They should have picked Connor Trinneer for the Dallas remake. He'd make an awesome JR.
Sierra also turns up for a few minutes in Papillon, during one of the sequences where Steve McQueen is on the run after having escaped from Devil's Island - he sounds even more ethnic than Chano there, though (at least in the version which isn't somewhat comically Spanish-dubbed, as this one is.)But of course, Entek actually was played by Gregory Sierra, who did indeed play Chano on Barney Miller, and that came through despite the Cardassian makeup and the lack of Hispanic accent. (I have no idea what Sierra sounds like out of character - he had a standard American accent in DS9, but in most of this roles, at least the ones I've seen, he has a strong Hispanic accent, such as the Puerto Rican accent he used on Barney Miller.)
He was also the Iraqi ship captain in Hot Shots! Part Deux. His ship was called the Behn Gazzara.![]()
I remember being delighted to see the guy we always referred to as "Patty Duke's father" appearing as sort of a bad guy in "The Trouble With Tribbles." I believe it was William Schallaert. I know he appeared in all kinds of things for years, but he was predictably kind and paternal in almost every other role I saw him in.
Schallert was an extremely versatile character actor, sometimes ranging far afield from the kind and paternal type he played on The Patty Duke Show (see his guest appearances on The Wild Wild West for just a few examples.) He has also done a huge amount of voice-over work, was SAG president for a few years and spent many years working on stage in between TV roles.He must have had the longest, most various career in the history of television. He popped up everywhere for decades!
The guy that played Maritza was also the President in a Clancy film

No he wasn't. He was the head of the CIA. The Taxman from Popeye was the President.
Schallert... was SAG president for a few years
I remember that, too, but I suspect that's one job Schallert would not have wanted to touch with a ten-foot pole.Schallert... was SAG president for a few years
I was a kid when Ronald Reagan first ran for governor, and remember the campaign ads listing "president of the Screen Actors Guild" as one of his main qualifications. If only William Schallert had run for governor!

- a mafia boss on an episode of Frasier
- a head guy from the Watcher's Council on Buffy
- a small role on Damages in S2 (I think he was Marcia Gay Harden's character's father)
- ?? I'm sure I've seen him somewhere else...
The man who hosts the spirit of Jack the Ripper in "The Wolf In the Fold" was played by John Fiedler, aka the guy with the high voice from 12 Angry Men. And Piglet from Winnie the Pooh. I was very proud of myself for catching that; usually I'm terrible at actor spotting.

Denise Crosby was also on Mad Men.
I got to meet and chat with him at Shore Leave in 2006. He is a lovely, gracious man.I remember being delighted to see the guy we always referred to as "Patty Duke's father" appearing as sort of a bad guy in "The Trouble With Tribbles."

It's Phlox. Billingsley also appeared in an episode of NCIS called "In the Dark."I like it when you see the regulars without makeup in other stuff. I was flicking through the channels one day last week and The Patriot' was on, never noticed that the guy who played Odo played the priest in that.
Also liked seeing 'Quark' and 'Flox' in nip/tuck.

I believe that's Patrick Stewart's voice in those new National rental car commercials.
Yeah, he's a character actor that really gets around. He was a love interest of Daphne on "Frasier" for a number of episodes. He also had a string of appearances on the series "Blind Justice". He was on a two-part episode of Stargate SG-1, too. I haven't seen Warehouse 13... is his performance very similar to what he has done elsehwere? Although I like his characterizations, the ones I've seen seemed all fairly similar to each other; same intonations and mannerisms.Here's one that's so obvious I'm almost embarrassed to point it out: Saul Rubinek, the bad-guy collector in TNG's "The Most Toys" is of course Artie Nielsen on Warehouse 13. I must have seen the promos for that show about 20 times before I finally remembered where I knew the guy who played Artie from.
