Trek guest actors in maybe surprising roles
- Thread starter Maurice
- Start date
Elinor Donahue as a young woman, with Paul Fix as her father, who falls in love with murdering polygamist Whit Bissell on the current episode of 'Have Gun Will Travel'.
he was funny in "My World, and Welcome to it" ...Too bad it only lasted 2 seasons.
His last role, i believe was as a Police Lieutenant on "Kung Fu: The Legend Continues". Too bad that spin-off wasn't picked up.
...Also as a famous Bajoran musician in an episode of DS9
Ron Soble on the first season Rawhide ep "Incident West of Lano."
That isn't a young Sean Connery on the left is it?
It sure as hell looks like him you know!JB
Heh. Nope.That isn't a young Sean Connery on the left is it?

Looks very much like him! But upon checking his resume, I see it's not!

Continuing to watch '62-'64 series THE ELEVENTH HOUR. Episode 8 (Hooray Hooray, The Circus is Coming to Town) was written by Gene L. Coon and directed by Lawrence Dobkin ("Charlie X"). One of the guest stars is Vic Perrin (Tharn in "Mirror, Mirror").
This episode also has a Who's Who of guest stars from THE TWILIGHT ZONE: Burgess Meredith, Edward Andrews, Henry Jones, Vaughn Taylor.
While the show itself isn't the most exciting thing I've ever seen, the guest stars sure are keeping it interesting.

You're going to hate me for this, but:
This reads like Paul Fix falls in love with murdering polygamist Whit Bissell. I know what you meant, but my mind goes to strange places sometimes.

55 years ago tonight on 12 O'Clock High ("Appointment at Liege"):
Watching 'Have Gun Will Travel' on MeTV this morning.
Paladin is transporting a princess across the desert and there in the background is the Vasquez Rock formation.
It's a different angle then what we normally see on television, but it's there just the same.

Hardly a week goes by that I don't see Vasquez Rocks pop up two or three times on Me and H&I's westerns.
ETA: Like right now on Gunsmoke, for example.

Nimoy may have gotten in over his head with this role...
From Mission: Impossible, "Submarine" (Nov. 16, 1969). This episode also guest-starred Lee Meriwether as a recurring Season 4 guest agent.

Nimoy doesn't really fit the guest-actors theme of the thread, though, since he was a regular in both Trek and M:I. And Meriwether was the closest thing M:I season 4 had to a female regular.
Also, you missed William Wintersole (Abrom from "Patterns of Force") in the third of his four M:I guest roles. And Vic Perrin in a voice-dubbing role, and possibly bit player Al Roberts (whom IMDb lists as an Eminian council member, though Memory Alpha doesn't concur).
Anyway, isn't "Submarine" a great episode? It's my all-time favorite M:I installment.
