Well, we have all seen Star Trek actors in other non Star Trek related films and television series before. Now is your chance to list them for other fellow Trekkies (like yourself) to see.

So if your interested, please make a list of Trek actors and what Non Trek related films and television series you seen them in.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

~LS.


Side Note:

Oh, and if you need help with getting the name for certain Trek actors, simply use these two sites here...

On BSG:
Michelle Forbes
Nana Visitor
Mark Sheppard, Dean Stockwell, Kate Vernon and Rick Worthy all guest-starred on Trek, but I associate them more with their characters on BSG. And of course, Ron Moore appeared in the last scene and was the series' creator.

On Babylon 5: (I've only watched the first season and some of the second)
Walter Koenig
Dwight Schultz
Jeffrey Combs
Theodore Bikel (who played Worf's adoptive father)

William Shatner
The Brothers Karamazov

He's also credited as being in Invasion of the Body Snatchers (the version with Donald Sutherland), but I don't remember him from it... I saw that movie long, long time ago.

Re: List what Non-Trek movies / TV series you seen Star Trek actors in

^Some of my friends think so. They never play movie trivia games with me.:wah:
 
Re: List what Non-Trek movies / TV series you seen Star Trek actors in

I've seen plenty of Trek actors in other TV shows and movies, but the one that really stands out for me right now is Nana Visitor in about three episodes of pre-DS9 Matlock. She played a different character each time, and usually with a different hair color. Seeing her as a nearly platinum blonde was a bit of a shock and then seeing her again as slightly mousey-looking brunette with glasses...

How would you describe the experience overall?
 
Re: List what Non-Trek movies / TV series you seen Star Trek actors in

Nana Visitor
Wildfire (I actually watched the whole show, mostly for her, she was the best thing about it)

How would you describe the experience overall?
Are you asking because you watched it or because you didn't?

It always had enjoyable elements - ranches and horses (and horse races) were nice to look at, and most of the actors were good or OK, the lead actress was likable, and, of course, it had Nana Visitor :adore: At first it was a nice, watchable family drama, if nothing must-see spectacular... but they just couldn't let go of the forced love triangle between the lead character and the two boys (who kinda looked similar - why does that happen with all those shows with lots of pretty teenage/early 20s characters?), or rather quadrangle, and it got really annoying and tiresome sometime as the show went on, and it turned into a huge love polygon that involved pretty much every under-35 character on the show. :wtf: I think I got fed up around season 3 and tuned out for a while, partly because Nana's character was taking a back seat during that time, watched a little bit on and off then tuned back again to see the ending. It got more interesting every time Nana's character had more to do, both because she was great, and because her storylines were actually decently written. Amazingly, her romantic plots on the show, when they happened, were actually decent, unlike the horrible love polygon in the focus of the show. The non-romantic relationships on the show (the lead and the eponymous horse, the lead and her kinda mentor/mother figure played by Nana, the lead and her mentor/trainer, parents/children relationships...) were also decent.
 
Re: List what Non-Trek movies / TV series you seen Star Trek actors in

Are you asking because you watched it or because you didn't?

Because I didn't. It doesn't really look like the kind of show I would enjoy, but I thought I might check out a few episodes out of curiosity as a fan of Nana Visitor's work on DS9, so I wondered if you thought it was watchable on the whole. Thanks for the summary.

Well, it's certainly worth checking out if you're a Nana fan, as she has a substantial role and it's different from her other roles, she's playing more of an ordinary person rather than the flamboyant characters she usually does - a single mother, recently divorced and coping with financial problems (in big part due to her ex-husband's gambling addiction) and having to decide whether and how to hold on to her family's ranch. As I said, she has more to do in the first 2 seasons, then there isn't much for her to do till the season 3 finale and there's a bit more in season 4. You could check out a couple of episodes... and you can always fast-forward to her scenes. ;)

Yeah, I'll probably do at least that at some point. There are a few clips floating around online, enough to get me intrigued.
