News about Garry Shandling

The BBC comedy legend (pictured left) was best known for his self-titled show, which ran from 1979 to 1984. The Anglody Channel, a Los Angeles-based production company that worked closely with him, reported his death today. Just over a year ago, the comedian (bottom inset) suffered two strokes, and his ex-wife Caroline Alexander (top inset with Kelly) launched a GoFundMe campaign to raise funds for his recovery and speech therapy. According to reports, he spent two months at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. The Anglophile Channel expressed regret today in a tweet: "It is with great sadness that The Anglophile Channel has announced the death of Kelly Monteith, our beloved companion and colleague, and award-winning comedian/host, has died," the channel said in a tweet.'
