The Sun appears to be unsure as to what Sherman’s last name was. I’m pretty sure he wasn’t related to Leona Helmsley.

11 seasons?

The show essentially had one joke. How the heck did it run for 11 years (especially in an era when prime-time shows rarely made it past 5 years).

[Red Badger]

Thanks for the memories, Sherman. We will miss you................

I loved this guy.

Godspeed, Mister Hemsley.

No one remembers him for Amen.

Just remember, his character “didn’t build that.” Mr. Jefferson’s hard work and risk-taking only played a tiny role in building his dry-cleaning business and in “Movin’ On Up.” Mostly it was the roads and other things that “society” paid for.

He’s moved on up to that dee-luxe apartment in the sky...

RIP.
