When was the last time Regis made his appearance on Rachael Ray? Seemed to appear a couple times a year. May have been this season before COVID interrupted the world.
 
This was already scheduled, but Jeopardy is running replays of celebrity tournament games and they started with the first game with Regis and included a tribute at the beginning. Between him and Carol Burnett it was pretty funny.
 
I don't know whether it was planned. My TV listings showed an episode of "SNL" with Queen Latifah hosting but by the time I saw this the episode was already recording. It was the correct episode and Latifah was an "American Idol" contestant who was a guest on "Live with Regis and Kelly". Darrell Hammond was Regis and Amy Poehler was an excessively perky Kelly who was mother to eight babies. Regis said Latifah would be the next Sarah Vaughn and Kelly said she didn't know who that was (I do).
 
I've been watching "Simpsons" episodes because I saved them until later.

Even if I already have an episode recorded, I just record the rerun.

And last week after the credits Regis and one of his co-hosts were shown in the kitchen and Bart's head appeared to be sticking out of a pot, and the episode was dedicated to him. As far as I know, he had no connection with the episode.
 
Someone posted here that ABC did an hour-long special on his life. I've searched but i can't seem to find it. Is it online anywhere?
