I was talking about Barbara Anderson. The formless dress and harsh late-afternoon sun don't do her any favors. And if she was supposed to younger on Mannix than on Star Trek, it can't have been much younger. Lenore was supposed to be nineteen or twenty, an old man's last saving grace.
Trek guest actors in maybe surprising roles
- Thread starter Maurice
- Start date
^Lenore was explicitly nineteen years old. Anderson was twenty at the time.
His gloriously camp and over-the-top performance as Caligula in The Robe always stands out foremost in my mind.
Yes he was good in that role and I didn't realize that he reprised that role the following year in a movie I have not seen - "Demetrius and the Gladiators." I had no idea "The Robe" had a sequel. Considering Caligula's insane behavior as most believe, Robinson played it well.
Currently watching the 'Celebrity Bowling' marathon on Decades TV and it's a Klingon two-fer. Former Klingon Michael Ansara is paired with future Klingon John Schuck.
^The Shat was on this morning:

As I was saying on another forum, there's a joke about the Enterprise's bowling alley in there somewhere.

Missed that one. Must have been the time zones.
You should see the slacks that they were giving away as prizes...!
The late Malachai Throne was one of the Trek alumni who appeared on Babylon 5. He played a Centauri, Prime Minister Malachi.
Not sure if this counts, but after playing Commodore Mendez in one of the finest Trek episodes, he reappeared as a Vulcan, "Pardek".

^Pardek was a Romulan senator in "Unification." As it happens, both of Throne's Trek appearances (not counting his voice work in the unaired pilot) were in 2-parters.
Ooppssss!
If you look around long enough, you can see quite a few episodes of this show. On YT, there's the first 10-12 minutes or so of an episode featuring the four oldest Brady Bunch 'kids', and its pretty obvious that all four of then were out in back of the studio prior to taping, 'experimenting' (as Barry Williams put it) with substances. And also it doesn't hurt that both Marcia and Jan are at the peak of their early 70's SoCal teeny cuteness. (Marcia's 18 by this point!)
Nice shirt!
I remember when shirts like that were THE fashions to wear! That was also a great time to be a Star Trek fan.
Shore Leave's Perry Lopez had a notable part in 1974's Chinatown as Lt. Escobar (He also returned for the sequel The Two Jakes in 1990):
Also, many TOS guest stars also appeared on The Monkees. Arlene Martel appeared as a foreign spy in The Spy Who Came in from the Cool, an early first season episode:
In disguise as part of the folksinging duo "Honey and the Bear":
She returned in the second season's The Monstrous Monkee Mash as the daughter of a vampire:
Arnold Moss appeared in the second season's Everywhere a Sheik, Sheik as an evil sheik (the half-goatee was a sight gag for his character):
The Cage transporter chief Clegg Hoyt appeared as a guard in The Prince and the Pauper:
And Catspaw's Theo Marcuse was a villain attempting to seize power away from a princess in Royal Flush:

Some more TOS/Monkees guest actors:
I Was a Teenage Monster offers a TOS twofer, John Hoyt as a Dr. Frankenstein-like Mad Scientist and Richard Kiel as his monster:
The boys then make Kiel over into a hip folksinger type:
Mudd's Women miner Gene Dynarski appears in yellowface as a Chinese henchman in Monkee Chow Mein:
Dynarski and A Piece of the Action's Vic Tayback teamed up as Gypsy henchmen in Son of a Gypsy:
Tayback had previously been featured as a bad guy in Your Friendly Neighborhood Kidnappers:
And later returned in the second season's Art for Monkees' Sake, again as a bad guy:
More to come. Sorry for the multiple posts. I'm trying to keep them from getting too image heavy.
