CowgirlsFan Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 So that explains the ""Benson"" I saw posted on Facebook a few days ago that I didn't have a chance to research. Sad. RIP My condolences to his family,his friends and his fans.
Taro T Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 He took strong material in SOAP & Sports Night & made Benson & Isaac awesome. (Wanted to say iconic, but don't expect enough people watched Sports Night to put that role there.) RIP Robert.
The Dean Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 He took strong material in SOAP & Sports Night & made Benson & Isaac awesome. (Wanted to say iconic, but don't expect enough people watched Sports Night to put that role there.) RIP Robert. Sports Night was a great show. RG was terrific as Isaac.
Mark Vader Posted October 27, 2017 Author Posted October 27, 2017 He had a small role in Big Fish. I also remember his small roles in "Lean On Me" & "Seems Like Old Times".
DC Tom Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Sports Night was a great show. RG was terrific as Isaac. Very under-appreciated show - I suspect ABC had absolutely no idea what kind of show it was supposed to be, and what to do with it. And the entire cast was great...but Guillaume was so good, I remember him for Sports Night before even Benson, which I used to love watching growing up.
Saxum Posted October 28, 2017 Posted October 28, 2017 I found his voice distinct so loved him for Rafiki in the Lion King.
