> Oh, and Lita Alexander. Yup, rowr. Of course, the best bits of trivial are that [Patricia Tallman](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0848191/) also played the possessed witch in **Army of Darkness** , appeared in 3 episodes of ST:NG, 3 episodes of DS9, and 1 episode of Voyager.

I think she was also on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I think she played the villian who pulled a gun in the high school, and shot Oz as he was protecting Willow. It looked like her, at least.

She also appeared uncredited in _Roadhouse_, in which she tried to stab a guy in the hand. (We were recently watching the Rifftrax of _Roadhouse_, which is a truly awful movie, and…hey, it’s Lyta! Oh, she’s gone.) Might have been her first appearance, though I don’t know.

They weren’t covered in logos.
