Wizard and Time Bandit
David Warner wasn’t the only hunk to emerge from my recent review of Time Bandits. I distinctly remember developing quite the crush on David Rappaport, leader of the rogue time travelers. While this was most likely his most famous role, he also starred in a series called The Wizard, that after looking up on the very in-depth fan site, does tickle some long past memories for me.
I’m also fairly certain (though could find nothing to corroborate) that he starred in an unaired pilot based on the Mongo detective novels by George C. Chesbro.
I was absolutely distraught and dismayed to learn that he killed himself a while back after a long battle with depression.
But what do you think?

i used to love the show wizard.
I absolutely agree!! I had been infatuated with David Warner ever since “Time After Time”, and loved David Rappaport ever since “Time Bandits”. He was very handsome, charismatic, and a fine actor. I was also very sad to learn of his end.
