Murphy brown cast death

CBS' revival of the beloved sitcom Murphy Brown has added a new cast member, certain to touch fans' hearts. Fans of the original will recall Phil, the owner of the bar aptly named Phil's, which the series' cast of characters would regularly visit.

The role was played by actor Pat Corley, who passed away in 2006. When the revival premieres, Murphy Brown will honor his character by introducing his sister, Phyllis, who is also barkeep. Cagney & Lacey actress Tyne Daly will play the role.

The Hollywood Reporter shared the news of Tyne Daly's casting.
