Beverly Hills 91210 Luke Perry dead at 52

I know some of you had his Beverly Hills 91210 poster on your bedroom wall.
After reading this, all I can say is that I am old.

Luke Perry, who shot to fame as a moody teen rebel on the seminal 1990s series Beverly Hills, 90210, died Monday after suffering a massive stroke last week. He was 52.

A rep for the actor confirmed the sad news to Yahoo Entertainment in a statement:

52?

But he totally passed as being in his 20s.

He probably was in his 20?s when that show was in tv.

Not sure what else he did but wasn?t he in a Buffy the vampire slayer movie?

Looks like he did quite a few westerns and was in the Fifth Element with Bruce Willis.

My condolences to his family and friends.

I was in the prime demographic for 90210 and thought it was stupid.

Maybe that's why I turned out the way I did...

In other news, the lead singer of The Prodigy has died.

I wonder if they're going to cremate his remains.

Saw the news when he went into the hospital. My wife's comment was, "But he's so young.". To which I responded, "He's our age." Then I Googled it and he was the same age as me.

I know some that have had strokes and survived. Same for heart attacks. Sometimes it's just your time.

I had just mentioned this weekend that you know you're getting old when the actors you grew up with are dying. I watch films now and it's "that guy is dead now. So is he...and her."

I never watched 90210, but recognized the name. I love The Fifth Element, yet he had a minor role.

Jeremiah when it aired on a subscription network was decent. Even had one of the cosby kids in it.

A lady from The Voice died recently as well, but I hadn't heard of her until I saw the headline. Not even sure if it happened today.

This is one of my favorites. Totally underrated. I think Perry was a bit underrated too.

I dunno ... just how flammable is Molly?

And now that he's dead who's actually going to start the fire?

Sorry, I use to live in Glendale little before the show aired. I even get confused now and see if the name of the show is 90210 or 91210.

That's because most of your references are old people references.

HA!

That's probably the most succinct description of Billy Joel ever, just Maximum Boomer.
