Post by: Labbug on November 26, 2016, 05:22:56 PM
There is a report out that Ron Glass has died.  He had roles in Barney Miller and Firefly.

(I would attach a link, but I don't know how to do that.)

I will always remember the scene from Mel Brooks' Robin Hood-like TV show, "When Things Were Rotten" where they.... finally reveal who the 'Black Knight' is. And it's Ron Glass in a suit of armor. Really funny but you had to be there.  :clap:

Really?  More people know Ron Glass from 'Firefly' than 'Barney Miller?'  What a crazy world we live in.
