Woah..
"Phil Hartman died on May 28, 1998 in his Encino, California home. He was shot by his wife, Brynn, who then turned the gun on herself later that morning. The reasons for the murder-suicide are unknown, although friends of the Hartmans speculated in the press that the combination of their marriage problems and Brynn's drug addictions probably contributed.
Hartman's death caused considerable mourning in Hollywood. NewsRadio produced a special episode where the cast sincerely and tearfully mourned the death of Hartman's on-screen counterpart. After his death, Lovitz joined the show. Out of respect, The Simpsons retired his characters, rather than finding another voice actor. He was getting ready to do the voice of several characters on Matt Groening's Futurama. After he died, his name was given to the lead character; Philip J. Fry."
