Summary
By 1998, Phil Hartman was a household name after a successful run on Saturday Night Live and several movies. He married his third wife, Brynn, in 1987. Brynn had aspirations to be a model and an actress, but her career never took off like Phil's. Few could have believed that the couple's lives would be ended the way that they were.
Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the murder of Phil Hartman. On May 29th, 1998, successful actor and comedian Phil Hartman was killed by his wife, Brynn Omdahl, in a tragic murder-suicide case. They appeared to be a happy couple to outsiders, but those in their inner circle knew they fought often and had tension in their marriage. But what exactly went so wrong for this tragedy to occur?
