Hollywood bids farewell to cherished stars who left their mark on the industry.

Mull’s personal life was marked by his marriages to Sandra Baker (1978-1981) and Kristin Johnson (1972-1978) before finding lasting love with Wendy Haas in 1982. Their union spanned 41 years, a testament to their enduring devotion.

Maggie, following in her father’s creative footsteps, produced popular shows such as Family Guy, Maggie, Life in Pieces, and Not Dead Yet, in which her father also starred. It is clear that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree when it comes to talent.

Tributes poured in from colleagues and friends, including Melissa Joan Hart, who fondly remembered her time working with Mull on Sabrina the Teenage Witch. She shared a touching post on Instagram, expressing her admiration for his extensive body of work and the valuable lessons he imparted. Hart’s words beautifully capture the impact Mull had on those around him, both personally and professionally.
