Links to the past, with relevance today:

EXTRATV: Friends remember Alex Trebek, who died at 80 on Saturday, including some warm words from 90-year-old Ed Asner.
CBS THIS MORNING: Could 85-year-old Sophia Loren be heading toward another Oscar?!

GREG IN HOLLYWOOD: Remembering Minnie Riperton (1947-1979) the week of the anniversary of her birth.

INSTAGRAM: Art Clokey (1921-2010) gave us Gumby (dammit!), but in 1955, two years before, he did this hypnotic short called Gumbasia. It's so satisfying to watch, for some strange reason.

EW: Ken Spears, a co-creator of Scooby Doo, Where Are You? (1969-1970), has died at 82.

PEOPLE: Ivana Trump, 71, is speaking out about her ex-husband Donald Trump's loss of the U.S. presidency, saying the 74-year-old hates to lose. (No kidding!) Who would've thought in the '80s, when Donald and Ivana were the perfect fodder for satirical Spy Magazine, that he would become president one day?! Not me, and I bet not Ivana, who missed her chance to be a first lady by 30 years.
YOUTUBE: In honor of Lou Ferrigno's 69th birthday today, check out the time Liberace (1919-1987) got him out of his shirt and taught him to play piano. Kind of!
