at 14:29 | RIP Dean StockwellA true legend has passed. I'll remember him best as Al on Quantum Leap where he brought a lot of laughs as he worked to help Sam find his way home.
In a weird way after learning of his death I went to watch YouTube but pressed play on my DVD instead. What was on, an episode of the A-Team he did.
RIP Dean, you will be remembered and missed

at 14:34 | RIP Dean Stockwellbeing an older player here... he was one of the actors in the 'new' sci-fi stuff...what we look back on now as 'campy'...it was cutting edge back then.
he was a character actors , to be sure, but he could carry scenes by himself... we are losing alot of folks like this now.

at 14:39 | RIP Dean StockwellHe was also in the new Battlestar Galactica and Star Trek (Capt Archer version) and LOTs of other things as well. Started as a child actor for MGM and went on from there. I been looking over all the stuff he was in, its a long list. From Comedy, to horror, to sci fi. He was a talented person who I don't think ever did a bad character (may have been in a few bad movies, but his characters never came across as 2 dimentional.)
He will be missed.
