Stanley Kamel Dies at 65

Stanley Kamel, best known as Dr. Kroger on USA Network's Monk, died today at 65 from a heart attack. I never watched any of Kamel's performances outside of Monk, which I regret, because he was absolutely terrific in his role as Dr. Kroger. He complimented Tony Shalhoub's Monk so very well; I'll miss his acting dearly.

(and if you haven't ever watched Monk, I wholeheartedly recommend it: he managed to accumulate six seasons worth of great performances.)
