Johnny Palermo played the young version of Ken Mazzacone in "Disco Inferno".
It's a tad ironic that on a show with so many elderly actors, we've had just as many die ultimely deaths as not. (Tim Chaote from "Look Again" died in a motorcycle accident three weeks short of his 50th birthday, Bruce McGregor from "A Time to Hate" died of skin cancer at 48, and Chaney Kley from "Strange Fruit" died of complications from sleep apnea one month short of 35.)

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – Actor Johnny Palermo, who appeared in more than 30 television shows in his brief career, died June 8 in an early morning car accident in North Hollywood, Calif. He was 27.
His girlfriend, Alessandra Giangrande, who was driving at the time, also was killed, and her brother suffered serious injuries. Palermo and Giangrande were pronounced dead at the scene.
Palermo was a regular on the Nickelodeon series "Just for Kicks" and appeared in three episodes of the CW's "Everybody Hates Chris" as Frank DiPaolo, Chris' overgrown classmate.
Palermo also appeared in "Cold Case," "General Hospital," "CSI: Miami," "Rules of Engagement," "How I Met Your Mother" and "CSI: NY." This fall, the native of Rochester, N.Y., can be seen in the indie film "Pizza With Bullets."
