This makes me sad. I was particularly a fan of his performance in Sports Night, which was interrupted when he suffered a stroke during the show's first season. --Bob

I loved Benson and can't figure out how I saw so many episodes. It's not like it was the lead-in to Monday Night Football.

I thought Rafiki was great too.

Soap, and then Benson. He was a comedic genius. :cry:

Yeah, they took off Sports Night for some silly game show.
