It’s sad how all the Babylon 5 actors are dying off so quickly. By my count, about half of the principle cast is gone which rules out any real reunion.
For a long time Jerry played a favorite, the cynical yet reliable Mr. Garibaldi, the station’s chief security officer. His alcoholism was a decent, realistic crutch but I felt it wasn’t executed plausibly since I got a front-row seat to the actual behavior in college through a wing mate.
He never really did too much before or after B5 as you’ll see his credits are pretty brief on imdb.com. It might explain why he then joined the ranks of other D-listers with politically right-wing views that tend to be aligned with Birthers, Rush Limbaugh, Michael Savage (he would sub for him) and others I feel just bitch about sour grapes…aka, they blame Liberals for why they’re not as famous as they think they deserve to be. Nevermind Bruce Willis, Stallone, Ah-nold and Clint Eastwood.
Putting aside his toxic politics and book, I’m sad to see Jerry pass. He did a great job acting on B5 which contributed to this show going toe-to-toe with Star Trek:DS9.
