RIP. Wonderful actor. Thought he was great in the West Wing - one of the best guest stars the show had.

Not sure if there's such a thing as an obscure Dickens novel but Nicholas Nickleby certainly isn't it.

I am sad to hear about his passing I just watched Survivor (the film wasnt that good but Reese was great). I will always remember him as the Sheriff of Nottingham in Robin Hood: Men in Tights. R.I.P

RIP Mr. Reesdamn, this is a horrible week. We started with the loss of Jerry Weintraub; we just had Moar Sharif die, and now Roger Rees.
We're losing good ones, why couldn't it be the bad ones?

So many memorable roles. For me, it has to be Lord John Marbury in The West Wing.

You can't palm off a second-rater on me. You gotta remember I was in the pink!

RIP
The Rebecca and Robin story arc on Cheers is one of my top TV moments. He also did a small guest spot on The Middle which ranks up there for me. I should probably seek out some of his "serious" work.
Here's a nice radio interview he did not too long ago in Chicago:

Again, RIP.

RIP. I know folks loved him in so many roles, but I really remember him from Men in Tights.
Made me laugh the whole time, just really delved into the role. So underrated. Definitely had a great, ranged career. Many actors are probably jealous of his career, but to see him pass on so soon is too sad.
My condolences to his family and friends.

It won't be the same watching Robin Hood knowing you are no longer with us.

Warms my heart to see so many people saying nice things here. I never met the man but I can say I always thought him to be a fantastic actor from the first production I saw him in which was as Nicholas Nickleby. I hope they rebroadcast that soon as it is an epic production not just due to the quality but the duration of the performance.
Condolences and best wishes to his family and friends.

I'll always remember him as Murphy in 'Sudden Manhattan' (1996). Rest in peace, good sir.
