Gregg Henry is one of those fun delightful character actors that we will all miss when gone.
I got to thinking of all the “so and so actor died” and you will know him/her when you see them articles/threads.

Gregg Henry, I believe will be one of those folks and I want to give props now when he’s actually alive. I’ve watched a couple things with him in it recently and I always enjoy him.

Cracks me up as the mayor in “Slither”.

Yeah, he turns up in a lot of stuff. My favorite role of his is Val Resnick in "Payback."

Me too. His role in Payback made me want to kill him myself.

Yeah, he was quite the douchebag. I love the interaction with him and Artie Stegman in the bar:

"You know what, Val, this one's on me. OK?"

"Do you see me reaching for my fucking wallet?"

Always love when he turns up in something I’m watching. Some of my favorites of his.

Brigham Young in Hell On Wheels
The Killing
The Riches, that’s where I really first came to appreciate him

He’s also guested in almost every show of note over the last 15-20 years including our beloved Firefly.

He was hilarious in Slither.

He was in an episode of Firefly too. He actually got to play a good guy for once. Wink

Oh I hate him!


which probably means he's usually doing a good job as an actor.

Probably like most people, when I saw this thread I immediately thought of him in Payback.
