My first introduction to him was as host to a show called In Search Of which was very similar to Unsolved Mysteries (which may also be too old for some people to remember, and also had a host die..)

I was never much of a fan of the original Star Trek series, but I loved the movies for some reason, and I did end up completely adoring TNG so I wholly respect the groundwork he laid both in television and sci-fi. And I too enjoyed a lot of his cameos and voice work

This is pretty terrible news. But like has been said, he lived quite a long and full life. So instead of regretting his passing (which I can't help but do), I shall simply try to be more thankful that we had him, and for such a long time. Rest in peace, Mr Nimoy. You did very well..
