He was 80 years old. The House of Cards and Treme actor's family announced his death in an obituary, which revealed he died on July 21 in New York City from arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Ziskie is survived by his brother David and his wife Cynthia, along with his nephews Jesse, Brett and Austin and their six children, who say they 'will miss him deeply.' 'Dan was a man of remarkable talent and a keen observer of life,' the obituary reads. 'He was as vibrant and multifaceted as the characters he portrayed on stage and screen.' Born in Detroit in 1944, Ziskie was an athlete throughout college and went on to be a crewman on a Great Lakes freighter before moving into acting. According to his obituary, Ziskie's 'love for performance led him to the Second City of Chicago,' alongside major names such as John Belushi, Brian Doyle-Murray and Joe Flaherty. His success in Chicago led Ziskie to work on Broadway productions in New York, where he was an understudy in Morning's at Seven in 1980. In 1985, he acted with Judd Hirsch in the play I'm Not Rappaport. His other Broadway credits include After the Fall and I'm Not Ready. Ziskie was best known for his recurring role as Vice President Jim Mathews on Netflix's from 2013-2017 and C.J. Liquori on the final three seasons of HBO's from 2011-2013. He also appeared in Chappelle's Show, CBS' Person of Interest, NBC's The Blacklist and Fox's 24, as well as films Zebrahead (1992) and Adventures in Babysitting (1987), among others. Some of his many episodic cameos were in Remington Steele, St. Elsewhere, The Equalizer, Newhart and Murphy Brown.

His obituary describes it as 'a testament to his artistic vision and continues to be cherished by readers and photography enthusiasts alike.' In his free time, Ziskie enjoyed traveling and exploring 'complex topics such as the nature of the cosmos and quantum physics.' 'Dan's life was not only marked by his creative achievements but also by the bonds he shared with his family,' his loved ones wrote, adding: 'Dan's legacy extends beyond his family, as his colleagues and friends will remember him as a creative, thoughtful, and interesting man whose presence enriched their lives.' 'His was a life lived with passion, a life that exemplified the beauty of pursuing one's dreams and the importance of cherishing every moment,' the obituary concluded. 'Dan will be profoundly missed, yet he will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew him, like a cherished character in the timeless narrative of their lives.'

3 great BritBox shows you should watch in August 2025

Although the U.K. film industry is not as large as its American counterpart, you sometimes find that the shows they make over there are at least as good as the average show made in Hollywood. If you're exhausted by American television, then BritBox might be the ideal solution. The streaming service exports everything that the Brits make for American audiences, and as a result, it has plenty of shows you've probably heard of, as well as a few you probably haven't. We've pulled together a list of three more obscure shows that are worth your time and can all be streamed on BritBox now. Recommended Videos We also have guides to the best new movies to stream, the best movies on Netflix, the best movies on Hulu, the best movies on Amazon Prime Video, the best movies on HBO Max, and the best movies on Disney+. House of Cards (1990) The British antecedent to the American series of the same name, House of Cards is very much about the same things in both versions. The four-episode miniseries follows a member of the U.K.'s Conservative Party who manipulates his way into power after being brushed aside. The series has a particularly Machiavellian view of politics, but it is undeniably a thrilling reminder of the way some politicians are always trying to find ways to amass more power. Anchored by a brilliant performance from Ian Richardson, the show was hugely influential for decades after its release. You can watch House of Cards on BritBox. Flowers (2016-2018) Olivia Colman is one of the great actresses of her generation, and Flowers is the type of comedy where she can excel. The series follows the eccentric Flowers family and dives into their family dynamics. It examines which members are suspicious of one another and which seem to be in constant competition. It's the kind of thing that we rarely get in the United States. Flowers seems to argue that all families are pretty messed up, even if most of their problems are relatively mundane when pulled apart. You can watch Flowers on BritBox. Waking the Dead (2000-2011) A long-running detective series in the style of American crime procedurals, Waking the Dead follows a group of detectives who utilize new technologies to solve cases that have gone cold. Like any procedural, Waking the Dead ultimately lives and dies based on the charisma of its central cast. Thankfully, this cast has it in spades. Over the course of nine seasons, we see them solve all sorts of cases. Waking the Dead is comforting precisely because it's conventional and because its quality is so high. You can watch Waking the Dead on BritBox.

Meghan Markle Refuses To Film Netflix Show Inside Her Montecito Home, Instead Returns to $9.5 Million Rental to 'Protect That Safe Haven'

Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. It turns out even Netflix can't get Meghan Markle to open her front door. The Duchess of Sussex may promise an "at home" feel in her lifestyle series "With Love, Meghan", but that sunlit kitchen and cozy dining table on screen? They're inside a $9.5 million rental — not the $14.7 million Montecito, California, estate she shares with Prince Harry, Prince Archie, and Princess Lilibet. In an interview with People magazine, Meghan explained why her Netflix series — which premiered March 4 — was filmed in a nearby rental that mirrors the style of her own home. "I wanted to protect that safe haven," she said. "We're a close-knit family, and I love those moments—putting Lili down for a nap, having lunch together, having sacred time together at the end of the day."

'Scrolling To UBI' — Deloitte's #1 fastest-growing software company allows users to earn money on their phones. With a production crew topping 80 people, opening her actual kitchen wasn't an option. "Our kitchen is where Mama just cooks for the family, and with a crew of 80-plus people, that's a lot of people to have in your house!" Meghan said. She and Prince Harry, who married in 2018, purchased their Santa Barbara County property in 2020 after stepping back from royal duties. In a 2022 interview with The Cut, Meghan shared how a unique palm tree on the grounds caught their attention during the first tour — a symbol, perhaps, of the privacy and peace they were looking for. Trending: This Jeff Bezos-backed startup will allow you to . That sense of privacy explains why the on-screen version of "home" is actually someone else's. According to Meghan's first season was shot at a nearby four-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom property owned by local philanthropists Tom and Sherrie Cipolla. The couple purchased it for $4.7 million in 2017, and it's now valued at about $9.5 million. The location proved such a good fit that she returned to it for season two, rather than move production into her family's actual residence. Netflix's official description promised an "at home"-style experience with the former actress, so some viewers raised eyebrows when they learned the backdrop wasn't her real house. But for Meghan, that boundary seems non-negotiable. The Montecito estate is where Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet play, where family dinners happen without an audience, and where — as she puts it — the day ends in "sacred time together."For fans tuning in, the shift may not matter much. The rental property, with its sunlit kitchen, manicured gardens, and airy interiors, delivers the warm, aspirational vibe the show promises. And for Meghan, keeping her home off-limits preserves something even more valuable than a picture-perfect shot: the sanctuary she says keeps her grounded. As "With Love, Meghan" readies its second season, one thing seems clear — the Duchess is happy to share her California lifestyle, as long as the cameras know where to stop.
