Bruce Boxleitner: Tron, Sheridan from Babylon 5, Woody from Chuck

[@nosoupforyou425]

Your Babylon 5 role is my favourite of your work - such a fun time, even re-watching now 30 yrs later. Cheers

[@AliceTolson]

So good to hear him interview and talk about his work, just love him!!!! He is a special actor to me!!! Loved him every since I saw "Scarecrow and Mrs. King!" but have seen him in other movies and shows, and Just love all his roles, and performances! Thx for sharing..

[@Calriec]

It is sad about how all the Babylon 5 alum who have passed away. RIP Michael O'Hare (Sinclair), Andreas Katsulas (G'Kar), Richard Biggs (Dr. Franklin), Jeff Conaway (Zach Allen), Tim Choate (Zathras), and Robin Sachs (multiple roles).

It might be easier to list the ones who are still alive instead.

[@AliceTolson]

I heard..was it Covid? Or what happened to them? Gee..

[@thesilvershining]

Still cute and hilarious after all these years. He’s an underrated actor, bless him

[@annamcuthbert3993]

Yes I agree, handsome too

Not sure why it did show up on my suggested videos today, but my first experience of Bruce was in "How the West Was Won" as Luke Macahan. I have to check Tron since it was so long ago I watched it that I didn't realize he was there. But he did a great character in Babylon 5. I think that we don't appreciate all the hard working actors enough that often have to resort to temporary roles or in less appreciated shows while some actors are over-used in so many roles that you start to confuse their roles and movies. One of the greatest thing with Babylon 5 was that the characters evolved so much - which made the story a lot more realistic.

[@davesworld7961]

How the West was Won was my favorite show at the time and Babylon 5 is my favorite show of all time. But I've never seen an episode of Scarecrow and Mrs King.

[@darskicutler1894]

Scarecrow was a fave TV show of mine. he and Kate Jackson were a good team

[@AliceTolson]

Loved him in "How the West was Won" too, Luke Macahan!!!! He played that part so well, too! Great show..too bad they didn't make another season of that too..

[@guardian33]

Goeth now to TUBI which has it and babylon 5.

[@annamcuthbert3993]

A very good interview xx

[@annamcuthbert3993]

He is a lovely Gentleman

[@kurtjk01]

"And the original Wild, Wild West was probably the original Steampunk TV show." God damn, but I love me some Boxleitner: he nailed the origin of Steampunk; I though only myself and four friends remember that origin point.

[@Allan_aka_RocKITEman]

kurtjk01 >>> If by "origin point" you specifically mean TWWW, I *remember* it as well. FWIW: Just last year, I happened to come across a DVD box set of the entire series at a Walmart I was shopping at, and I *grabbed it* immediately....

[@Calriec]

He's a great actor, and deserved a lot better than these crappy TV movies he's been doing lately (especially the SyFy Channel ones!).

[@Angela26116516541]

Can't wait for Tron 3

[@DarkMatterZine]

Lantern City has a website and Bruce is on Twitter - try supporting via either of those. I can't post links in comments, sorry. If I hear of any petition or any other way of showing support, I'll be sure to pass it on via FB, G+, Twitter, my website etc.

[@imnotacommittee]

Thanks! I don't have twitter, but I'mm off to Lantern City to see how I can help.

[@Connycjb]

Eh! that would be super if Bruce and Kate did Scarecrow and Mrs. King....if CBS does not buy it as a television...how about a tv movie...have the dvds and pre-ordered season 4 and cannot wait....Conny

[@kingdotsize86]

with Al and Peggy Bundy as next door neighbors

[@RCTPatriot75]

Sad hearing him talk about his cast mates passing then immediately talking about Mira.

[@DarkMatterZine]

It was sad but he wanted to focus on someone who’s alive and well.

[@DarkMatterZine]

I only just discovered Mira died last month; someone else commented on my video interview of Mira. So sad.

[@annamcuthbert3993]

Yes I agree. Mira and him were fantastic as Delenn and John seemed very realistic couple, true to life. Now she with others before. Beyond the Rim as they say in B5

[@patrickandrews8714]

Condolences about the passing of leading lady Mira/Delenn!

[@patrickandrews8714]

Steam punk sounds like making a future Sci Fi society for the mere survival in a different world place than here and now; using advanced development of present conventional technological theories! Not necessarily fighting against aliens; but technical problems and social problems, arising in confronting obstacles in a dangerous alien place! Ultimately creating a self sufficient world with a strange mix of conventionally understood principles, that tend to emancipate the characters from their tired old former lives!

[@AliceTolson]

He'd be good at teaching acting classes too.

[@AliceTolson]

Id like to see him more in Western type series..and romance series..hes good at whatever he does.though.

[@DarkMatterZine]

Yes I think so too. TBH I loathed the captain of the Enterprise tv series. Later I learnt that he chose that style that was an imitation of John Wayne (shudder but he did it well, I just don’t like John Wayne’s style). I found him VERY disconcerting and was disappointed someone like Bruce Boxleitner didn’t get the role.

[@AliceTolson]

@@DarkMatterZine idk if yr aware of this, just so you know, BB is a big fan of John Wayne's..

[@DarkMatterZine]

@@AliceTolson No I didn’t know that but Bruce didn’t “do a John Wayne” as Sheridan (thank goodness!)

[@DarkMatterZine]

Yes. Lantern City FTW. -fingers crossed-

[@self-transforming_machine-elf]

'the gentlemen who play the video games' sounds way better than ' gamers', dontcha think

[@barbarasunday3514]

Add. Scarecrow was ok. But I Loved Sheridan!

[@imnotacommittee]

If what he's saying at 5:30 is true and comes into being, I'd would be over the moon. If there's any way of showing support for a new movie/TV show, let me know. I would love to help.

[@AliceTolson]

Would definetely love to see him BB and Kate Jackson do some more SMK!!!! I'm all for it!!! I absolutely loved that show..and loved their chemistry together! Sad that they didn't get to make a 5th Season!!

[@Historian212]

Here’s something revolutionary in re a Scarecrow and Mrs. King Revival: how about NOT having the parents be doddering idiots, and let it be wisdom plus youthful enthusiasm, with each side making their mistakes and contributing their strengths. Makes a much more interesting show, appeals to all generations, and no one generation has to look like idiots. All those stale jokes have been done to death. Think outside the box instead.
