Jeff Conaway dies.
« on: May 27, 2011, 04:57:20 PM »
He was best known for Taxi and Grease. I watched very little of Taxi and hated musicals so I never saw Grease. I liked his role as Zack Allan in Babylon 5. Babylon 5 is my favorite sci fi series. RIP Jeff.  :angel: http://www.examiner.com/tv-in-national/babylon-5-star-jeff-conaway-dead-at-60 As far as I know Andreas Katsulas was the first Babylon 5 star to go. Maybe Walter Koenig is headed for George Burns longevity.

 I saw that poor guy on a couple of seasons of Celebrity Rehab.  He was in so much pain and so addicted to painkillers.
 At least he is not suffering anymore.  I wish more could have been done for the pain, though.  :(

I thought Steve Biggs was the first to die from B5?  :dunno:

I think he was too but he was young yet with a bad heart.  I saw this the other day B% was one of my favorites too

I watch them sometime in a window when online  http://www.tv-links.eu/tv-shows/Babylon-5_80/

Richard Biggs? He died in 2004, I must have missed that one because I would have noticed had I seen it on the news. You are correct though, he preceded Andreas by almost two years. Dead at 44.  :(

Yes, Richard Biggs. AFAIK, he died of the same thing that killed John Ritter, an aortic aneurism.

I've got VHS that I recorded off of the TV.  :dunno:

I didn't like season 5 that much, Captian Lochley was annoying.

Sheridan was the best Captain. Londo Mollari was my favorite. He was a bad mother fucker. Walter Koenig was great as Bester.

Londo said one of my favorite lines from B5: "Vir! you moonfaced assassin of joy!!" :rofl:

Walter Koenig OWNED Bester!

Yep, good ole' Tron WAS the best Captian.  :thumbup:
