Some Interesting Sightings for Trek Actors...
- Thread starter Joel_Kirk
- Start date
He was also the first alien assassin in The Last Starfighter (he walks past a Starfighter video game which promptly detects and 'burns away' his disguise).
And was on Quantum Leap awhile back. In the Watts Riots episode. Played a police captain.
He was funny when he was on the 80's Twilight Zone. Played a fairly standard sleazy party guest, who hits on Pam Dawber's character. But he backs down and gets all star struck when he learns she's a secretary (this ep took place in a universe where secretaries are world famous celebrities).
Leland Orser seems to turn up everywhere....
*ID4 (Brent Spiner turned up as Dr. Okum, and Raphael Sbarge was an American officer)
*Pearl Harbor (where Raphael Sbarge, I believe, also turned up as an American officer)
*Alien: Resurrection
Sadly, his characters--Orser's that is--always die in horrible ways....

Except in Se7en, where he was forced to make someone else die in a horrible way...

Yeah, Leland Orser always has characters who are involved in weird situation.
The same with Brad Dourif....(who also was in Alien: Resurrection as a weird scientist)...and as Chucky always searching for Andy....and a troubled Betazoid...
Any one else remember Michael Dorn as a regular on CHiPs?
There's always Andy Robinson as Scorpio. "Do you feel lucky, punk?" Plus, I recently saw him in a 1980s movie, "Shoot to Kill", along with Kirstie Alley.
That's where I first heard of him...
He was also in Child's Play III, I think...
Did you see Wil Wheaton on CSI? Best acting of his career.
I just watched Robin Hood: Men in Tights and Chase Masterson shows up. It was pretty quick and I had to watch the credits to confirm it was her. She plays the "Giggling Court Lady". Patrick Stewart shows up at the end as King Richard.
I watched Cairo Time on TV because Alexander Siddig was mentioned in the show description. I thought this was a pretty good movie. It's worth watching when it shows up on TV or if you see it in the bargain bin.

I used to watch Dominic Keating on Desmond's as a wide boy apprentice hairdresser. It was the British version of the Cosbys, a hairdressers in Peckham. Funny when I watched it, not so much now. Hasn't aged well.
She was also in "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (as one of Buffy's favourite teachers who couldn't remember her name) for about 30 seconds...what a waste of a delightful actress! She was Skinner's wife on "The X-Files", but only made one appearance, which was weird given what a significant character her was.
A lot of the actors from TOS were on Bonanza -- DeForest K was in one playing a doctor!
Also, a lot of the female guest stars were on Bonanza, too.
Of course we can't forget Walter Koenig as Bestor on Babylon 5.
And one of the miners from Mudd's Women was on 2 Seinfeld episodes playing Lloyd Bridges' son!
