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

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.

Flemm:

I loved Wildfire. Then again, I like anything with horses in it. I even brought in a transcript (to perform) from the TV show during one of my acting classes when the show first aired, too. I had a lot of fun watching and performing from the series. Definitely recommend checking it out, if you get the chance. You may be surprised by it.

I forgot about Keating in 'Heroes'. I guess I just wanted to forget everything about that awful storyline...

Jennifer Lien
American History X
Seems like another case of an actor I've seen in something that I wasn't even aware of because I didn't know them at the time.

Also, I've just realized I saw her in SLC Punk!, but I had no idea it was her.

I didn't list the actors from STXI the last time.

Zachary Quinto
Heroes
an episode of Six Feet Under
an episode of Joan of Arcadia
an episode of CSI
an episode of Off-Centre (but I saw it on Youtube)

It's kinda pointless to list Winona Ryder, Eric Bana etcc since I didn't list other 'guest stars' in movies...

So, did you get to see Wildfire in the end? What do you think of it, and in particular, of Nana's role?

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

Has NO ONE here ever seen an episode of "The Practice" (second all-time favorite drama series). There were countless Trek actors who appeared in episodes of the show. I don't remember every detail of every appearance, but I do remember seeing (as judges, IIRC) Armin Shimmerman, Rene Auberjonois and Gates McFadden as judges on the show. And of course, Shatner played his "Boston Legal" role ("Denny Crane", lol) on the last six or so eps., as a setup for the show.

Also, Seinfeld had a bunch of Trek actors to show up: obviously, , who guest-starred on an episode of Voyager, but also Shimmerman, Phil Morris (did eps. of both DS9 and Voy), one of the "Ziyal" actors (from DS9), and two of George's bosses at the Yankees organization (the one who played Admiral Paris on Voyager and the one who played "Tuvix").
 
Re: List what Non-Trek movies / TV series you seen Star Trek actors in

Independence Day had quite a few:

Brent Spiner, obviously, but also
Raphael Sbarge (VOY: Michael Jonas)
Randy Oglesby (ENT: Degra)
Erick Avari (TNG, DS9, ENT)
Leland Orser (DS9, VOY, ENT)
Tracey Walter (TNG: Berik, Kayron)
Bill Smitrovich (DS9: Webb, in Past Tense)
Frank Novak (DS9: Businessman in Babel)
Mirron E. Willis (TNG: Klingon, VOY: Retik)
Carlos Lacamara (DS9: Retaya, Carlos)
Tim Kelleher (VOY, ENT)
Jana Marie Hupp (TNG: Ensign Monroe, Ensign Pavlik)
Derek Webster (TNG: Lt. Sanders)
Anthony Crivello (VOY: Adin)
 
Re: List what Non-Trek movies / TV series you seen Star Trek actors in

Marina Sirtis appeared in a rather bad 80s English sitcom by the name of "Up The Elephant and Round the Castle" with "comedian" (and I use the term in its loosest sense!) Jim Davidson & a youthful Anita Dobson (of Eastenders fame). And LeVar Burton guested in the video for Cameo's hit single "Word Up" back in the mid-80s (playing the detective chasing Larry Blackmon). Also noticed Alexander Siddig in the movie "Doomsday" a few months back when it aired on one of the Sky Movies channels (he played the UK Prime Minister of all people....).

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

A lot of Trek actors have been on the Stargate shows. Just out of the main casts:

Marina Sirtis
Rene Auberjonois
Nicole de Boer
Colm Meaney
Armin Shimmerman
Robert Picardo (who eventually joined the main cast of Atlantis)
John Billingsley
Jolene Blalock
Connor Trinneer

And that's not counting all the actors who have had guest roles on the two shows.

Also, something I add for fun facts, the following are from the main casts of Stargate shows who have appeared on Star Trek:

Paul McGillion (Dr. Carson Beckett on Atlantis) was in Trek XI.
Louis Ferreira (Colonel Everett Young on Universe) guest starred in the Voyager episode Once Upon a Time (he was listed as Justin Louis at the time).
 
Re: List what Non-Trek movies / TV series you seen Star Trek actors in

Okay, this one is pretty obscure, but I figured I'd bring it up in this thread. The other day there was a rerun of Little House on the Prairie and I happened to notice the main guest star was Stephen Manley, the guy who played the 17 year old Spock in TSFS.

Also, Jeri Taylor wrote the episode. :vulcan:
