"Luke Perry, who was best-known for his long-running role on "Beverly Hills, 90210," has died after suffering a stroke, his rep Arnold Robinson told USA TODAY on Monday. He was 52. 

"He was surrounded by his children Jack and Sophie, fiancé Wendy Madison Bauer, ex-wife Minnie Sharp, mother Ann Bennett, step-father Steve Bennett, brother Tom Perry, sister Amy Coder, and other close family and friends," Robinson said in a statement. "The family appreciates the outpouring of support and prayers that have been extended to Luke from around the world, and respectfully request privacy in this time of great mourning.  No further details will be released at this time."

Perry, an Ohio native, was one of the early breakout stars from "90210" thanks to his role as Dylan McKay, a latter-day James Dean type. 

In an attempt to escape typecasting after "90210" ended, Perry sought out roles as different as possible, including playing a preacher in the HBO prison drama "Oz" in episodes from 2001 and 2002.

In 2016, Perry signed onto the comic-based CW series "Riverdale," in which he plays Fred Andrews, a candidate for mayor and father to Archie (K.J. Apa). "

I wanted to snag this thread because I liked his work. He was lowkey but still managed to make his appearances in shows and movies stand out. 

Buffy and family Guy is what I know him from.... Never was in to 90210.

I know he's in Oz too, but I need to reach a mental place where I can sit down and watch that dark ass show.

Oof.... No clue about that one.

I can now see how what I said can be misunderstood.

What's to misunderstand? This is a serious RIP thread, and all you can think about is cutting off Ghostie's dick so it can replace the board shot glass that Sawdy defiled. You are such a shameful young man.
