One last unfortunate update, folks, Gary Coleman died today after being taken off life support, according to RadarOnline:
Coleman had been hospitalized in Provo, Utah since Wednesday, May 26, after suffering what his family called “a serious medical problem.”
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Coleman had slipped into a coma and was on life support after suffering an intracranial hemorrhage, according to ABC News.
You really can’t say anything bad about Gary Coleman considering he was doomed the minute he stepped foot on the set of Diff’rent Strokes. Everything that transpired afterward was out of his hands, and I for one don’t begrudge the man a few random head-buttings while trying to navigate through a world that must’ve seemed built for only giants.
Rest in Peace, Gary. May you find what Willis was talkin’ ’bout on the other side.
Que dang.
whatchu talkin bout superficial?
Sad. RIP.
No jokes to be made here. RIP Gary.
So long Gary, you did have it ROUGH! RIP
Hope you find some peace at last, little man.
Fella has a tough life. RIP Arnold.

Rest in Peace, Gary. May you find what Willis was talkin’ ’bout on the other side
SO cute, Fish…
@8 you’re a cunt
RIP Gary. It really does take different strokes to rule the world.
RIP. Nice to see ‘fish finally note someone’s death with dignity, well said.
RIP. The dude did seemingly have a very rough life.
Gary RIP.
Rest in Peace, Gary. May you find what Willis was talkin’ ’bout on the other side.
Haha nice, Fish.
Rip Gary Coleman.
Wow Fish – one of the best tributes you have made yet. Made my eyes mist a little. Thanks
the little dude never had a real chance for happiness. Adored child star to running joke. Pretty sad . RIP Gary
May you finally rest in peace, Gary*
Omg Gary! I’m gonna cry:-( He was THE celebrity when I was in 4th grade. Always loved him. Superfish is so right…the poor thing was doomed.
Wow….another 80s icon dead. RIP

Although I rarely watched “Different Strokes” I always thought he was a cool dude. After hearing about his physical state and what his parents did to him I thought, wow, this guy was really rooked, especially by his parents.
I’ve always wonder why Hollywood seemed to turn its collective back on him as I always thought he had the possibilities to have further success in that cesspool.
Why did not original visionaries like a Quentin Tarantino, Farrelly Brothers, or a Tim Burton get this guy on board one of their interesting projects. Gary would have been great as a villain in a Batman movie. Any of these guys and a few others would have known what to do with Gary. And they could have helped him revitialize his career.
I’m sorry to see him go. But now, maybe, he can find the peace he never had living.

On a side note, Fish, And I know it won’t mean anything to you. But if that fucking pop-up promo for Mr. Demi Moore and that Heigle bitch comes up again on every single click of the mouse I’m gonna bail for a while.
I suspect I won’t be the only one.
One thing for it to come up on the main page…ONCE!…. But to keep coming up every time we click back and forth from one page to another, well, my man, you’re sorely testing the patience of your loyal readership.
Careful, man. You could go too far with that bullshit.

How is my junkie daughter STILL alive??? Hello grim reaper…want some STD’s, Coke, and a BJ?????
man….the hazards of Midget tossing……sure it seems fun when you start but there is always a down side….
@16 I agree. Nice one ‘fish.
Thanks for not saying something jerky about him Fish. No human should have their life peak at the age of 9 – it’s just too much for anyone to take.
RIP Gary.
What a shame his life was cut… so short.
I wholeheartedly agree. RIP Gary. Well done, fish, well done.
one less little bastard in the world who goes around biting people. He never did grow up. Yes , pun intended!!
Scott, It’s better to peak at 9 then to never peak at all.
RIP Gary
Why be so rude when someone dies. That is awful. I hate it.
Gary Coleman thank you for the laughter. Won’t be forgotten.
R.I.P. Mr. Coleman
Whatchu rottin’ bout, Willis?
Now he can do afterlife midget porn with Dana Plato.
Man this has been a pretty rough month. RIP Gary, you will forever be remembered. And nice little farewell note, Fish. Appreciate it.
“Coleman had slipped into a coma and was on life support after suffering an intracranial hemorrhage”
…so was it the same thing as Bret Michaels’ hemorrhage, or was it a diff’rent stroke?
yo dick look like gary coleman
A perfect example of a life haunted by the relentless cruelty of hollywood and tabloid culture. May he finally get the peaceful rest he needs.
Makes me sad – the guy never got a break.
Sure, he stepped over the line some times … but so would you if people were always asking you to say the same line over and over.
#36 I just snorted after reading your comment. Not pretty on my part, haha. But very funny comment. Man, it’s not looking too good to be an icon from the 80′s let me tell you! RIP GC!
Oh and yea, enough with the Kutch pop up add. Geez dude. We get it, he’s got a good publicist.
All together now:
Well the world don’t move to the bear of just one drum
What might be right for you, may not be right for some
A man is born, he’s a man of means
Then along come two, they got nothin’ but the dreams
It takes, Diff’rent Strokes it takes, Diff’rent Strokes it takes, Diff’rent strokes to rule the world.
Eveybody’s got a special kind of story
Everybody finds a way to shine
It don’t matter that you got, not a lot, so what?
They’ll have theirs, you’ll have yours and I’ll have mine
But together we’ll be fine
“Cause it takes Diff’rent Strokes, it takes, Diff’rent Strokes, it takes, Diff’rent Strokes to rule the world!
OOOOOOOH!
RIP Gary.
Please put Audrina’s breasts or Kelly Brook back as the top entry. I don’t want to have to look at Gary’s hideous dwarf face all throughout the extended holiday weekend.
LOL @ 42 (TRUE!!), and very nicely put, Fish. RIP, Gary.
That was actually a nice post. RIP, Gary.
I heard he died from a combination of several different strokes…
…and watchoo talkin’ bout everyone!
RichPort I see you have been reading Geekologie! All jokes aside, it’s unfortunate his life was short lived….GET IT? Sorry. All jokes aside, for real, RIP Gary. Go pick on He PingPing while you’re down there.
…and when I say Geekologie, I of course mean IWatchStuff.com
R.I.P. little man.
May you pee in many horses butt’s on the other side.

After thinking about it for a while, thinking about how he and his wife had such a turbulent, even violent, realationship; and given how so far the details of how he “fell” are nil and shrouded in secrecy, I’m wondering if we’re going to be hearing more about this as a normal investigation progresses.
His wife is a normal sized woman who could easily have, either in a defensive or aggressive mode, likely do some real harm to Gary if she so chose.
Like so many others from the moment I heard he was admitted into ICU I had a bad feeling about his chances of survival. I’ve also got a bad feeling his wife has much to do with Gary dying.
Well, we’ll see if anything comes of this beyond today.
