Favorite non-Trek characters played by Trek series regulars?

[mlbach]

Nimoy as Paris in Mission Impossible.

Brian Thompson as the uber demon in Buffy

Dominic Keating as a watcher/guardian who gets turned into a vampire on Buffy

Colm Meany in The Button War and The Man Who Went Up a Hill...

(James Darren was also in T J Hooker)

I tried to just list ones not previously mentioned. There are so many...

 

[Bad Thoughts]

How about Nimoy as that guy who goes "in search of" various ancient aliens and hidden creatures?

 

[mlbach]

Oh, and Keiko in Joy Luck Club?

Patrick Stewart on the Simpsons as the head of the Masons--or whoever the heck they were.

It probably doesn't count because they were playing themselves, but the NG crew guesting on Family Guy when Stewie kidnaps them all.

 

[Push The Button]

Frakes and Spiner both had memorable appearances on Hill Street Blues.

 

[Tracy Trek]

I don't know if it's been mentioned yet. And I don't really like the show Hell on Wheels, but my family likes it. Colm Meany plays a character in it.

I forgot about Nana Visitor playing a doggie psychologist on Castle

 

[mlbach]

Jason Isaacs as Jackson Brodie in Case Histories

 

[MacLeod]

Has Prof. X been mentioned yet?

Richard Herd (Adm. Paris) was also in TJ Hooker if memory serves.

 

[Jayson1]

Has Prof. X been mentioned yet?

Yep I mentioned him.

Jason

 

[mlbach]

Patrick Stewart in Conspiracy Theory

 

[Six of Twelve]

Breaking the rules to mention a recurring character, but how about Andrew Robinson as the Scorpio Killer in the first Dirty Harry movie?

 

[Energyneer]

Brent spiner. The master of disguise , Out to sea,
Colm Meany . Con Air
Picard . Avery Bullock (American Dad)
Q . As the father of the jessys GF on the breaking bad

I found it mildly funny. A few real knee-kicker moments. But the porn angle was a bit overdone.

 

[Galileo7]

Dwight Schultz as Captain "Howling Mad" Murdock on the A-Team tv series.
Rene Auberjonois in a Night Gallery episode "Camera Obscura" .

 

[Mattadd]

Rene Auberjonois in Fallout: New Vegas.

 

[1001001]

I found it mildly funny. A few real knee-kicker moments. But the porn angle was a bit overdone.

The episode where he plays Spock at a kid's birthday party had me in tears.

 

[Iamnotspock]

Rene Auberjonois played a preacher who joins the militia in "The Patriot", probably the first role he did after leaving DS9

During Season 7, IIRC. I think that's why it's often a body double under the umpire mask in 'Take Me Out to the Holosuite'.

 

[DarrenTR1970]

I can't believe no one has mentioned John Laroquette and Brent Spiner on Night Court.
Nanak Visitor also had a memorable role as a woman suffering from multiple personalities who took Dan Fielding hostage.

 

[Brennyren]

I have improbably fond memories of De Kelley in Night of the Lepus. As always, he presented a questionable script with utter sincerity. (It probably didn't hurt that I had a crush on him when the movie came out.)
