David Soul, from Starsky and Hutch fame, died at 80.
Gary Ghaham, lead in Alien Nation series and character actor in Star Trek as well as many other has died at aged 73 due to cardiac arrest.

I heard from various Trek Facebook pages about Gary Graham. Pretty sad. I liked the character of Ambassador Soval, and how his opinion of humans changed over the course of the seasons.

He didn't have the most profilic career, but damn, he had some iconic roles. It's a big loss.

While it wasn't his best known role, his small part in Arrested Development was great.
For those music fans among us, Wayne Kramer, guitarist from the legendary MC5, has died at 75.

"Ian Lavender: Dad's Army star dies aged 77"
Birmingham-born Lavender was just 22 when he was cast as the guileless platoon member, in what was then a new BBC sitcom.
But it made him a household name, and he ended up pending 10 years as part of the comedy classic.
Lavender, who died on Friday, was the last surviving main cast member of the series.
That'd be Pike, of "Don't tell him, Pike".

Richard Lewis, standup comic/actor dies at 76.
https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/28/entertainment/richard-lewis-death/index.html
His standup era was before my time, but he was a regular(as himself) in Curb Your Enthusiasm, which is currently running its final season on HBO.

He apparently died on March 1, but waiting a week for the announcement is not unusual. I like the idea of letting family and friends deal with death before opening gates on their privacy.

Dude seemed like a staple of all the movies I watched in the 1980's early 90's.

Daniel Kahnemann died at the end of March.
His "Thinking fast and slow" was one of the most important books I've read and was one of the milestones of my perception of reality changing from infantile "what I see is true because my brain wants me to know this truth".
