While I was waiting in the hospital, I watched an episode of the gypsy wedding show. English version.

James Avery, 'Fresh Prince' Actor, Dies at 68
By PETER KEEPNEWS

James Avery, who played Will Smith's pompous but well-meaning uncle on the popular 1990s sitcom "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air," died on Tuesday in Glendale, Calif. He was 68.

The cause was complications of heart surgery, said his mother, Florence J. Avery.

Mr. Avery played Philip Banks, a wealthy lawyer (later a judge) who becomes a surrogate father to his street-smart nephew, played by Mr. Smith, on "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air," seen on NBC from 1990 to 1996.

Reviewing the show in The New York Times early in its first season, John J. O'Connor said Mr. Smith — at the time a popular rapper just beginning his acting career — was "frequently overshadowed by the rest of the cast, particularly James Avery as the father and Karyn Parsons as the older daughter, Hilary."

A classically trained actor with an imposing physical presence and a resonant voice, Mr. Avery was born on Nov. 27, 1945, in Pughsville, Va., near what is now Suffolk, and grew up in Atlantic City. In the late 1960s, he served in the Navy.

In addition to "The Fresh Prince," his numerous television credits include "L.A. Law," "The Closer" and "That '70s Show." Among the movies in which he appeared were "Fletch" and "8 Million Ways to Die."

He was a busy voice artist in animated films and television shows as well. He was the voice of Shredder, the title characters' nemesis, on the 1987-96 cartoon series "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles."

In addition to his mother, Mr. Avery's survivors include his wife, Barbara.

'Fresh Prince of Bel Air' producer Jeff Pollack found dead on California beach

Jeffrey Ian Pollack, who directed "Booty Call" and was a producer on "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air," was found dead Monday on a running trail in Hermosa Beach, Calif. He was 54.

The Hermosa Beach Easy Reader said Pollack was already deceased when a woman reported finding his body on the area known as the Greenbelt. He was said to be an avid runner.

For several years, Pollack partnered with Benny Medina, the manager on whose life "Fresh Prince" was based. The two formed Handprint Entertainment, a management company with clients including Mariah Carey, Jennifer Lopez and Tyra Banks. He also had producing credits on shows including "The Tyra Banks Show" and "The Fighting Temptations."

Usually credited as Jeff Pollack, he directed and co-wrote the 1994 basketball drama "Above the Rim," starring Duane Martin and Tupac Shakur; the 1997 comedy "Booty Call," with Jamie Foxx and Vivica Fox; as well as 1999 comedy "Lost and Found," with David Spade.

More recently, Pollack had been working with Jeff Beacher, who produced the Beacher's Madhouse variety shows at the Roosevelt Hotel and the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Miley Cyrus is set to host the Las Vegas version that opens Friday.
