Peter Jurasik remembers Andreas Katsulas-Philadelphia Wizard World 2011

Peter reads from an introduction he wrote about Andreas.

Please forgive the shakiness of the video at the beginning. The person in front and to the right was trying to get his own video and got in my way.

Wonderful to see this, and to know how Peter felt about Andreas. I loved him and loved G'Kar and both of them should have had Emmy awards. They were magnificent.

@CCB5er34 As actors and their respective characters they complemented each other beautifully. Kind of like the chemistry between Spock and McCoy, on a different level and just as strong.

A very nice tribute to his dear friend. (And I never knew before today that Mr. Katsulas was a Christian.)

Wow, Lando is acting like a human really well, amazingly good American accent.

I think if we could hear what Andreas/Gkar might say I think it would be something like this.

Ascension Coleen Hitchcock And if I go, while you're still here...know that I live on, vibrating to a different measure behind a thin veil you cannot see through. You will not see me, so you must have faith. I wait for the time when we can soar together again, both aware of each other. Until then, live your life to its fullest. And when you need me, just whisper my name in your heart, I will be there.

Back in 2001, I bought a limited edition of a statue of G'Kar's face. I finally convinced my wife to watch B5. She usually doesn't like most of the shows I'm watching, even less Sci-fi related. She did, to my surprise, enjoyed the show and has watched 4 seasons in less than a week. Lately, she told me I could display the statue in our place. I thought she was kidding so I told her we could do it during the halloween time. She said "nah, Halloween is too far away , let's do it now".Tks JohnS1999!

I remember watching one of the extras on the "Lost Tales" DVD...and they talk about how the character's name was supposed to be pronounced "Jackar" and Anrdreas changed it to "G'kar" and he supposedly quipped "I'm French, deal with it".

Then there's the pic of Andreas in makeup, holding (I think) Bruce Boxenleitner's infant son.

Apparently, Mr. Katsulas was a class act.
