The "Weird: The Al Yankovic Story" Cast Look So Much Like the Real People

Mary Yankovic, "Weird Al"'s mother, was a quiet but loving figure to her only child. In a piece by The New York Times, Mary was regarded as a typical mom of the 1960s, known for making casseroles and loving Yankovic "to the point of suffocation." Like her husband, Nick, Mary supported her son in his comedic endeavors and had no issue starring in his many music videos.

After Mary and Nick Yankovic tragically passed away in 2004, Yankovic wrote a statement on his website shortly after, saying, ". . . I feel pretty much the way you would expect me to feel — shocked and devastated beyond words. I loved my parents so much, and this all still seems like a horrible nightmare that I can't wake up from."
