Gary Collins Is Still A Mess

Mary Ann Mobley, come get your husband already! Gary Collins was the host of my favorite late 1980s TV experience The Home Show, so it pains in the heart to read about how he still hasn't gotten his shit together. In the past 8 years, Gary has been busted 3 times for DUI and now he's adding a fourth mug shot to his collection. But this time, Gary wasn't arrested for letting Jack Daniels be his co-pilot. TMZ says that Gary was put into handcuffs after he walked out on a $59.35 restaurant bill without laying down his Diner's Club. Gary did this shit in Mississippi, where it's a felony to not pay a $25 or more bill.

Gary had himself a meal of steak and cocktails at Jazzeppi's in Biloxi last night. When the bill showed up, Gary simply sashayed out of the restaurant and ignored the screams from the staff to pay his shit. They called the cops, Gary was arrested and now he's sitting in a cell on $5,000 bail.

Gary used to be THE BIGGEST FUCKING STAR IN THE HISTORY OF TELEVISION (served on a plate made from exaggeration) and now he's in jail for spitting on a $60 restaurant bill? How the mighty have...etc..etc... If Gary didn't have the cash, he should've called up his wife! Mary Ann could've pawned off one of her wigs or something.

Welcome to rock bottom, Gary. Hopefully, Mary Ann Mobley does the right thing and makes a rescue ladder out of her wigs and old rhinestone gowns so she can get her husband out of there.

Like most people, he could hold his shit together when working.

After retirement, can't handle unstructured life, he spirals downhill.

My hometown... Gary's mess belongs here with everyone else's. Laying down the welcome mat.

It's clear that all Gary's problems stem from having to look at Mary Ann's butchered face. That would drive anyone to drink.

He was in my Alcohol Awareness class in Culver City. Very nice guy, sorry to see him get himself into more trouble.

I'm still laughing about Jazzeppi's in Biloxi. A jazz club and Italian restaurant? Excellent!

Maybe formerly homeless Ted can help Gary clean up his act.

How the mighty have fallen. I remember when Gary Collins owned daytime television.

Hey I remember that guy...geez, had no idea he was in such a mess. He used to be so clean-cut. Now he looks like the guys you see hanging around the Sally-Ann during the day, waiting for them to open up so they can get a bed. Sad.

If you were married to the harpy known as Mary Ann Mobley, you'd drink, too! His career was sunk years ago, too. He's just a fucking mess who needs to see Dr. Drew.

Another vote for dementia. Caused by a lifetime of alcohol abuse.

Speaking of which... Thanks to you bishes, I watched the "Intervention" with Erin last night. Unfortunately, I don't think she's going to make it. At the very end, when she was saying "I'm clean and sober and my whole life is for my husband and daughter, etc." it just sounded like someone was forcing her to read those words off a cue card with a gun to her head

Honestly, she looked high to me. She looked like she was lying. She just found some new high functioning (for now) drug to work with.

Jacks,

When I saw the new news last night about Brazil being confounded w/ dying birds, I knew shit's getting real. Time to party like it's 13.0.0.0 (aka 2012). Who's the one been saying my dad was asked some months ago to crunch numbers from the gov on "weird things; worst case scenario things". Y'all remember that?

This is big folks, for serious. Not to scare yall, but if our wildlife and ecosystem go, WE ALL GO.

Been nice knowing you snarks.

*still hungover from last night's massive drinking; promised to quit, but it seems it's a bad time to quit*

She needs to get away from Jim and start over without him! (Not that I think he was totally in the wrong.) They are not good for each other and I didn't see any love between them at all.

But back to topic, Gary makes me sad. Old addicts are the saddest kind.

So basically - you can take your kids to McDonald's in this place, not pay the bill and be put away for a felony. But not for feeding your kids at McDonald's. Nice.
