Sightings of Trek Alumni on TV shows!

[Peach Wookiee]

Hi, everyone! Since we're all stuck in quarantine, I imagine that, like me, you've probably been watching some older TV shows. In my watching, I've noticed the appearance of Trek alums in these shows. While watching episodes of In the Heat of the Night, I've seen Nana Visitor (with blonde hair, no less) and Iman (Martia the shapeshifter).

So who have you seen on older shows?

Andrew Robinson showed up in an episode of Moonlighting I was watching the other day.

That said, most of my recent Trekspotting has been via movies, not TV. The Trek presence is genre film is plentiful.

Kate Mulgrew and Scott Bakula were also on SVU.

Andrew Robinson was on the original L&O (the 'mothership').

There's a long-running thread on this topic in the TOS forum:
https://www.trekbbs.com/threads/trek-guest-actors-in-maybe-surprising-roles.205921/

That's for TOS actors and guest starts only, tho. Maybe a thread for the rest of the shows is overdue.

I was not aware of that, Forbin! Apologies if I inadvertently stepped on someone! But yeah, this is for all the generations! I can add heard but not seen to the list... Wil Wheaton was Martin in "The Secret of NIMH."
