Vir Cotto, Mr. Potato Head, Dark Shadows, Terror From the Year 5000, Fringe, Terminator 2: Judgement Day, Star Blazers, Invasion: Earth.



Stephen Furst was always one of my favorite characters on Babylon 5. It was nice to have a character who was created to relieve the tension in the sometimes tense episodes.
