How true is it the Andy Dick got Phil Harman's wife addicted to coke again which would wind up killing Phil? Is it true that on the set of SNL Jon Lovitz tried to beat the shit out Andy Dick? (lemmy.world)

I'll answer this quickly, because I'm sure it'll get deleted. You know, because you posted it in Ask Historians, which doesn't fit.

As I understand it, Jon Lovitz only hit Andy Dick once, and it was at a bar, not on a set. But Dick definitely reintroduced drugs to Phil Hartman's wife, who eventually murdered him.

Why quickly it falls well over 20 years ago.?
