I thought the Robert Blake joke was really bad. Blake was a deeply troubled man who did very bad things, most notably, of course, (very probably) killing his wife (he was acquitted). But not only is it taking a cheap shot at a dead man, it belittles and trivializes the murder of his wife. De mortuis nihil nisi bonum. If the Rock can break out the Latin, so can this Latin teacher. I agree about leaving out Sorvino (really?!?) and Heche. I think Sizemore and Dillon both died in 2023, so maybe next year.

The montage doesn’t cover people who passed within a calendar year, it deals with those that had passed since the previous year’s ceremony, so if they were going to acknowledge Sizemore - and talk about a deeply troubled man - it would have been this time.
