Close. It was actually when he filled in for Christopher Plummer one night in ***Hamlet ***(I think it was), since he was the understudy waiting in the wings. (I forget where this was, other than someplace in Canada.)
Couldn’t remember the lines, so his speeches were full of long pauses. He got rave reviews the next day, and was lauded for bringing a “fresh new interpretation” of Shakespeare to the stage.
Yeah, but doesn’t that toup’ look great? 
She’s also had a recurring role on Ray Donovan, including a couple of episodes this year.
Yeah, that is some serious 70’s hair.
“To be…or not…to be. Whether tis…nobler…in the mind”
“Slings…and arrows of outrageous…fortune…”
Yeah, I can see that.
Of course, we are working 8 to 5 and worry about the car payment, and he pays someone to… count his… money.
of course there’s the “shats” magnum opus “The stranger” he did with roger corman
All he needed to really fit in was a pornstache. I’d pay to see that!
I spotted not too long ago Meg Wyllie, one of the Talosians from The Cage (and The Menagerie), in the 60s TV Batman playing an automaton of some sort.
Two ST alums appeared in the most recent episode of The Orville (a pretty good show, I think, and enjoyable by any Trekker):
I remember seeing Leonard Nimoy in a 1994 Bonanza t.v movie.
In The Corbimite Manuever Ted Cassidy does the voice of the threatening looking mannequin. Of course he later went on to do Lurch on the Addams Family as well as several cameos as an Indian in several films, plus a lot of voice acting.
Also the voice of the Gorn in Arena and Ruk in What Are Little Girls Made Of?.
According to one story I’ve read, Gene Roddenberry got Ted Cassidy to impersonate him (Roddenberry) when a persistent tailor insisted on meeting Roddenberry at his office to try to sell him a suit.
Yes. And Cassidy was fully made up as Ruk at the time. :eek:
Yes! I remember that from Stephen Whitfield’s excellent behind-the-scenes book, The Making of Star Trek. Cassidy was seated at Roddenberry’s desk in full costume and makeup as Ruk (https://i.pinimg.com/originals/28/8c/d3/288cd39ef3943ca1099c1d7f5378c893.jpg). The salesman, after just briefly being taken aback by Cassidy’s appearance, duly proceeded with his sales pitch. Roddenberry was so impressed he bought several suits from the guy.
I just saw the PBS documentary By Sidney Lumet, about the director’s long career. Several future ST actors popped up in the various clips of his work:
John Fiedler, 12 Angry Men

Ian Wolfe, You Are There
Frank Overton, Fail-Safe
Fritz Weaver, also from Fail-Safe
And she was also Maggie Petrocelli (wife of defense lawyer Tony Petrocelli) on Petrocelli from 1974-76 on NBC.
William “Commodore Decker” Windom as good-ol’-boy “Uncle Irwin, Fried Chicken Magnate” on The Partridge Family. :eek: Must have really needed to pay the rent that month! :smack:
“Chicken Magnates never bluff.”
“No, I don’t guess they do.”
“Naw, Ah don’ reckon they do.” 
“Uncle Irwin, your drumstick, please.”
