How sad.
The first time I saw him was in an episode of the X-Files. To date, his episode is probably the best X-Files episode I've ever seen. I think he even won an Emmy for his guest spot on that episode.
He did. I was interested in that. What was his role? And why was it so good?
It's been years since I've seen it but if I recall correctly, Mulder and Scully sought help from Peter Boyle's character, who was a psychic, to solve a murder case.
See here for more info:
Clyde Bruckman's Final ReposeIt was a very dramatic and although I don't remember much of what happened, I do remember how I felt after watching it - "WOW. That's great acting. Who is this guy?" (not knowing who Peter Boyle was at the time).
Thanks for the recommendation, DC.
