Ricardo Montalban dies at 88
Jan. 14, 2009, 4:08 PM EST
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Ricardo Montalban, the Mexican-born actor who became a star in splashy MGM musicals and later as the wish-fulfilling Mr. Roarke in TV's "Fantasy Island," died Wednesday morning at his home, a city councilman said. He was 88.


The 1st time I remember him was of course from "Fantasy Island" but later from the BEST SEQUEL EVER and set the bar "Star Trek The Wrath Of Khan"

This movie set the level that all sequels are held to.

Go forth sir, you have touched many lives on your time here.

Man, the folks in relation to the original Trek series and films have been kickin' like flies these last few years...

in retrospect, i think Dos Equis should have hired Ricardo Montalban to do a few ads for them as their "most interesting man in the world" (he has a Spanish accent too, which fits perfectly)
