    Shari Lewis and Lambchop

    I have to admit, I always had a soft spot for Shari Lewis and Lambchop. I don't know what I was surprised more about that she died of ovarian cancer (had no idea she was sick) and that she was 65.

    My warped sense of humor thought that it was funny as shit when an outraged SHARI told the story on tv once about how
    "some wacky person finds it amusing to send her an assortment of mint jellies every Christmas".

    Wasn't me. Honest.

    I remember I had a dream about her and that she died from some type of cancer.. I woke up the next morning and saw on the news that she had just passed away that day.
    Can't say a bad thing about her. She was a sweet and talented lady.

    One thing I remember about Lewis was that she really hated children's TV, in other words, the then-current state of children's TV. Not only what the then three big networks put out but also many local ones too like Phoenix's Wallace & Lamdo, Denver's Blinky The Clown , Cleveland's Barnaby or Baltimore's Captain Cheaspeake ( And I assume Pittsburgh's Captain Pitt since both were the same guy ). She felt they were junk. Come to think of it I seem to remember Sheri either worked or at least helped out the watchdog group Action for Childrens Television which over the years helped made many of local kids hosts unemployed.

    At the time I read this was back in the early 80s so I don't know what her opinions were on the amount childrens shows on cable like Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network or even the many different PBS networks that are out which were around befor her death.

    The Song Remains the Same

    Oh yes? The Song that Never Ends?.
    Can only imagine how many camp councilors were driven mad on a bus trip by that song!
    I recall? though quite young (of course) that Sherri was really good at not moving her lips?
    A talent in ventriloquism that I have since seen is not very common?
    Paul Winchell was another?

    I had a stuffed lambchop once. It was very tasty. I think it was stuffed with olives.

    It is strange that so many people choose to be stupid.

    I was bummed when Shari died - did anyone see her on that episode of The Nanny? I didn't even realise she was sick! She was so talented and Lamb Chop was a cute little sock!

    In 2000, her daughter, Mallory Lewis resumed her mother's work with the Lamb Chop character.

    She even has her own You Tube page:

    Shari Lewis

    I didn't see a thread started on Shari Lewis so here goes.

    I used to watch her when I was a kid. Loved Lamb Chop
    Charley Horse and Hush Puppy. She was a very talented
    lady and one of my favorite episodes of The Nanny was the
    one that Shari Lewis guest starred in. I hear now her daughter
    has taken over as the voice of the puppets. She died of ovarian
    cancer.

    I edited my post last night but it didn't stick. Shari died of
    uterine cancer on August 2, 1998.

    I remember hearing about her death and just welling up with tears. She was a staple of my childhood and she was simply radiant. Loved her to pieces and felt I'd lost a dear friend when she passed.

    Shari Lewis, aside from being a talented ventriloquist and a lovely woman, also cowrote (with her husband) an episode of the original Star Trek, entitled 'The Lights of Zetar'.
