How the 29 Members of the Babylon 5 Cast Tragically Died?

[@WarDog793]

Thank you for this list! I became acquainted with the backgrounds of several actors whose personal tragedies I never knew about. And it's so sad that so many of them died so young.

[@juls620113]

Johnny Sekka miraculously turned into Sidney Poitier.

[@Maximus_Butthurticus]

I'm not a fan of AI generated dialog. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of voice actors that would jump at the chance to narrate videos.

[@billcame6991]

I agree 100%. I absolutely despise it and I find it lazy of content creators.

[@DiegoSouto-fy9su]

Yup. But it's simple economics, actors would cost money and time. If there was some kind of warning pre-clicking a video that it's A.I. voiced and people started avoiding it, it might hold the tide a bit. But that's not reality and as with every technology that makes anything require less human work and resources, less humans will find work in that field.

[@davidsmith-ih2kk]

I absolutely detest computer generated narrations, they mis pronounce places and names and sound dreadful.

[@Damaaskrose]

So, are you predicting Bill Mumys death? That is really creepy

[@PeterNebelung]

Seems that there are a lot of these channels, all of them posting little errors like that to make you click. I've gotten to the point that if it's something I consider is important, I'll verify it before I click on it.

[@charleshayes2528]

@@PeterNebelung Please consider going further and reporting it as misinformation. They are not "little errors" but deliberate mistakes. It only took me a few minutes to check through the main cast and find that this was not accurate - and I am only a viewer. If the maker can't be bothered to get the facts right, why should we bother to watch this junk?

[@charleshayes2528]

This is deeply offensive. While a number of cast members have died, there are a number who are still alive and implying that a majority or even the whole cast is deceased is both untrue and deeply hurtful to the surviving actors and their families. This person is solely concerned about clicks. I have reported this film and urge other commentators to do so urgently. There is a whole spate of these "cast of . . . all dead" films out there and they need to stop.

[@civilizaserifusa4731]

I agree that the Title of this video (though clearly part of a series of such videos) is very misleading in implying the entire cast had died. That said the clickbait nature drew me in and it was a great relief to discover that it ended without naming some of the major cast members. With hindsight the ensemble nature and significant number of episodes gave rise to a large cast but it is probably inevitable that one thinks of the core protagonists first and foremost. Babylon 5 disappeared behind the deplorable "subscribe to view" paywall ages ago. I have most of it on DVD, but seeing some of these characters again (particularly the Soul Gatherer) makes me wish some free to view UK channel would license it again. Failing that Straczynski's reboot bears fruit. (edited to correct his name)

[@simonmilligan7497]

@charlliehayes. Well said.

[@wp2746]

Indeed

[@markwilson3697]

They also include one off guest stars to pad the numbers.

[@charleshayes2528]

@@civilizaserifusa4731 Hi, Thanks. I was thinking a similar thing - about wishing to see the whole shebang on a free to view UK channel. I only just found out about the reboot and the movies, to be quite honest. First time around life was a bit hectic and tough and I kind of lost the plot with a number of favourite tv shows and didn't keep an eye on what was happening post the original broadcasts.

[@mikematusek4233]

I remember David McCalum as Ashley-Pitt in the Great Escape. Saying someone started leads people to think that they showed up more than once. When Jerry Died he was a Conservative talk Radio Host.

He was just stunning in Babylon 5, and even his radio show still had his Garaboldi personality. I just loved all the cast of Babylon 5, but Jerry Doyle has a special place in my heart because I just love and adore poor old Daffy Duck as well. Daffy was such a cartoon character, never succeeding but continually trying his best.

[@janysmahoney1271]

Every death (whether famous or not), is tragic; whether 1 or 99yrs, we take time t remember ALL who've lost their lives whether cruelly cut down by accident, illnesses or natural passing.

[@charleshayes2528]

@janysmahoney1271 I respect your statement, but the film is playing on your emotions and sentiments by exaggerating the reality. Not all cast members have died and I would encourage you not to watch this channel nor films like it. Report this film and if enough of us do so, perhaps Google will finally take notice and take them down. As I type there is another thumbnail falsely reporting the death of a famous film star. This causes concern and even hurt to their families.

[@misolgit69]

so why does the thumbnail show Billy Mumy being burned at the stake ?

[@Ni-qc6yq]

I am part of the stake crew do you know where he is? We are looking for him.

I use to watch Babylon 5. I was so burned out on Star Trek & welcomed something new. I'm sorry to hear of these demises. Had no idea. I liked all of the actors. Richard Biggs, I recall that tragic death. I emailed his Mother saying what a professional he was. Harlen Ellison, I read his novels, he wrote some hard hitting sharp witted Sci Fi. RIP all.

Saw Biggs around 2002 at a Con in the DFW area.

As guy I adored Delenn. Sad when I realised she was a he but that's Hollywood, but most refuse to know. Say Travolta is a female to male is just as disbelieved

[@Sargonarhes]

Why is Bill Mumy in the thumbnail but not the video, because his is still very much ALIVE. Maybe you should fix this first? But I already know the stories behind their deaths, but you forgot Marshal Teague. Who plays a role along side David McCallum and as the Narn, Talon. Some of these other actors are only in this series for one episode. William Morgan Shepard plays the Soul Hunter, but returns as G'Kar's uncle. Turhan Bey plays the Centauri Emperor but returns in the 5th season as a Minbari in the Rangers.

[@pedrocardenasjr9325]

Was that Sydney Portiere?

[@briangoss8062]

I literally stopped watching in 90 seconds due to the horrible audio ( AI generated ). Good job guys of cranking out garbage just for views and clicks and free money and absolutely no care to the subject and community. Don't waste your time people.

Alot of these are people who only made one appearance as a guest star. Constantly saying 'They joined the cast of B5' is misleading. Could have said,"this is when they guest starred on B5😮 The Cast or Main Cast of B5 are only those who appear in the opening title credits.😮

[@Lp-ze1tg]

No offence, but can you imagine what would happen if you told some of these actors who might be passed away within a decade after playing their part in the drama series.

[@LesterManley-s9n]

Again, David McCallum was only in ONE episode.😮😮😮

[@JaneKaplun-js4lp]

[@larry1350]

Where’s Bill Mumy? He’s not dead.

[@mattlewandowski73]

It should be noted that many of these played single episode parts, and many did not die tragically, they died of old age after 70+ years of living a full life. Yes B5 had its share of tragic deaths. Drugs, alcohol, suicide, illness, and accident. Many left a significant impact on the cast, crew, and fans. This channel is bad about bad AI "voice over", and clickbait titles.

[@RobertEWaters]

Ok. The guy doing this doesn't know the difference between Stars and Guest Stars and just assumes every guest star was a contining character on the show. I wont comment again.. geez

So, ALL the cast died? Was Babylon 5 a curse?
