Oh, Good Day New York. If it's not wondering about soy byproducts, it's something else to cause awkward moments. This morning, co-anchor Greg Kelly (son of the Police Commissioner) tried to chat with Colin Quinn about the old days of the MTV game show, Remote Control. Unfortunately, Kelly went too far and asked how Ken Ober is doing—not realizing, perhaps, that Ober died last year. Gawker has video of Quinn informing Kelly that Ken Ober is dead. Further, Quinn says Ober died "like three months ago" but Ober died last November. Anyway, Kelly actually did a face palm. (Also, but not as sad, no one remembers Kari Wuhrer's last name.) more ›

Yesterday afternoon it was reported that Ken Ober, best known as the host of MTV's Remote Control, died on Sunday at the age of 52. The cause of death hasn't been announced, but his agent has come out with some details, saying: "His body was discovered in his home. The last person to have spoken to him was on Saturday morning. No foul play is suspected, no suicide, it looks like natural causes, just no one knows the exact cause yet." more ›
