Loved her in WKRP, then she had an unfortunate dalliance with Burt Reynolds' hairpiece and her career was over.

The bastard!

You have to be a bastard if you have a shitty alias like Turd Ferguson.

Terrence Stamp, 87 actor, Zod, Priscilla, some guy in the phantom menace.

Now kneeling before god.

On New Year's Eve 2002, Stamp married for the first time at the age of 64. His 29-year-old bride was Elizabeth O'Rourke, whom Stamp first met in the mid-1990s at a chemist's shop in Bondi, New South Wales. Of Australian and Indian-Singaporean parentage, O'Rourke was brought up in Singapore before moving to Australia in her early twenties to study pharmacology. The couple divorced on the grounds of his "unreasonable behaviour" in April 2008.

Seems like quite a character in real life too.

I enjoyed him on The Red Green Show.

 

[CaptainWacky]

He was one of the very few good things in Defiance.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

I loved how he played a noble Native American in Dances With Wolves, and then 4 years later did a total sendup of it in Maverick. RIP.

Good innings but another giant of the industry that with his passing makes you feel an entire era is slipping away.
