The Connors is one of the most beloved sitcoms on TV right now. Few shows are able to capture the heart and magic that made so many of these shows unforgettable back in the day.
Now, the cast is honoring a crew member who tragically lost their life on set.
*The Conners* is one of my favorite shows on TV right now.
It has the perfect mixture of heart, humor and family, which made it all the more devastating to learn the show had lost a beloved crew member.
On Thursday, crew member Terrel Richmond died after suffering a “medical event” on the set.
Werner Entertainment, the show’s production company, released the following statement to ET Canada : “With heavy hearts we regret to confirm that a member of our technical crew suffered a fatal medical event today.”
“He was a much-loved member of “The Conners” and “Roseanne” families for over 25 years.”
The statement continued: “As we remember our beloved colleague, we ask that you respect the privacy of his family and loved ones as they begin their grieving process.”
According to TMZ law enforcement said that the crew member worked primarily in lighting, and the accident took place while he was up on the catwalk.
Now, Michael Fishman, who plays DJ, is showing how the cast and crew are remembering Terrel.
“Yesterday, we lost a dear member of our audio crew, Terrel Richmond. Today, we shoot our final episode of @theconnersabc Season 3 in loving memory of a lovely man.”
Our thoughts are with the Richmond family during this difficult time.
