| I saw Luke Perry when he replaced Jarrod Emick as Brad in the last revival of THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW. While not the singer that Emick is, he acquitted himself well in a role that was miles away from BEVERLY HILLS 90210. | |

| Theater-wise, Perry and Alyson Hannigan starred in a stage adaptation of ''When Harry Met Sally'' in London in 2004, too. How sad. I was happy that this ''Beverly Hills'' alumni had found a new generation playing Archie's dad in ''Riverdale.'' |

| My favorite memory of Perry in Rocky Horror. | |

| I saw a very early performance in his run as Brad (certainly his first week, but maybe even his second or third). Right before Frank solicits Brad and Janet's opinion of Rocky, the audience often yells, "Ask Ken and Barbie!" This evening, someone called out, "Ask Dylan and Brenda!" The audience went wild. Several performers onstage started to crack up--but not Perry or the unflappable Tom Hewitt. Instead, without taking his eyes off of his scene partner, Perry extended an arm in the direction of the audience member, flipped him the bird, and continued with the scene. It was the perfect Rocky Horror reaction and he forever endeared himself to everyone in the theater that night. | |

| He had one other stage credit I know of: a West End adaptation of When Harry Met Sally, where he played opposite Alyson Hannigan. By all accounts, he was a mensch. All good thoughts to his loved ones. |
