Liked him. Grew up with him basically, with shows such as “Policewoman”, etc. He was equally good a a good guy and a bad one. What do you say about the guy who was in the very first “Twilight Zone” episode? He always seemed lie a standup guy to me, that’s how he came off, I don’t think I’m wrong. He had that likable quality. When I saw his picture on the Moviechat page then I knew he probably died.

Was shocked reading his bio, I never knew ANY of this. His birth, that he was adopted and had TEN siblings! Man, I hope in his life he got to track all of them down and was reunited. It would suck if he didn’t or couldn’t. Life sure can deal you a bad hand but he came out on top I’d say. Rest in peace Earl.

I was a bit shocked to learn he was gay (not that there is anything wrong with that) I had no idea.

Me too! Just found out.

And he was, from what I have read, a genuinely nice man and an advocate for animal welfare.

First saw him in Police Woman. Really liked his character in that. RIP Earl.
