I find it very sad. I was just watching him yesterday on an old “Law & Order: SVU.” I assumed when there was no news after his stroke it was not a good sign.
Wasn’t he also in “Oz?”
And he was in another series some years back where a bunch of people in an office pooled their money to buy lottery tickets and hit it big, with the Luke Perry character and the others each receiving $20 million.
you always an asshole or what?
His face looks really worn out in recent photos.
Previous health problems?
Alcohol or drug problems?
So young.....very sad!!!!
It’s such a shock because he seemed in such great condition. You just never know... very sad.
Once a person hits 50, some will age very fast. My co-worker looks nothing like his security identification now and it was taken only 5 years ago.
Yes, I saw the Buffy-movie, and have seen some of the Riverdale episodes.
Many artists are lost due to drug addiction.
I saw him in a movie where he played a PBR legend, forgot the name.
