That sucks! He was one of the best characters on B5! We're losing way too many people from that group.

Too young. Wouldn't be a bit surprised if Belushi's in charge of giving him his new name in Heaven.

No... Not Vir.
He was the best Emperor the Centauri ever had.

In the celebrity jerk thread someone mentioned Michael O'Hare and how it as announced. I looked it up on YouTube and watched the entire panel where the announcement was made. At he end Stephen said Babylon 5 saved his life. His kidneys failed because of the diabetes and that the life expectancy on dialysis was seven years. A fan heard about it and donated a kidney. So we could have been reading this news years ago.

Met Stephen Furst at ChillerCon years ago. Nice fella. Awful he died so young.

DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just finished watching some Bab-5 logged on and now this.....

Absolutely heartbroken

There is a photo that I just found after years of looking for it that has the cast against a wall and I was thinking how sad it was that Biggs, and Andy K, standing next to each other with Doyle sweeping with a broom in front of them were gone.

Furst was standing next to Andy.

Great Maker please make it stop!

We're losing way too many people from that group.

Cripes, Just bought the whole series on dvd. Been working through season by season. Vir had such a great story arc. From nervous lackey of Londo to Emperor of Centauri Prime. He will be missed and remembered.

A couple of his best scenes ,

Vir will be missed. His scenes were so full of heart. That subtle comedy of his was the perfect foil for Londo.
