what Can I say about Alan Thicke. the death of Alan Thicke while playing ice hockey somehow needed reflection for a crazy blog like this and it got me to wondering a lot about nature and man and why the hell some jackass at 69 years of age felt he needed o show the world he had the agility and stamina of a twenty year old. Alan Thicke made a good living from entertainment for really not being that good and entertaining. I recall he had a horrible late night TV show and some thought he could be a serious contender for David Letterman and Johnny Carson (or leno) for while upon news of his show and until the first week of his late night program called Thicke of the Night. Having to watch Alan Thicke in the eighties ,thanks having parents to cheap to buy cable often , often gave me a thick headache and even at 11 or 12 years of age I wondered how this blow hard big wig mother fucker was even on TV. As people saw how horrible of an interview and unfunny tis creep was the future of Thick of the Night had about s much chance as three blind mice in Owl infested forest. Alan Thicke and his late night talk show looked like a Sunday morning scam preacher program and Alan's show was about as entertaining as one. he also stared in the TV sitcom Growing pains which was another God awful sitcom and helped lay the demise of sitcoms as nothing post nineties was as cool as programs like Hogan's Heroes, Taxi, Dukes of Hazzard, Soap, Gilligan's island etc etc. growing pains gave one pains watching a full episode and the amount of crap this Canadian actor was associated it was deserving of a role in deliverance as a guy who got squealed and Alan Thicke was hardly a legend and none worthy of mention through his death as he was this past week. Alan was also a bad singer and performer and likely he was the son of some important elite Canadian official that wanted to oversea his son to make it big in tinsel town. Alan Thick dead at the age of sixty......something.
