Dean Stockwell passed away on Sunday, at the age of 85, from natural causes. May he rest in peace.

While I may not have been the biggest Quantum Leap fan, I did love Al. My favorite episode is probably the one that aired around Halloween one year, where Al was Satan. When I finally watched him on Battlestar Galactica within the last couple of years, I found Cavil fascinating; here’s my favorite moment with him.

Looking through his filmography, I didn’t realize that he was the older Tim Drake in Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker. I had no idea that he was an uncredited valet attendant in Once Bitten (1985). At some point, I need to track down his episode of Hammer House of Mystery And Suspense, titled The Sweet Scent of Death.

Willie Garson has passed away, at the age of 57, following a battle with pancreatic cancer. May he rest in peace.

I mostly remember loving him as Mozzie from the brief time (probably just saw the first season, and part of season 2, not sure; I wandered away and never cared enough to return) I watched White Collar years ago. I knew he recently popped up on a few episodes of Supergirl when I happened to look in on that show, and during a rewatch of a few episodes of Quantum Leap (on Comet) a few months back, I was surprised to realize that he played Lee Harvey Oswald.

After looking through his filmography, I realized that I do remember him from Soapdish (1991) and Stargate SG-1. In the latter, he was the alien that helped produce Wormhole X-Treme. He was apparently a bodyguard in an episode of Buffy: Killed By Death, from season 2.

Ned Wertimer has passed away at the age of 89. May he rest in peace. He may be best known as the doorman on The Jeffersons. For MST3K fans, he played reporter Andy Henderson in Santa Claus Conquers The Martians.
