Too bad. He was great as J'kar. Loved Babylon 5...

[Joe Brower]

This guy was great as G'Kar in B5, and made that series better than it already was with his portrayal of that "alien warrior-turned-philosopher" character.

The one arm man?

I bet Jerry Doyle wiil talk about him today on his show.

[DoctorMichael]

Two memorable characters................

[camle]

If one takes a historical prespective of Babylon 5, the Narn were the french. when the series started, they were aggressors, hitting the Centaauri colony at Ragesh something-or-other like Napoleon hit the germans and russians. But then as The Centauri, who were the Gernans in WW-II attacked, the NArn regime didn't last too long, merely resistance units were left.

The Minbari (england) and Earth (The US) stood by, watched and tsk-tsked a lot, but they had problems of their own until other events moved the show from a WW-II motif to a cold war scenario with the Shadows representing the communists.

the station was, of course the "league of nations".

Strazinsky was/is a genius in his analogy.

Remarkable how expressive his face was even through all the makeup. What a great character he created. Very sad news.

here's his web site

Citizen G'Kar: G'Quon wrote, "There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain."

I pulled that quote from here. Lot's of great quotes. I have got to watch it again.

Luke Skywalker's Uncle Owen died too...89.

And Dick Cheney was no where around.

[Antoninus]

Met him at a sci-fi convention once. Seemed like a nice fellow.

Grant him eternal rest, O Lord.

I was listening to Jerry Doyle ( Garibaldi on B5) on the way home last night, His show was all about Andy K.
He was telling personal stories, about how Andy put him up during his divorce.
He said that Andy K. went out every Sunday morning bought groceries then cooked for a homeless shelter.
Notice, there's no hint of this on his web pages.
( Not just thanksgiving photo ops like most of hollywood)
Definitely not your average hollywood guy.
And he told the canned ham story, which he promised Andy he would never tell while Andy was alive, You could tell that Jerry was working hard to honor his friend.
Another fine human passes into history.

[Nachum]

A fine actor.

Rest in peace.

RIP.

[Conservomax]

What can you say? The guy made a good Alien.

[discostu]

Terribly sad to see the way time is passing and taking the people that made B5 great away from us. Dr Franklin is gone, G'Kar is gone, Zathras is gone. Life far too short for all of them.
