Was Kathy Self his wife? I just thought she was his caregiver and assistant. I won't change it because I'm not altogether sure. Mike H 15:32, Jul 27, 2004 (UTC)
He shouldn't be listed as French since he did 99.9% of his career in the states.
- Sorry, he was born and raised in France. He's French. Also, isn't his name "Villechaize"? Then why is it spelled with an s repeatedly? Mike H 02:52, Jan 21, 2005 (UTC)
What a sad ending to such a wonderful person. :-( --Bushido Hacks 12:18, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Inconstistancy
On the Fantasy Island Page it says
"Villechaize quit the series prior to the 1983-1984 season"
While in this article it says
"He was eventually fired, but the show's popularity waned as the show "
Can someone clear it up? Jesus On Wheels 06:53, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
i saw a porno from the 80's, and i swear he was in it!
[edit] Herve Villechaize
Rest in peace. :(
[edit] Start on Fantasy Island?
The article reads as such:
- "His big break was getting cast in The Man with the Golden Gun in 1974, by which time he had become so poor he was living out of his car in Los Angeles.
- Though popular with the public, Villechaize proved a difficult actor on Fantasy Island..."
This article lists no information on how Villachaize learned about the series, was cast, or even his real success with the show. It goes from living out of his car into his decline on Fantasy Island. Can someone please fluff this article up a bit? ClintFord 01:56, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Urmmmmmm
"Villechaize never got over losing his job, and for the remainder of his life practiced an often nightly ritual of drinking in a darkened room while screaming obscenities at an episode of Fantasy Island playing on his television." I suspect this could do with rewriting - it made me laugh but I do wonder if it really has a place here in its current form. (Emperor 15:19, 12 September 2006 (UTC))
[edit] Susan Tyrell
He dated his costar Susan Tyrell on the set of Forbidden Zone, according the the movie's DVD extras, and Tyrell speaks fondly of him, his giant-vegetable gardening (!), and mentions an annecdote where he slept on the stage in the movie's gorilla suit to keep warm.
D'you suppose any of that belongs in this article? --Scix 06:02, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
