That sucks

Man B5 has really lost a lot of actors

The list long and sad,even if you just count the tier 1 actors.

- Michael O'Hare
- Andreas Katsulas
- Jerry Doyle
- Richard Biggs

Counting just Biggs, Katsulas, O'Hare and Doyle that's 4 out of the 9 original main cast members gone.

If you start going over the list of secondary and tertiary actors who have died the list becomes a sad joke.

Babylon 5 is a show your either love or care nothing for..

IO still think for the budget the had at the time--it was far better then people gave it credit for.

It had 1/2 the budget then either voyager or deep space 9 and they got a lot done

As soon as I read this Londo saying "Mr. Garibaldi" popped into my head. Loved that show. I still re-watch it every couple of years.

Didn't watch Babylon 5, but caught syndicated broadcasts of his talk radio show a few times on very early commutes to an old part-time job. Shocking he died so young.

R.I.P.

Babylon 5 wasn't as good as DS9 but I certainly enjoyed it when I was younger and it had its moments of being as good as anything on TV with regard to Scifi

I especially enjoyed the Shadow War arch.. Of course the Dominion War on DS9 was still better

Still it was great time to grow up in 90's with all the Scifi options on TV

Its just crazy, shows like tng and ds9 have had their main crew live long (and prosper) while B5 keeps having early deaths. I just re-watched the entire series last summer. Sad to see what happened to everyone.

Damn. Mr. Garibaldi is my favourite B5 character.

This is my favorite Garabaldi scene in the series. (Volume is a little low) I was shocked when I read the news yesterday. Loved that character.

RiP.

His battle with the bottle was part of his character on Babylon 5--Doyle said when was stock broker he drank 24/7 and he learned to drink later in life. Sounds like it was his drinking in his younger days that wore his body down

Well, at least The Scarecrow...errr...I mean Bruce Boxleitner's still around.

How come Scarecrow and Mrs. King was never syndicated, incidentally?
