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.

[@Pauls_Hi-Jinks]

lol yep

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.

[@larry1350]

Where’s Bill Mumy? He’s not dead.

[@markwilson3697]

Harlan Ellison wasn't even a cast member, but a consultant

[@century_bombers]

I'm sure he played a Psy-Cop in one episode.

[@janysmahoney1271]

Lifes so fleeting,enjoy it whilst we all can and look after each other...

[@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?

[@PeterNebelung]

Wow I never knew Harlan Ellison was in Babylon 5! The writer of one of the most famous Star Trek episodes, The city on the edge of forever, starring Joan Collins and the incredible book, I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream!

[@RogbodgeVideo]

He was the voice of Sparky, the AI interface for the rebooted computer system when Babylon 5 left the Earth Alliance.

[@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.

[@PLANETENKILLER_75]

Greetings from Germany. I love science fiction, I love Babylon 5. At the moment I happen to be watching Babylon 5 again. Science fiction that is second to none! 🤗

[@PeterNebelung]

the Character pic of Brocksmith is actually from Star Trek Next Generation. The arrogant never lost game player who Data drove nuts by just keeping him from winning. " I busted him Up".

[@janysmahoney1271]

Conway will always be one of my onscreen loves as Knicky (Grease). Man i would of died f8 1 of those Icky from Knickys

[@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.

[@marla4ful]

Jerry Doyle and I shared the same birthday, but different year. Some I have seen in other shows or movies, not many.

[@2150dalek]

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.

[@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.

[@jeffr9945]

Always loved this show because they showed the craziest aliens that I ever seen. Characters were so unique too.

Was that Sydney Portiere?

[@davidwebster3090]

How do you mistake Jonny Sekka for Sidney Poitier ?

[@LesterManley-s9n]

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.😮

[@bridgetboyle687]

Bill Mumy is still alive.

[@beardykane]

That's a hell of a lot of shadows cast...

[@Thenogomogo-zo3un]

"Died tragically"? Is there ever a case of someone "dying happily"? "died, happily at home while doing some DIY"

[@miles2378]

What did Vir Coto do to duserve a leathal injection and who burned Billy Mummy at the steak?

[@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.

[@mutanthybrid3466]

Might want to check your thumbnail clickbait facts. Some of these people did not die.

[@LesterManley-s9n]

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

[@JaneKaplun-js4lp]

It mispronounced his name from the Man from U-N-C-L-E ! And it was ridiculous that the AI voice spelled out U.N.C.L.E.

[@mikemadden6322]

Morgan was also gkars uncle...

[@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.

[@janysmahoney1271]

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

[@charleshayes2528]

@janysmahoney1271. If you can comment on here, surely you can use a computer and search online or go to wikipedia. They are not all dead. This film is a lie.

[@LesterManley-s9n]

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

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. They couldn't even get the first characters name right. Didn't bother with the rest.
