Next up: Good actors who only starred in one TV series

Ninja’ed! And by an equally great mind!

Next up: Good actors who only starred in one TV series

  1. Robin Williams (Mork & Mindy)
  2. Telly Sovalas (Kojak)

Before everyone gathers up to stone me, let me attempt to defend this pick. Sure, Savalas appeared in lots of tv shows over the decades, but I think Kojak is the only one where he was the star, you know, got top billing.

Except Williams also starred in the show The Crazy Ones as an ad exec. I thought this ran for two seasons but it looks like it only got one.

Anyhoo…

Good actors who only starred in one TV series

  1. Robin Williams (Mork & Mindy)
  2. Telly Sovalas (Kojak)
  3. William Petersen (CSI)

IMDB says that he has a recurring role in the show Manhattan, but he’s not the main character.
