So just before Reeve’s accident in 1995, his film career had taken a bit of a dive and he was doing TV movies to try and pay the bills. Assuming he hadn’t been paralyzed, there’s a good chance he would have been considered as the lead or a major supporting actor in several high-profile TV shows after 2000. Which shows/characters would he have be…

About two months ago I got an alert from Credit Karma that I missed a payment on an account and it’s affecting my score. It wa…

Unfortunately the at fault driver didn’t survive and probably passed before impact.
