Wow. This is one of those "I swear he was already dead" type folks.

He was in almost everything back in the early 80s.

Dude played a pretty good a-hole in 9 to 5.

I remember him mostly in 9 to 5 and “Jack Flack” in Cloak & Dagger.

RIP

I saw 9 to 5 way too young and it took a long time for me to realize they put him in a sex swing and a ball gag.

I first knew about him as the VA for Principal Prickly from Recess. That character really suited him, especially with the mustaches.

Dude gave his all in the 9 to 5 and Cloak & Dagger roles! Great performances.

RIP, Dabney.

Coleman had a curious career. He'd been in H'wood for a decade (he's in a B&W Fugitive) and had done guest shots on virtually every cop show you can name before he finally started getting offered comedy parts well into his '40s.

Since I was 22 years old, I've been waiting to use this line when somebody called me a freak. Maybe it'll happen for me soon.I'm sure it would be a hit in a few years when I'm in an old folks home.

RIP Jack Flak

Count me in the ranks of folks who would've sworn he died decades ago. Before today, I will uldve told you I recall it being a brain issue (cancer/aneurysm/stroke) around 1994.
