I just found out Brixton Karnes died over a year ago. He was Kyle Stewart on TKR. Did anybody know about this? I was shocked to find out about this.

I didn't know about his passing.The last I've ever seen of him was this Burger King Iron Man movie commercial.

I wonder if any of the TKR cast attended the funeral or if any of the crew are still close until this day.

Rest in peace Brixton Karnes.

I'd heard about it. There's a memorial page for him put up by one of his friends. I have no idea how he died, though.

Wow, I had no idea about that. I actually really liked TKR in some ways, it was nothing if not purely 'fun'. The show definitely could have been improved in a lot of ways (not the least of which is continuity) but I at least really enjoyed the actors on it. Brixton played the role of a leader pretty well and I am definitely saddened to hear about his passing. I don't remember anyone in the KR community mentioning this last year, so I'm wondering why no one seemed to know until just now. Does anyone know why he died?
