Really? Is Dumbledore supposed to be frail? Very old, but the books make me
Think he had more energy than Harris could offer.
Harris was also too humble.

Harry Potter is one example of the importance of casting. To me, Richard Harris

Richard Harris fit that role like Patrick Stewart fits Professor X

I thought both Darrins and both Dumbledores were good.

Fun fact: Ian McKellan was asked to be Dumbledore but Richard Harris didn't like him.

Totally agree. Dumbledore was never the same. The series could have been so much better.

I've not researched this closely, but we're all aware that Richard Harris died

I think Michael Gambon is a terrific actor, and a terrible Dumbledore.
