Trek guest actors in maybe surprising roles

I know she wasn't and if you want to see her dressed even more sexily then check out The Bounty Hunter episode of Starsky and Hutch's first season! A leopard skin bikini and white boots no less! Youch! :luvlove:

Ricardo Montalban as a retired (and murderous) bullfighter in an episode of Columbo.

Regret that I can't provide any screencaps, but a 1970's episode of MARCUS WELBY had Warren Stevens playing an obstetrician and Julie Cobb as a pregnant woman. They appeared in many scenes together. How surprised Rojan must have been to see the woman he thought he reduced to a block of her essential chemicals and then destroyed resurrected.
 
We watched a MASH episode last night that featured a perfectly-cast Logan Ramsey (Bread and Circuses) as a conniving black market kingpin.
 
"What are Little Girls Made Of?" guest stars Michael Strong and Ted Cassidy also appear together in the MANNIX episode "To Kill a Writer".
 
Per the above Logan Ramsey mention - screen grabs:

Crooked-lookin', ain't he?
 
Catching up on my recordings of Me-TV's reruns of The Man From U.N.C.L.E. this week.

The other day I watched the first season's "The Dove Affair," where Ricardo Montalban played an enemy agent of a European country who played cat-and-mouse with Napoleon Solo throughout the episode. Very fun stuff. Montalban was just wonderful in everything he did. Lassie and Lost in Space star June Lockhart also guest-starred.

Today I watched "The Terbuf Affair," which featured both Madlyn Rhue (Marla McGivers from "Space Seed") and Michael Forrest (Apollo from "Who Mourns for Adonias?"). Rhue was an old flame of Napoleon Solo's who was married to the episode's jeopardized innocent, and Forrest played a particularly vicious enemy soldier (He was great!).
 
Just happened to catch the movie "marooned" from 1969. And two of the astronauts' wives were played by Mariette Hartley and Nancy Kovaks. A blonde Nancy Kovaks. Boy did she look good.
 
Finally had some time to watch the episode of The Lieutenant with Nimoy and Majel Barrett - turns out its a real TrekFest, as the director was Marc Daniels, in his only assignment for the show!
 
William Shatner looking pretty fly as an actor who plays a fictional detective in the Columbo episode "Fade in to Murder." :techman:

That's a great episode. One of my all-time favorites from Columbo. Falk and Shatner had a really nice chemistry together. Walter Koenig also had a bit part in that episode as a policeman.
 
It Takes a Thief, S3, "Payoff in the Piazza" guests Rudi Solari on Al's side, and David Opatoshu NOT on Al's side. I wonder if Salish's sideburns are real.

This has surely been noted before, but I was amused to see Michael Ansara playing a villainous henchman in "Abbott & Costello Meet The Mummy" the other night, especially since Ansara's character, "Charlie," ends up dressing up as the Mummy as part of a scheme to rob a hidden Egyptian tomb (only to end up face-to-face with the real Mummy, of course).

So if you ever want to see Ansara impersonating the Mummy . . . here you go. :)
 
I just saw Ansara on the Decades Celebrity Bowling Binge yesterday...with Billy Barty on the opposing team!
 
I've been watching season one of Lou Grant. From 1977:

Phillip Pine, episode 9, "Judge":

Harry Townes, episode 10 "Psych-Out":

^Hm. Makes me wonder why Ed Asner never did Star Trek. He was a pretty busy character actor in the '60s. So was Mason Adams, I think.
