RIP Clark Middelton (Glen Carter)

After watching tonight's show, I was shocked to discover that Clark Middelton passed away
last October. I don't know how I missed that. And ironically it was from West Nile Fever,
just like his eccentric character, Glen Carter. He was my second favorite actor on the show (after Spader). I shall miss him.

RIP Clark.

PS I enjoyed the Huey Lewis cameo. Does anyone know if he was one of Clark's favorite musical artists?

Huey Lewis was a friend of a friend to one of the producers and did it as a favor:

I had a feeling his passing would catch many by surprise. It got barely a mention on the social media platforms. The episode was truly wonderful and touching and about as good a send off for a character/actor as i've ever seen.

Yes it was!

She's nowhere near as fascinating as her son!

He was one who could give Reddington hell. And get away with it.

That's what I loved about his character!
