Jonathan Brandis dead

[OlavZipser]

I doubt most of you here will remember him right away but he was in "Ladybugs" and "Seaquest DSR".

This is the best I can find on the subject of cause of death

"The Los Angeles County Coroner's office is investigating the death of Jonathan Gregory Brandis who died on 11/12/2003. The case was reported as a possible suicide. The Coroner has completed an autopsy but the manner and cause of death are deferred pending results of tests ordered at time of examination.

The interesting thing is, there are rumors going around that Accutane drove him to severe depression and this is why he killed himself. Somewhat frightening because I used to take Accutane.

Peace, Jon.

Yup, that's him. The funny thing is that Media seems like he's not such a hot news. This is only article I can find on him right now.

I remember he made a guest appearance on Saved by the Bell, the College Years after the gang had car trouble and had to have Thanksgiving back at the dorms or whatever, and then Screech ordered frozen turkeys. I'm a tool.

Joe Piscopo!

Is he dead?

For some reason, I think I remember reading an article on him and he was very sick.

Where the fuck is Darwin when you need him?

 

[hardrock]

Joe Piscopo- what is up with him? he used to be a ripped little bastard!

The secretary at my job two jobs ago was related to Joe Piscipo (her dad's brother I think).

As for this thread, I thought it was about Mr. Belvedere - I can't tell you how happy I am that it isn't about that and is instead about some kid dying.

 

[VitalRemains]

I'm sorry to hear that.

Joe Piscopo, didn't he have thyroid cancer?

 

[JuniorMint]
