I started to type up a response to this using the words "gerbil" and "behind him", but I deleted it because it was in really poor taste and I am striving to become a better person.

Better Call Saul apparently has a much larger cast than Breaking Bad (700+ people). From them Grant James died last month. including: Juan Carlos Cantu (imdb) Manuel Varga Jean Effron (imdb) Irene Landry. Not sure how old she is, but looked ancient at the end of the series. Carol Herman (imdb) Geraldine Strauss. Again not sure how old she is, but plays one of the only characters in the franchise who die of old age. Barry Corbin - more known from other stuff, but he's one of those who looked pretty ancient in the show. Also mentioned in this thread a few pages back that he has oral cancer. Kevin Sussman - more known from other stuff, but, he plays a guy with pancreatic cancer. Sometimes those types are actually ill too.

Ron Logan - former exec VP for Disney - he ran their live entertainment at various levels for 30 years, including 20+ at the corporate level - oversaw all of the big theme park shows you know like Fantasmic, Illuminations, tonnes of parades and fireworks shows, created Disney Theatrical and put Beauty and the Beast on Broadway (among many others). He was in the same Disney Legends class as Randy Newman, and (as he told me although I've not found the tape), gave a speech at Robin Williams' induction ceremony. Got a lot of stories from him, and he taught me almost everything I know about entertainment, especially at theme parks (I studied theme park management in undergrad, and sort of in grad school). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
