Spotting Star Trek actors in other programs

Also saw Schallert in an episode of The Partridge Family recently. He played an old folk singer whom Shirley wanted to made a comeback.

I think it’s already been mentioned that Leslie “Lt Carolyn Palomas” Parrish was a beauty queen in a Penguin episode of ***Batman ***(first season). She was also in a second-season Mr Freeze episode opposite Eli Wallach as that week’s guest villain.

You wouldn’t think that Wallach needed money that badly.

One of my favorite radio shows is Says You! It’s word and trivia games, and mostly an excuse for the wits on the panel to crack wise. One of their common rounds is “what’s the difference”, where the panelists have to figure out the difference between two similar words. Tonight it had a bit of a twist. The words all started with Q, and were recorded by someone other than the show’s usual host.

At the end they revealed the secret; the recorded voice was John de Lancie.

Hey, Batman was considered a pretty cool gig at the time. And Wallach was so awesome they were lucky to have him.

Theo “Korob” Marcuse as “Archduke Otto of Harmonika” in the pilot episode of The Monkees.

Ed “Col. Fellini” Peck as real estate agent “Charlie Merkle” in a Season 4 episode of I Dream of Jeannie.

[QUOTE= Assault on the Wayne is very much a TV movie, but not too bad of one and it seemed to have similarities to Star Trek.[/QUOTE]

I thought I dreamed this til you noted it and I IMDB’d it. Used to fall asleep with the Late Late Late Show on.

John “Mr Hengist” Fiedler as therapy patient “Mr Peterson” on The Bob Newhart Show.

You helped us all in every way
You got inside our head
And that is why we’d like to say
Peterson’s a twerp.

Arlene “T’Pring” Martel and Billy “Dwarf Ambassador” Curtis as Communist agents on The Monkees.

John “Dr Philip ‘Bones’ Boyce” Hoyt as a mad scientist on The Monkees.

Laurence “Sybok” Luckinbill as Mary’s boyfriend on*** Mary Tyler Moore***.

As noted elsewhere, Bill Quinn, McCoy’s father in Star Trek V, was also Mary’s father “Walter” on MTM.

Also, David Ogden Stiers as the WJM station manager on MTM.

DeForest Kelley and Warren Stephens (the belt thingies that turned people into Styrofoam blocks) in an episode of A Man Called Shenandoah, 1965.

Binge-watching Twilight Zone episode, “A Stop at Willoughby,” and the 1960 conductor is Jason (Archie Bunker’s Place) Wingreen, who played Dr. Linke in the beginning of, “The Empath.”

Bill Quinn makes a lot of appearances on Ironside, primarily in one season as the city coroner. I’ve been identifying him as Mary Richards’s dad. I didn’t realize he was Dr. McCoy’s dad too. Who knew they were siblings?

Best known for playing Maj. Winchester on MASH*, of course, and he just died, alas.

Bill was OLD when he appeared in ST V. If I’m not mistaken, he died for real soon after the movie came out.

Gene Dynarski (miner “Ben Childress” in “Mudd’s Women”) as Red Chinese agent “Toto” in “Monkee Chow Mein.”

Mike “BJ Hunnicutt” Farrell is in this episode too as a CIS (“Central Intelligence Service”) agent.

Nowadays, of course, this episode would be considered incredibly racist, but what the hey! :slight_smile:

Kahn in the Wagon Train episode, *The Jean Lebec Story.

I don’t have the energy to reread the entire thread (stupid stomach virus!), so I don’t know if this has already been mentioned.
We’ve been rewatching Quantum Leap from the beginning, and besides Scott Bakula, there are many actors who were also on various Star Trek incarnations.
