Yeah, I've noticed that too, but he is still in the credits, so he'll probably pop up at some point. I think since he and Loretta Long were the two longest running cast members on the show, they may both feel the need to move on to other things.
Let's not make such suggestions unless we know for sure. There's no need to do that and if you check this out, they're still part of the cast.

Unless of course he was busy or sick and couldn't make it. or the writers couldn't write anything for him. Those are the only major reasons.

But I love Bob. Bob and Roscoe Orman's Gordon. I feel they are the best humans SS ever had. Alan and David are as well.

It could just be he was busy and not able to attend. Though sometimes actors slowly phase out of a show, even though their name is still on the cast list. Just have to wait and see. Hope he pops up. :smile:
