RIP Alan Thicke

[Freypower]

So I'm guessing Growing Pains was never played outside of the US.

I have heard of it. I never watched it.

For context, I want to say that my comment was moved from another thread.
Shun said something along the lines that Glenn wasn't as well known as ... and gave a list that included Alan Thicke. I had never heard of him or any of his shows.

Like FP, I haven't heard of many of people who have RIP threads here.

I can see how the loss of context makes it a bit awkward... sorry for any confusion caused by my reorganization.

No problem. I just wanted to clarify.

Had no idea (why would I though...) that Barry Gibb was a very close friend to Alan Thicke. Barry posted a message on his Facebook page:

This is devastating. Alan was a lifelong friend and losing him now is an enormous shock. In the deepest sense, Alan was my brother. My family and I send our condolences to his family. I will dwell on his humor and outlook on life forever. I will miss you my dear friend.
- Barry

I saw online that Don Felder's girlfriend, Kathrin was also friends with Alan. She was at Alan's memorial service.
