My Take

Singer is a beloved fixture of 1980s genre television and film, and The Beastmaster is exactly the kind of sword-and-sorcery cheese that found a second life through endless cable replays. He brought a sincere, square-jawed earnestness to Dar that made the whole goofy enterprise weirdly endearing. But it's his role as Mike Donovan in V that earns him real sci-fi cred; that miniseries was a genuine cultural event, and he anchored its human-resistance heart. He never became an A-lister, yet he carved out a durable niche as a leading man in cult favorites. A pure comfort-watch actor.
