(AP) — Fred Berry, the
squeaky-voiced actor famous
for playing red-beret-wearing
Rerun on the 1970s TV sitcom
"What’s Happening!", has died
at age 52.
Berry died Oct. 21 at his
home in Los Angeles appar
ently of natural causes. Friends
said Berry had been ill because
of a recent stroke.
He wore his red beret and
suspenders in real life, and it
was unclear whether he origi
nally brought his own style to
the ch a rac te r o f R erun or
whether he was forever mim
icking the goofball character
that made him famous.
“What's Happening!”, which
ran from 1976-1979, focused
on three teenage friends - Re
run, Raj and Dwayne - who
i
The name Rerun, according
to B erry, re ferred to the
character’s brainlessness: In
the summer, he had to rerun all
the classes he failed during the
school year.
Among the more famous epi
sodes was one in which Rerun
joined a bizarre cult and an
other in which he was busted
for making bootlegged tapes of
a Doobie Brothers concert.
Berry's success on the show
was clouded by his heavy use
o f m ariju an a and cocaine.
“There were dealers right there
in the stu d io , people that
worked there," he said in 1996.
By the time “W hat's Hap

trouble while growing up in dollars on drugs, cars, homes
