A sad passing

Also from the Deadpool site comes that sad news that Andreas Katsulas has passed away.

Andreas played the alien Ambassador G'Kar in the 5 years that Babylon 5 was on the air. I have very rarely been glued to a TV series and looked forward to every week and to every new season but Babylon 5 was for me a must see and Andreas was one of the main reasons why. He played a powerful character and played him very well.

I will be watching Babylon 5 DVD's tonight in his honor.

He also played in lots of other series (including Star Trek) and movies as you can read in the link.

Startrek Lives

Well the last Star Trek series has finished and there will not be any more , at least that is the current word.

That however does not mean that Star Trek is dead and forgotten, far from it has this article about the just finished Official Star Trek Convention shows.

Over 15,000 of the faithful showed up to see 4 of the 5 of the enterprise captains at the Las Vegas Hilton.

If I had staying in Vegas for two weeks I could have had a twofer of DefCon and Star Trek. Of course I would have returned this week to find my wife and daughter gone or else ready to make me pay in several painful ways.
