Clarence Gilyard RIP

[DanOregon]

'Die Hard' Actor Clarence Gilyard Dead at 66

Got to give a shout-out to the coiner of "The Quarterback IS toast!" not to mention Sundown in Top Gun.

 

[Regan MacNeil]

Also a series regular and co-star in this memorable scene:

 

[Jake from State Farm]

Also an early member of the Matlock cast

 

[Shropshire Slasher]

The "quarterback is toast" is one of the several Die Hard quotes I remember.

I hate that the last thing I saw him in was A Matter of Faith. He deserved better than that.

Actually, a later member of the cast. Series started with Kene Holliday playing Ben Matlock's investigator, and Gilyard took over when Holliday left.

Pretty sure Theo was the only one of the villians to survive after Argyle clocked him.

Conan’s Walker Texas Ranger lever is my favorite late-night bit ever.
