RIP Benji Gregory
 

Former child actor Benji Gregory who was known for playing Brian Tanner on ALF has passed at 46, found in his car with his dog, circumstances being investigated. Rest well, Benji Gregory.

I only knew his role as R.E. Davis from the Disney movie "Mr. Boogedy." That takes me way back. According to IMDb, he died of heatstroke in Arizona, which is VERY hot right now.

I just read this. That’s awful.

Ya it’s really hot here in AZ. Worse inside of a car without air of course.

I’ve only known him from ALF.

Very sad if it was heatstroke.

In a bank parking lot though? How do you even just stay in the car and not go inside to seek out AC if you aren't feeling well from the heat? Unless the car's AC wasn't working and he made it to the parking lot but not out of the car... Then the poor dog was just screwed.

I'd have wondered if it was on purpose, if it wasn't for the dog. Can't imagine most people would kill their pet as well. :(


There's some memories. Never quite recalled the name of it, but that "boogedy boogedy boo" line has stayed with me forever.

It’s said he had bipolar disorder and depression but received treatment for them. It was gonna be investigated. I hope it wasn’t on purpose.
