No lie, he seems like such a cool dude. If I were in the area, I’d totally go to see him. And while I first knew him as Chekov, I grew to love him as Al Bester on Babylon 5, truly some of his best work!

Bester was so punchable, yet somehow sympathetic. He really nailed the role.

As Chekhov it was like yeah okay I get what they were going for. But as Bester he really stole every episode of B5 he was in. Bravo, Walter. I wish more folks gave B5 a chance. Looking at you, sis 👀

Signature is worth more when you can’t get it anymore.

As if I could ever sell it if I had it. That would be framed and on my wall.

I’m pretty sure it’s just because he’s 86.

I figured it was a hilariously macabre joke, I wish I lived in the area to get his signature.

If he wore a wig like bill he’d look like he hasn’t aged!
