- <p> The rumor of a character's imminent death had sailed around
- for weeks, but that didn't lessen the shock for thirtysomething
- fans when the event occurred. Aficionados anxiously awaited
- last week's show to hear the result of Nancy's cancer
- treatment, but there was a surprise: Michael's best friend Gary
- was killed in a tragic highway pileup. Actor Peter Horton, who
- portrays Gary, didn't object to his death, since it frees him
- to pursue work as a director. "On the head side, it was the
- right thing to happen," he says. "But the heart gets sad for
- all sorts of reasons."
