RIP Apollo.
I ran into him at few DragonCons. He seemed like a good guy.
I don’t hold the last season of The Streets Of San Francisco against him. It was running out steam.

I’d much rather have had a revived BSG based on that short glorified awesome trailer than that OK reboot.

Dirk Benedict had stage 4 prostate cancer, a number of years ago. Claims he was cured by a macrobiotic diet.

Darn. I was looking forward to see more of his character now that the lawsuit is settled.
