I haven't done the math, but the mortality rate among Babylon 5 cast members feels somewhat anomalous.

JMS seems to agree:

"It is another loss in a string of losses that I cannot understand. Of the main cast, we have lost Richard Biggs, Michael O'Hare, Andreas Katsulas, Jeff Conaway, and now Jerry Doyle, and I'm goddamned tired of it."

You don't think Bruce Boxleitner keeps looking so youthful and vital just because of clean living, do you?

I'm just saying, Bill Mumy better carry a crucifix and check his closets before going to bed.

JMS just tweeted that Stephen Furst has died as well, with mention of his co-stars who have already gone.
