Damn this cuts deep. I loved him as Detective Frank Pembleton on Homicide: Life on the Street. He was also great on Brooklyn Nine-Nine. RIP

Damn, lost two of my favorite police detectives between him and Lance Reddick this year. 

Sonofa.  That dude was was great in everything he was in.  A total scene stealer.  Drama or comedy, he could do it all. 

I saw him first in Glory.  In a a movie with great actors his performance was remarkable.

Thanks for the memories.

 

Loved him since Homicide: Life on the Streets. Really liked him in Men of a Certain Age. Only ran for a couple seasons, but he was great. RIP

At least we still have delroy lindo and Wendell pierce to play black cops.

Howard: Hey Frank, do you got a minute?

Pembleton: You tell me. Do I? I got to get back down to Processing. We're booking Ronny Sayers.

Howard: Yeah well I got to bounce this off of somebody because it's driving me crazy. I got this dead guy down at Fell's Point. None of the interviews square up except for one, the next door neighbor.

Pembleton: You drink a lot of coffee? 

Howard: Yeah I drink it, what's so hot?

Pembleton: Well, I must knock back about 3 or 4 pots of this stuff a day.

Howard: Yeah...well, I am suspicious of this neighbor, see.

Pembleton: Well, logic tells you that, right?

Howard: Yeah but I'm suspicious of my suspicions. Could it be this easy?

Pembleton: You know, every day I get out of bed and drag myself to the next cup of coffee. I take a sip and the caffeine kicks in. I can focus my eyes again. My brain starts to order the day. I'm up, I'm alive. I'm ready to rock.

Howard: So you would not suspect the next door neighbor?

Pembleon: But the time is coming when I wake up and decide that I'm not going to get out of bed. I'm not getting up for coffee, or food or sex. If it comes to me, fine. If it won't, fine. No more expectations. The longer I live, the less I know. I should know more. I should know the coffee's killing me. You're suspicious of your suspicions?

Howard: Yeah

Pembleton: I'm jealous. I'm so jealous, Kay. You still have the heart to have doubts. Me? I'm going to lock up a 14-year-old kid for what could be the rest of his natural life. I got to do this. This is my job. This is the deal. This is the law. This is my day. I have no doubts or suspicions about it. Heart has nothing to do with it any more. It's all in the caffeine.

61 is too damn young. Gonna be missed. He had real range. It's not everyone that can pull off drama and comedy. 

This sucks. 

Captain Ray Holt. RIP, that sucks.

Damnit this hurts. One of my favorite actors. Fuck. RIP. 💜

RIP 

I didn’t watch any of the cop shows so I only know his work in Glory and it was fantastic. 

Man he was SO great in everything he was in. In addition to all his main starring roles such as Homicide: Life on the Street (mdmost and I, in fact, would go back and rewind/rewatch various scenes of his when we lived in Rio Nueces there right off campus in the mid-90s) as well as Brooklyn Nine-Nine, think about how great he was whenever he had even a “tiny” role in a film or show including (without limitation):

-Glory

-The Tuskegee Airmen (really good in this!)

-Primal Fear

-The Mist

RIP

61 is way, Way, WAY too young!

Omg that was him.

 

He elevated everything he was in. Great voice. 

What an unpleasant surprise for a morning. RIP

This was such a great movie.

Damn. Saw this and got depressed. He was so, so good in everything he did. 
 

“Homicide” was one of my absolute favorite shows. RIP AB. 

Like others have posted, the range of his acting greatness was so under-appreciated.  How the same person could play Pembleton (Homicide) and Holt (Brooklyn 99) is beyond me. Adding Glory and other performances even more so. He was not in enough.

For 

Just saw this. Only really know him from 9-9, but he was absolutely perfect in that role. RIP.

I greatly envy the abundance of top line entertainment riches you have awaiting you, if you should so choose. I'd start with Glory. Won't require as much as HLOTS, but his performance stands toe to toe with some all-time greats in peak form.

Like 99% of network shows, this show sucked shit through a straw, but I gave it a few episodes entirely due to this speech which they ran in their promotions.

He was the best part of Brooklyn Nine-Nine, a show full of accomplished comedians and talented writers.

61 is the new 27. Andre, Tony Bourdain, Norm, Rowdy Roddy, etc.

Shit, forgot about him being in GLORY. Yeah, that was a powerful role.

You like pointing out no hitters in the 7th, too?

He was really good in Duets, also.  Best part of the movie.

Shit.  This one hurts.  First saw him in Glory and was so impressed.  Gone too soon.

Men of a certain age was really strong due in large part to him

Agree.  Didn't know anyone watched that show but me.  Men of a certain age I guess.  

Man, he had an incredible voice.  I would've loved to have heard him in some Shakespearean roles.  Apparently he did a lot of Shakespeare in the Park.
