Yes that’s a long time ago and I believe before my time? Maybe? He died recent didn’t he?
Ray Walston died 11 years ago at 86.
My Favorite Martian was certainly before *my* time (I was too young to go see Fast Times when it came out), but theu used to show reruns on TBS and I watched the show a few times.
And I see that DJ already filled you in re: Ray Walston’s passing.
