Roberts is best known for playing Dex in Saban's "Masked Rider" but was mostly low-profile after the end of the show.

As a result most people were not aware of his passing in 2022...

RIP TJ Roberts.

Masked Rider might not be popular per se, but it's still an important part of tokusatsu history.

Wow. As stated it may not be recent, having gone unknown to us right until now, but just finding out does feel the same regardless!

Masked Rider was of course not in the same league as Power Rangers was but I loved it just the same, as it turned out it was short and sweet but I do wonder what else could have been done with it and where it could have gone.

Will always remember him as Dex, and he bore a real similarity to a close friend of mine at the time growing up so was always significant for that reason too.
With Robert Axelrod, Jason David Frank and now finding out about TJ Roberts, great chunks of key parts of my childhood are being lost.

Rest in peace.

What a shame to hear. I always wanted to meet him and asked him about the show. I did like his performance in Milk (2008). That was a fun, noteworthy role.
