And i think people are going to be upset they found out its closed. It can run for years and years and years. The decision to end the show caught many cast members by surprise and the public too, but th show was only slated for six weeks and then grew into something much larger. Over the years its welcomed thousands of people into the theater here including big names like the queen of england, willie brown.

Its one of those shows that is the only one like it. It makes it sad. The producer told me, i just had a feeling it was time. And she was feeling it for years and she just decided and announce today the class. She thought they would know. Shes like, i thought it would be obvious. And they were shocked. I think first time i was there was in 1997. I think i was wrapping up college of marin before going to colorado. That was the first time id went. You cant even prepare someone for it. Its a crazy weird whacky wild show. But a lot of people i talked to who were part of the cast, they said i wasnt planning on staying very long. Then 30 years later, theyre still a part of the cast. This will be very sad for a lot of them. Weve talked about all the famous people who have been a part this show. Check out this guy. See if you can recognize his face. Im told by our producer, steve duncan, he is watching right now. Frank somerville. Never looked better. Look at that. [ laughter ] he was a guest performer. His family was in the audience.

Flu cases are on the rise. In the bay area this year alone, about 200 flu patients treated by sutter cpmc van ness in San Francisco are children. Right now were in the middle of the peak of the flu season. This morning were joined by pediatric physician vincent tamares to discuss why these numbers are high and how to protect our children because its getting worse. Were talking about the flu season. It officially starts . October 29th. October is when people come in. I feel like there was a delay where people were waiting. When do you suggest patients really get in there and get the flu shot for maximum protection . You can get the flu shot any time during the season. Dont wait. The best time is early fall. But you can get it any time. If youre in february, youve had the flu, you can still do it. You can still get the flu shot. Why are we seeing this increase in cases . Its starting earlier and lasting longer. The flu, every year theres a different type of formulation. It depends on what happened the year before. Do we think the flu shot this year has missed the mark . This year its looking pretty good. Its lower members but havent hit peak. We always have to wait till we hit peak. You see a lot of the children coming in. We worry about the kids. When they have high fevers, no one wants to take any chances. When it happens to them, they might stay home and not go in and not get the help and the doctors help they need. Exactly. So with children, the idea with children getting the shot is children will not get as sick. Adults wont get as sick either. It allows for a shorter time if you do get the flu. Even if you do get the flu, it will be a shorter course and less severe. So what do you say because you have all those people i know i can pick them out. Im not pointing any fingers. People who are like, i never get the flu shot. There are some people who legitimately have reactions to it so they try to avoid it i think, but most people are like, it doesnt work. Its hard to tell if youd be 50 double the amount of sickinize if you didnt get it. Who do you tell people who are doubters . What youre relying on are other people. But you can protect your own family and you can protect people who are high risk. Over 65. Under 5 years old. The children under 5 are highest risk. The children under six months are even the highest. They represent a lot of mortality. Theyre covered most parts by insurance. Really its about getting in there. You did mention one other thing about people coming from International Travelers. You can see different the wie other side of the equator, theyre flipped. We have a lot of International Travelers from asia. Well see flu from asia that may be earlier than were used to seeing ourselves. Your best tips . Obviously washing your hands, getting the flu shot. Washing your hands is one of the best things you can possibly do. Its so simple but its so effective. Getting the flu shot obviously is the most important thing. There are four formulations. You can do the mist. You can do the shot. Your doctor will tell you whats best for you. Just get it. Thanks so much. We hope we all have a healthy season. Nothing is worse than getting the flu. Getting the shot may save us all. Thank you so much. Well send it back to you. Coming up on mornings on 2 the nine, a vehicle plunges into the ocean off the San Mateo County coast.
