of Oz, O Brother Where Art Thou?, The Gold and the Beautiful, L.A. Dicks, Marksman, Emerald Acres, Speed-Dating, The Amateur Monster Movie, Deadly Attraction, Pandemonic, 365 Days, Mikeyboy, Crazy Town and the documentary, In Search of Tomorrow.

Further television appearances can be found in 3rd Rock from the Sun, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Bones, Just Shoot Me!, Baywatch, Townies, The Norm Show, Pig Sty, Family Matters, Grounded for Life, First Monday, The District, The Hughleys and Weird Science. 

Alas, you had your share of unsettling (unforgivable) charges aimed against you (to which you've admitted absolute blame), but despite this, Mr. Gale, many may still appreciate your contributions, and with hope, it will be that, and not your horrid history, that shall prevail among those who crossed your unscrupulous path. 😞
