RIP Michael O' Hare
Sep. 30th, 2012 08:46 am...who, like most of the Bablyon 5 actors who have gone before him, just passed away at the age of 60. (Except for Zathras' actor, who was 50, and Dr. Franklin, who was 56.)
I liked Michael O'Hare's Commander Sinclair very much. It took me a while to warm up to him, as he was playing a cerebral and somewhat wooden figure (by direction, I suspect), but he was a great character. I loved the reveal; he pulled it off quite plausibly in his final two-parter.

Here's all the B5 actors who are already gone. I find this shocking:
- Richard Biggs (Dr. Franklin) d. 2004
- Tim Choate (Zathras) d. 2004
- Andreas Katsulas (G'kar) d. 2006
- Jeff Conaway (Zack) d. 2011
- Michael O'Hare (Commander Sinclair/V[SPOILERS]) d. 2012
Considering how long fans of Trek have been able to enjoy touching base with their mythological heroes' actors, Babylon 5 has had a very rum run. They were all so young.
