CoverStory By Jay Bobbin As always, the end of a calendar year is a time to reflect on familiar enter- tainers who left us during the preceding 12 months. Here's a remembrance of some television staples. Angela Lansbury: After legendary successes on Broadway and the movie screen, this icon made a permanent impact on the TV landscape as "Mur- der, She Wrote's" Jessica Fletcher. Bob Saget: "Full House's" beloved Danny Tanner had another major TV role as the narrator of "How I Met Your Mother." Kirstie Alley: "Cheers" and "Veronica's Closet" were a couple of memora- ble television stops for this distinctively earthy two-time Primetime Emmy winner. James Caan: Following many successful films, this rugged actor came to se- ries TV in "Las Vegas" and "Back in the Game." Ray Liotta: Though prin- cipally a movie actor, Liotta brought his trademark intensity to the police se- ries "Shades of Blue" and earned a Primetime Emmy for an "ER" guest role. Sidney Poitier: This esteemed Oscar winner brought his talent to TV in a number of projects including a sequel to "To Sir, With Love" (directed by Peter Bogdanovich, who died on the same day). Nichelle Nichols: This "Star Trek" essential's portrayal of Lt. Uhura was iconic in multiple ways ... and the series and movies will continue to make it so.
