Subject: Jonathan Brandis 1976-2003

Written By: Kalithja on 11/27/03 at 08:13 p.m.

I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned it yet but, Jonathan Brandis (Neverending Story II, Sidekicks, Seaquest) commited suicide on November 12th.  He was only 27 years old.

When I was little, I never missed an episode of Seaquest (old TV show few people remember).  It was and still is my favorite show even though it was cancelled many years ago.  Brandis was my very first infatuation, the first boy I didn't consider to have 'cooties'.  He will always hold a special place in my heart.

Jonathan, I wish you hadn't left so soon but, I hope you spend eternity in happiness.

I'll never forget you.

The critics thought that this young star would be the next big thing. Unfortunately, they were wrong. :'(
Although he never became a big star, a suicide is always tragic.

I agree with you 100%, Indy.  It is sad that it had to come to this.

:'(    Saw the latest Enquirer..the story is on about the 2nd to last page...
Couldn't believe what he looks ..er..looked like now.. he would've had to tryt for the grown up roles without letting his cuteness help....

What I's like to hear is WHO ARE THESE FRIENDS he hinted to and was it his career or something else that caused it?

live on Jon!
