My niece tells me that the people who host the show tried an intervention of sorts, and that's when he lost it on them. They found him ODed the next day, when they came to wake him for the next day's work, and took him to the hospital.

(For anyone who, like me, has the good taste *not* to indulge in reality TV, he was on the latest installment of "Celebrity Fit Club". He lasted all of two shows before he ODed on something and almost died. And I know about it only because my niece asked me.) "B.

The reptilian G'kar was one of the most complex and believable aliens I've seen outside of Spock or Worf. Remember how in the beginning of B5 he was a womanizing mercenary? He lived to strike back at the Centauri, and did all kinds of unsavory things to do so. Over the years he changed, learning to get past his hatred, losing an eye in the process. I loved the episode where he got high on the telepathy- and strength-enhancing Dust, and attacked Lando, literally pulling from his mind all the dirty deeds he'd done to Narn. In time G'Kar became a type of warrior monk, Lando's personal bodyguard (!), yet a source of wisdom and guidance of the Narn trying to work past their hatred. What a journey he took. So too did Lando, though of course he and his people had a much more tragic path to take. > > -------------- Original message -------------- > From: "g123curious" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > FYI: > > > http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire/index.php?category=1 <http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire/index.php?category=1 <http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire/index.php?category=1&id=34628> &id=34628> &id=34628 > > Ken > > Katsulas also starred in "The Fugitive" film with Harrison Ford. > > George > Captain > The USS Ronald E.
