RIP: Matthew Perry
We had Friends on repeat for white noise when we brought our first kid home.

Law enforcement sources tell us the actor was found Saturday at an L.A.-area home ... where we're told he appears to have drowned. Our sources say first-responders rushed over on a call for cardiac arrest. It's unclear where exactly on the grounds this happened.

Our sources say he was found in a jacuzzi at the home ... and we're told there were no drugs found at the scene. We're also told there is no foul play involved.

Yes, he was a vaccine cheerleader. Yes, he had a drug problem. We'll have to wait and see.

^^^ could be a combination of both. Weak heart… and then stress.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Whatever else he was, he was a comedic genius.

Very… Disappointed and saddened to read this.

A long time ago, Friends was a big part of my life.
The six of them were all so friendly with each other, I’m sure it’s very difficult on the remaining cast.

This is sad news. I really enjoyed him in the show.

All the reports say "no drugs were found at the scene", and there was no evidence of foul play. I guess we'll find out in a few days what happened.

I don't recall seeing him in anything else, but we binge watched Friends a few years ago on Prime, and liked it at first. After a few seasons though, it got kind of old watching 30-something year olds who never grew up. Same with Big Bang Theory.

My assumption is that we will hear something like “cardiac arrest”; since death ends with the heart stopping, it is technically accurate. If it was “vaccine” related, we’ll never hear it. If drug related, we have a slight chance to learn it, but unlikely.

Only fifty-four years old. Sad to hear Frown RIP, Mr. Perry, and thanks for the laughs.

My wife and I binge-watched Friends a couple years back and truly enjoyed it. We'll probably do it again, someday.

The Whole Nine Yards is a great flick and would be a good way to remember him.

He's an actor. I can't say I really care. The way news outlets are pounding this, you would think that it's something really important for society. Here's the real news flash about it: It's not.

I don't believe I ever saw anything he was in. I read that he had pissed away about 9,000,000 on drugs, booze and rehab over his lifetime. Impressive resume if true.

He also didnt do himself any favors by recenly thrashing Keanu Reeves in his book. As you can imagine, people were not thrilled about that. I believe he apologized for what he said.

Young dude, too bad.
