Title: RIP Horshack
Post by: DaOld Man on August 15, 2012, 11:55:31 am

Anyone besides me can remember Ron Palillo ("Horshack" of "Welcome Back Kotter")?
I had a friend in high school that acted just like the character Horshack.

I dont think Palillo did anything else after Kotter, but he played Horshack very well.

RIP.

I saw that. I didn't realize he was gay (yes, I have bad Gaydar. I didn't know about George Michael until I saw his Behind the Music on VH1).

I think he did "Celebrity Boxing" once.

I was fairly young when Welcome Back Kotter was on, but I do remember it.  The guy that played Epstein died recently too.

Hell yeah I remember the Shack. I was young, too, but I liked it. I'm not surprised he was gay. His character was a little pissy, so obviously it came natural.
