Nell No More - Nell Carter, star of Gimme a Break!, the sitcom vehicle that launched Rosie O'Donnell and Joey Lawrence's careers, died today. The reason I found this blog-worthy was the use of a couple euphemistic adjectives in the lede: "Nell Carter, who played the sassy, matronly housekeeper..." Is it just me or does sassy = black and matronly = fat? Just checking.
