Sometimes I stop and remind myself how lucky we were to live at the same time as Betty White.

Steve Lawrence (born Sidney Liebowitz; July 8, 1935 – March 7, 2024) Singer, comedian and actor, best known as a member of a duo with his wife Eydie Gormé, billed as "Steve and Eydie", and for his performance as Maury Sline, the manager and friend of the main characters in The Blues Brothers. Steve and Eydie first appeared together as regulars on Tonight Starring Steve Allen in 1954 and continued performing as a duo until Gormé's retirement in 2009
When he was 18 years old, Lawrence was hired by Steve Allen to be one of the singers on Allen's local New York City late night show on WNBC-TV in 1953, along with Eydie Gormé and Andy Williams. When the show got picked up by NBC to be seen on the national network, becoming The Tonight Show, Lawrence, Gormé and Williams stayed on until the program's end in 1957.
Primarily a singer Lawrence was also an actor, appearing in guest roles on television shows in every decade since the 1950s. After getting his start with Steve Allen's late night show, he was seen in programs such as The Danny Kaye Show; The Judy Garland Show; The Julie Andrews Hour; Night Gallery; The Flip Wilson Show; Police Story; Murder, She Wrote; and CSI.
Lawrence and Gormé starred in the 1958 summer replacement series on NBC, The Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gormé Show. Lawrence made many appearances on The Carol Burnett Show (1967–78), with and without Eydie. The Steve Lawrence Show, with supporting actor Charles Nelson Reilly, ran for 13 weeks in 1965, a variety show that was one of the last CBS television shows to only air in black and white. Lawrence also served as a panelist on What's My Line? (1950–67).
Lawrence played Mark McCormick's father, Sonny Daye, in two episodes of Hardcastle and McCormick. He appeared on The Nanny several times - first as himself in season 2, episode 14, and then as the much-talked about, but never really seen, Morty Fine, father of Fran Fine in a few of the final episodes of the show. In 2011, he portrayed Jack, a wealthy love interest of Betty White's character, Elka Ostrovsky, on Hot in Cleveland. In 2014, he guest-starred in an episode of Two and a Half Men on CBS, and sang the theme song to the parody miniseries The Spoils of Babylon. (Wikipedia)

Emotional Post Incoming
On this day, we remember actress/comedian/animal advocate/and humanitarian Betty Marion White on what would have been her 101st birthday.
Betty has been known for her sweet and innocent charm in roles such as Rose Nyland in Golden Girls as well as Mrs. Delores Bickerman in Lake Placid, but that's not to forget her fiery spirit in sitcom Hot In Cleveland as Elka Ostrovsky.
Besides her comedy work, Betty was known for her love of animals and people. She was an advocate for animal welfare, racial equality, and LGBTQ+ rights. Her sweet innocent charm won the hearts over of millions across the nation and globe. She may have not had a single mean bone in her body, but she was a firm believer in what she felt was right.
I remember growing up, I would watch The Golden Girls everyday after school and would belly laugh until I cried. She was such a true gem and brought smiles to both myself and everyone that watched her on the TV and movie screens. Her soul was pure as ever and will be remembered for eons to come.
Happy 101st Birthday, Betty. May your light shine brighter today 💙

It's January 17th. On this day in 1922, one hundred years ago, Ms. Betty Marion White was born in Oak Park, Illinois. She didn’t stay there long, though. When only one year old, she moved with her family to southern California.
Inspired by her family's vacations in the 🏔️ Sierra Nevada mountains, White's earliest career aspiration was to become a forest ranger. Women weren't allowed to serve as forest rangers in the 1930s, though, so she turned her attention to writing. She wrote and played the lead role in her elementary school graduation play and got bitten by the acting bug. A month after she graduated from Beverly Hills High School in 1939, she sang some songs on an experimental 📺 TV show, and the rest is history. She spent almost her entire adult life performing in front of a 🎥 camera.
When "The Betty White Show" went national in 1954, White was criticized by Southerners for featuring Arthur Duncan, an African-American tap dancer. Her sponsors caved in and ordered White to fire Duncan. White refused, and the sponsors canceled her show. Throughout her lifetime, White continued to be a tireless advocate for civil rights, human rights, women's rights, LGBTQ rights, animal rights, and other important causes that became close to her heart.
Needless to say, White's career survived the cancelation. She went on to perform roles as a comedian, dramatic actress, game show panelist and host, and variety show host. Her most popular roles were on the sitcoms "The Mary Tyler Moore Show (1973-1977)," "The Golden Girls (1985-1992)," and "Hot in Cleveland (2010-2015)."
White earned numerous 🏆 awards throughout her career – Emmy, Grammy, American Comedy, and Screen Actor Guild awards, just to name a few. In 1995, she was inducted into the Television Hall of Fame and was honored with a ⭐ star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. That star is now covered in 💐 flowers, placed there by adoring fans mourning her death 18 days ago on New Year's Eve (the result of a stroke suffered six days earlier on Christmas Day). ☮️ R.I.P., Betty… Jamiese of Pixoplanet

WELCOME TO MY SUPER AWESOME 100 CHARACTER BATTLE!!
this bracket has 100 of my favorite characters in it (i have plenty more i just couldn’t fit them :’))
how the format works:
- the first rounds will consist of four characters up against each other, the two that have the most votes move on to the next round
- in the second rounds, the next four will go head to head (the two that win from one team and the two that won from the other) and one character will advance
- the next round will have the next two battle (the one that won from one team and the one that won from the other team) and one will advance
- the round after that will be the same as the last one except this one will decide the winner of that division, who will win?? who knows!
each poll will last for around one week, so you have plenty of time to vote for your favorite characters!
(i think it would also be funny if i gave trophies to the character with the least amount of votes overall and the character with the most votes overall)
