Charlie Robinson, R.I.P.

Actor Charlie Robinson (a.k.a. Charles Robinson), best known for playing Mac on Night Court in 8 of its 9 seasons on NBC, passed away of cardiac arrest with multisystem organ failures due to septic shock and metastatic adenocarcinoma. He was 75.

While Robinson spent most of his career onstage, he also had numerous TV credits in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Love & War, The John Larroquette Show, Ink, Malcolm & Eddie, Touched by an Angel, Home Improvement, House, How I Met Your Mother as well as 30 Rock which featured a partial Night Court reunion. 

Of course, Night Court is being rebooted. I don't generally care for reboots but will give that one a chance. Although it will be a shame that Mac won't make an appearance in Judge Stone's chambers one last time. 

Here is Robinson giving a brief interview in 2009 about his times on Night Court. R.I.P.
