Jason Sudeikis' uncle earned Emmy nominations six years running after getting started on Second City in his hometown of Chicago.

The entertainment industry lost one of its most beloved actors when Cheers star George Wendt — "NORM!" — passed away at age 76 earlier this week. Sadly, the fan-favorite character actor was actually the second Cheers star to die this month.

Late Cheers alum George Wendt is remembered for his comical performance as Norman Peterson and his death, naturally, broke fans’ hearts in May 2025. While a cause of death was not immediately disclosed, Wendt experienced a few health setbacks in his final years. He chose to keep his personal life private, though.
