And in I Was A Teenage Frankenstein.
I read about that -- sort of a quickie attempt to copy the success of Werewolf -- but I haven't seen it.
Robert Lansing, Kathie Brown, Gene Lyons and of course Barbara Anderson in Ironside on Cozi TV last night.
Another movie with Rod Steiger (not in a scene together): Cry Terror, 1958.

It's interesting that they cast against type for Nils Barris, going with the gentle father from Patty Duke. In that same episode, the Trader was played by Guy Raymond. David Gerrold says Raymond was doing humorous beer commercials at the time, playing a bartender witnessing crazy events. So putting him behind the bar in "Tribbles" was very much "on the button."
Must get some grabs when I get a chance - yesterday's DVD watching gave me Alfred Ryder in a strange "One Step Beyond" as a guy who plays an ancient Chinese parlor game and mentally transforms into a leopard. And Yvonne Craig's gorgeousness showed up as a doctor in an episode of Bill Bixby's "The Magician."
I was surprised to see Joan Collins aka Edith Keeler in American Horror Story, the current edition. I didn't expect she would be in a horror themed show. Besides, I thought she had retired already. Anyway, it is good to see that she is well and still acting.
She's not exactly a stranger to the horror genre.
I remember seeing her in a 1977 Bert I. Gordon giant-ant movie, Empire of the Ants, with Robert Lansing (it might've been mentioned earlier in this epic thread). I couldn't even finish it, it was so bad. I don't see much else horror on her filmography, though, other than a 1972 Tales from the Crypt film adaptation, one of those horror-anthology movies that used to be common.

She played Peter Cushing's duplicitous wife in Hammer's 1972 psychological horror Fear in The Night! But she gets her just desserts at the end don't worry!
And she was the spurned wife of a man who fell in love with a tree in Tales That Witness Madness in 1973 which was an anthology film not made by Amicus!

Mariette Hartley had a recurring role on season one of 9-1-1 as an elderly woman with Alzheimer's in which she was outstanding.
Tim Russ (VOY's "Tuvok") and Connor Trinneer (ENT's "Trip") have had guest roles on that series.

Saw De Kelley on Steve McQueen's bad side on a Wanted Dead or Alive yesterday morning.
Gene Lyons as Sawyer in The Enemy and as John Corwin in The Pursued, two episodes of The Invaders and both times an alien!

Revisiting Charlie & Mitzi, in Laugh-In Season 2, episode 2, they do a briefer and role-swapped variant of the sketch they did on Sullivan:
