Other than TOS cast members, are there other shows' cast members who didn't get along?

Kim was from South Carolina and it would have been interesting if he'd had a streak of redneck about him.

 

He could play with the Darlings from The Andy Griffith Show.

I wouldn't be able to see it but I'd imagine it's possible to photoshop Harry Kim with his jug sitting in with the Darlings doing the count-in.

Perhaps he could discuss quail hunting with his daddy, or their mutual interest in holodeck recreations of historic NASCAR races, or childhood summer trips to Myrtle Beach

 

Comedian Henry Cho has some good bits about being an Asian-American from the South.

 

Curiously, there is an allegedly part Sherpa actor in Hollywood.

Tenzing Norgay Trainor is allegedly a grandson of the famous Sherpa mountainer Tenzing Norgay (1914-1986) who climbed to the top of Mount Everest with Sir Edmund HIllary.

If that is correct, presumably at least one member of his family living in Los Angeles should be familiar with Sherpa culture and could serve as an advisor for a show that wanted to have a Sherpa character.

Or has Lindsey Graham for an ancestor...

 

I think that idea is intriguing — Pulaski and the EMH would have made an interesting pairing.

 

Now that would make a great fanfic!

(too bad Pulaski and the EMH aren't part of the same ST franchise; it would make it much easier to search on FFN to see if anyone's already written any stories about them)

 

Scott Bakula seems to have truly been the anti-Shatner. To anyone who has the blu-ray sets, in the actor's discussion feature, basically all of the actors seem to fawn over him and the gracious behavior he showed on set (to the point you can see him getting a little uncomfortable about it).

Not really a case of not getting along, but I saw Garrett Wang at a con talk about, how unlike how Tom and Harry were always hanging out, Garrett (a bachelor) was always inviting Robbie out for a beer or something, but Robbie had a wife and kids and couldn't really go out, so he would end up hanging out more with Robert Beltran, who was also a bachelor.

 

That came across on screen. I always thought Archer was too aw-shucks, nice guy.

 

Also French people with British accents.

 

As an actor, I can attest to this strongly. Years ago, I acted at North Coast Repertory in Solana Beach, California in the late 2000's. One of my co-stars in a production was an actress (I'll call her Beth for now) who I had serious on-stage chemistry with, to the point that in one production a romantic backstory was hinted at by the director. Truth is, Beth and I knocked heads constantly off stage. I wouldn't say we hated each other, but we certainly clashed often and about myriad different things, and we came from completely different worlds. That being said, our last production together was a one act directed by a mutual friend, set in 1920's New York in a film noir style. I played a detective interrogating the young woman Beth was playing, and at one point my character abruptly decided he had enough evidence to arrest Beth's character for murder. It ended in an incredible scene of us shouting at the top of our lungs at the same time, me yelling, "You shot him cold blooded!" and her screaming, "I didn't kill him!" It was intense, and one of my proudest moments on stage. I will always be grateful to Beth for being there so we could both shine. Beth and I keep in touch on social media to this day, although we are better friends now than we were as fellow actors. Life is so strange.

 

I can certainly see what you and Maurice mean.

My stepmother was an actress, but not a very well known one. If I said her name, it is unlikely you would recognize it. But if you wath TV and movies much at all, it is near certain that you've seen her in some production or another.

I have to explain a bit, by the time she and my father got together 12 years ago, I had become almost completely blind so I never was able to see her in person; I just had an extremely vague memory of her in something I had seen long ago.

My stepmother never had a prominent role in a major production but she's had more significant roles in some lesser known films like at least one ten minute short. After I had known her for some years, I found the ten minute short she had starred in on youtube and listened to it. It was really weird listening to her playing a different person. The role was similar to what she is in real life, an old lady widow which she was when she met my Dad but even though I was hearing her familiar voice, it was uncanny how she just sounded like a different person.

And Cirroc and Avery Brooks reportedly had a very close relationship, similar to the father/son dynamic of their characters.

If true, that's too bad. Pulaski was a great character, and a longtime Trek veteran (she appeared in TOS). She deserved better.

 

IIRC Cirroc was friends with Avery Brooks' son and he wanted Cirroc to be cast as Jake because of it.

 

I know that stuff's edited but they always look like they're having so much fun in the TNG gag reels with Frakes/Spiner/Dorn goofing off all the time and you can hear the director or whoever it is off camera getting annoyed. Looked like it would have been so much fun to work there.

tbf who actually does care about Harry?

They can have a dolphin in a big tank on the bridge and the UT can translate the dolphin squeaks.
