RIP Dr. Johnny Fever
-
Howard Hesseman, the actor best known for his memorable role as DJ Doctor Johnny Fever on the TV sitcom WRKP in Cincinnati, died yesterday (January 29, 2022), at age 81, at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, Calif. of complications from colon surgery that he had last summer.
Hesseman’s long career in Hollywood also spanned dozens of films (including Police Academy 2: The First Assignment and This Is Spinal Tap). Although his WRKP role spanned the series’ entire four-year run from 1978-1982, he enjoyed an even lengthier run on Head of the Class as schoolteacher Charlie Moore.
