We’re interrupting the “Trashy goes to Paris” series for this breaking announcement. David Carridine, star of the most excellent TV series of the late 1970’s, Kung Fu has died in Bangkok – apparently by his own hand.

But maybe not. The family has asked the FBI to investigate as they say that Grasshopper was happy,bought a new car, etc. Plus (cover your kids’ eyes parents) he hanged himself by his neck and his, uh, genitals. There is talk that he accidentally killed himself while partaking in a dangerous sex game. Um. No. I’m not gonna Google what that might mean.

Be that as it may, I was a big fan. And this is sad to hear.
