Linda Parks in Transamerica Commercial?

Linda Park had it all over Jolene Blalock, in my opinion.

You need a super-positive attitude to be a professional actor. I don't know what the unemployment rate is, but it must be right up there with philosophers and Betamax repair technicians.

Speaking of former Enterprise actors, Connor Trinneer has been working in TV since then, but mostly one-off bit parts. I remember seeing him in an episode of 24 a few years after Enterprise was cancelled, he only had a few minutes of screen time, and it made me feel kind of bad for him, which is stupid of course. I always thought he would have made a great George W. Bush, he looks and sounds more like W than Josh Brolin, though Brolin is a better actor, but I think Trinneer could have pulled it off.
 
This commercial didn't require a whole lot of acting. Just sitting in a chair and looking reasonably dignified.

Connor Trinneer also had a recurring role that lasted nearly four seasons on Stargate Atlantis as Michael the Wraith. Though, aside from Scott Bakula starring in the new NCIS show, I haven't really heard much else about the Enterprise cast these days.
 
Phlox was on Intelligence.

Which got cancelled.

And Jolene Blalock has a small role in Sex Tape.
 
Words never heard in Hollywood:

"Meryl's got a scheduling conflict. Let's ask Jolene Blalock."
 
IIRC, Linda did a number of shows after Enterprise was cancelled. I always thought that after Scott Bakula, Linda is the former Enterprise actor that got the most post- Enterprise acting jobs.
 
Phlox was on Intelligence.

Which got cancelled.
John Billingsley also had a recurring role on True Blood for a few years, and I've seen him in other guest spots and a couple of movies over the years. Aside from Bakula he seems to be the busiest member of the ENT cast.
