Jerry Doyle - Wikipedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Doyle_%28actor%29

In 2000, Doyle unsuccessfully ran for the United States House of Representatives in California's 24th Congressional district (Ventura and Santa Barbara counties, to the northwest of Los Angeles), as a Republican. He later severed his ties with the party, and now declares himself an independent.

Doyle is now a talk radio host syndicated via Talk Radio Network, discussing politics, current events, and popular culture.
Weekdays from 3PM-6PM ET (12PM-3PM PT), Jerry Doyle airs the popular Jerry Doyle Show on the Talk Radio Network, though the show airs at different times in different markets. He differs from other conservative talk show hosts, such as Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh, in that his focus is not exclusively political.

On his radio show he coined the phrase "Grapefruit Mentality", defined as the ability for the public to become interested in an object or person just because the media is paying attention to it. As an example, Doyle explains if there was a segment on the news every night with a television camera pointed at a grapefruit, people will eventually travel great distances just to see the grapefruit that was on TV.

Other examples Doyle uses of Grapefruit Mentality are the images of the Virgin Mary on a grilled cheese and another Virgin Mary sighting under an overpass in Chicago. It can also refer to the public's fascination with celebrity court cases such as Michael Jackson and Robert Blake. Doyle is the ex-husband of actress Andrea Thompson, who played the role of telepath Talia Winters in the first two seasons of Babylon 5.

We envy the stars his magnificent company.

Also, the San Diego ComicCon/Best Buy exclusive mini comic accompanying the Babylon 5: The Lost Tales had this dedication on the back cover:

That is very sad. He had a wife a kid and everything and he died young at 44. I think he is one of the best actors on the show.

**kosh555** · 03-05-2008, 06:26 PM

Yes, and Andreas too, he was a great actor.

Two adorable little boys and his wife is both beautiful and nice. I was privileged to meet them at the Memorial Fundraiser held about a year after he passed away. There are some pics of them here.

Small bit of trivia: The pretty lady that Dr. Franklin dances with in "Epiphanies" is Rick's wife.

How did you get to meet them? What is your job?

I was there as both an attendee of the fundraiser and to help out. One of my main hobbies is flying around to SF conventions. Mrs. Biggs knew of me because I'd helped with some fundraising right after Rick's death.

After Rick died, a fund was set up to benefit his sons and the address was posted in many places. I don't have much money but I've got lots and *lots* of B5 stuff so I decided to do some Ebay auctions and contribute the money from them to the fund. I set up a separate PayPal account to ensure that none of that money got mixed up with mine and suddenly something wonderful started happening.

In addition to generous bids on my auctions, fans from all over started sending me things to auction off. Collectibles, autographed items, rare magazines, you name it. Other fans, often overseas, sent money directly to the PayPal account which was more convenient than getting a US funds money order. One fan who'd purchased an item actually returned it to me to resell along with an entire case of other items. I held a raffle with themed prize packages. A while later, a fan who'd bought a painting from JMS had a very few prints made of it and auctioned them off to benefit the fund for the boys.

All in all, the incredible outpouring of generosity on the part of the B5 fan community raised over $6,000 and possibly close to $7,000.

I don't have any idea how much the fundraiser raised but there were actors from (I think) all of the shows that Rick had spent time on, particularly B5. From B5 was: Bruce Boxleitner, Melissa Gilbert, Pat Tallman, Jeffrey Willerth, Jerry Doyle, Stephen Furst, Marjorie Monoghan, Joshua Cox, Tony Dow and Ed Wasser. Hopefully I'm not forgetting anybody. They all had photos that they were 'selling' but the fund got all of the money. There were also things auctioned off, like one of Bruce's crew jackets, some scripts and lots of other stuff. It was lots of fun and there were many loving tributes to Rick.

Fans are really cool.

That is awsome. Did you get to meat any of the actors?

Nice to see your still doing everything you can for Ricks family Jan. You are a trooper with a big heart to be sure. I see your still referencing the pictures I took at the Memorial as well. Very cool time we had that day to be sure. Keep up the good work!
