Brynn and Phil Hartman

Phil Hartman, beloved comedian and actor, known for his roles on Saturday Night Live, The Simpsons, and films like Jingle All the Way, had a career full of laughter, creativity, and success. But behind the scenes, his personal life was far more complicated and troubled. His wife, Brynn Hartman, was a woman struggling with addiction, emotional turmoil, and a deeply troubled relationship.

In the early morning hours of May 28th, 1998, their lives would come to a devastating and violent end, leaving the world stunned and questioning how it all unraveled. In this episode, we’ll explore the rise of Phil Hartman, the dark secrets of his marriage to Brynn, and the tragic events that led to one of the most senseless and devastating deaths in Hollywood history.

A serial killer went on The Dating Game! Rodney Alcala. And Anna Kendrick just directed and starred in a great movie that slightly fictionalizes the story but tells it in a super compelling way “Woman of the Hour” on Netflix.

Thank you, Janet! ♥️ I’m so glad you enjoyed the episode. I loved that we were able to celebrate Phil and pay tribute to him and SNL.

Fantastic job on one of the saddest cases ever. I’m an SNL from the very first season - I was 15! - and a HUGE fan of Phil. Thank you for this!

Janet
