Because he had potential? Besides, especially if his death was an
accidental
over-use of certain medicines, it's all the more sad.
BTW, I mentioned a series called "Roar". It's one of those many series
from
the late 90's that came out in the wake of the success of "Hercules: The
Legendary Journeys" an its spin-off, "Xena: the Warrior Princess".
Some of the series were less than inspiring, but Roar was one of the ones
that had a ton of potential, and that were actually pretty good in their
own
right.
I know Ledger from that series. Knight's Tale was kind of silly but not
altogether bad, and to be honest I don't think I've even seen most of the
other stuff he was involved in.
