Strap into your Laz-Y-Boys




Ken Ober- for those that lived on MTV in the late 80's- he was the host of "Remote Control". This was a great game show for our generation.

It combined pop culture knowledge with fun and whimsy not really seen since.

He unexpectedly passed away yesterday- he was only 52

Adam Sandler- Colin Quinn and Dennis Leary should pay their respects to his family

They all "got their start" on that show- who knows- we may not know who any of them are without it!

Take a trip down memory lane here-
