R.I.P. René Auberjonois

Rene Auberjonois, ‘Star Trek’ and ‘Boston Legal’ Actor, Dies at 79

 

Died from metastatic lung cancer.

 

Great actor! he was an Altman regular for a while. Mash, Images, McCabe and Mrs Miller...

 

Having grown up with Benson he'll always be Clayton Endicott III to me.

 

amazing in star trek DS9

 

I had no idea he had such a long and varied career. Well done. I've been too obsessed about Deep Space Nine, I guess!

 

There was time back in the 70's when he seemed to be everywhere. Very sorry to hear of his passing.

RIP.

 

I saw him interviewed once where he talked about his film debut in Lilith, where he had to help Warren Beatty on a horse at a renaissance fair. It seems ol' Warren was a PITA even then.

RIP

 

Can't believe Dago Red is gone.

 

RJ is interviewed in a doc on making MASH, where he discusses improvising during the blessing a jeep scene.

 

He had a fairly prominent role in a largely-forgotten 1972 Carol Burnett and Walter Matthau comedy Pete 'N' Tillie. I was surprised to see him crop up in it late one night about 15 years ago.

 

Great classic guy. Loved him on Benson. RIP.

 

I was trying to find on YouTube the scene where the guys broadcast Hot Lips and Frank to the rest of the camp. Father Mulcahy’s reaction when it finally dawns on him what he’s hearing is priceless.

 

Sad. An Altman staple. Fav roles would be MASH or McCabe. RIP

 

He was great to the end. He was wonderful in Raising Buchanan.

 

Great actor. Loved him in Deep Space Nine, Benson and many other series. He also appeared in a Night Gallery episode with Ross Martin. Rest in Peace.

 

RIP René Auberjonois a varied and terrific actor! sad news to hear today....

 

Awww...
I loved him, he was worth watching in everything he did, from MASH to Benson to Boston Legal. Terrific actor!

R.I.P.

 

Found it.

 

I just remember him from Boston Legal. RIP

 

He actually plays the romantic lead as Susannah York's husband in Altman's Images.

 

I’d hardly describe his role as romantic.

 

This news is hitting me hard, and I don’t know why that is.

 

Just saw him last week in The Big Bus.

 

In his honor, I'm going to go lay in my bucket.
