Blind Item #7 - Kindness
All the answers this week to the blind items are people who have never previously been an answer to a blind in the past decade.
This foreign born actor is probably B+ list. For those of a certain age you know him from this amazing sketch show and another that was going through an awful time period. If you are of a younger age, you know him from this hit network show. Anyway, he raised a bunch of money last year and chartered a plane from his home country and flew a bunch of underprivileged children and their parents down to Disneyland for a weekend. Disney did put up the money for the tickets, but our actor raised and spent his own money or flights, food and hotel rooms.
Dave Foley

ReplyDeleteDave Thomas-was on SCTV and a SNL spin-off called "The New Show" produced by Lorne Michael at the same time..
ReplyDeleteOr he could be known now to younger gen for Dr.Ken(hit network show he's currently on)
ReplyDeleteThat's very sweet. ♥
ReplyDeleteFoley is a good guess..going back further, Dave Thomas (sctv, sitcoms)
ReplyDeleteI can't find anything about him sending kids to Disney World, but he does fit. The awful time being when Phil Hartman died.
ReplyDeleteDave Foley - Kids in the Hall for the way-back comedy sketch show, NewsRadio for the sitcom and for the young-uns, voice-over for Monsters University and A Bug's Life.
ReplyDeleteAgree mark mckinney. Kids in the Hall was the great sketch and he did a brief stint on SNL when it was struggling. Now on Superstore
ReplyDeleteDave Foley - great guy but probably can't afford it with his alimony payments
