That Dude From "The Roseanne Show" Died - - No, Not John Goodman!

Currently, he was on the show "Angel"... now he's dead. Another overdose victim, they speculate.

Read on...


"Angel" Actor Dies
Mon Dec 9,12:45 PM ET

Glenn Quinn, 32, an actor best known for his recurring role on the sitcom "Roseanne" who also was a former co-star on "Angel," was found dead Dec. 3 in Los Angeles. Authorities attributed his death to a possible drug overdose pending completion of medical tests.

He joined the cast of "Roseanne" in its third season, playing Becky Connor's boyfriend and later husband, Mark Healy. He later co-starred as the half-demon Doyle on "Angel," a spinoff of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" that debuted in 1999.

Mr. Quinn, a native of Ireland, came to this country in 1988. He made his feature film debut with a supporting role as a drummer in the 1991 John Travolta movie "Shout" and went on to appear in "Dr. Giggles," "Live Nude Girls" and "Campfire Tales."

Any senseless death is a waste... regardless of the person or how he or she dies. In this day & age, 2 die at 32 from an accidental (or purposeful?) overdose is sad...

...and a waste.

I always thought he was good in that role of Becky's rebellious boyfriend. I must admit, I had never seen "Angel" and had no idea that he was on it... 8)


Still, we r all allowed our opinions...

RIP Glenn Quinn

Oddly I never watch this show (Roseanne), but I have caught it a couple of times in the last few days and he was featured in both shows. Very sad for those who loved him on a personal level.
