We caught John Fiedler (Mr. Hengist - Jack the Ripper) on The Munsters last night as the postman "Tiger" who ran afowl of a love potion.
Finally got around to watching the episode of 'The Starlost' with Walter Koeing in it as the alien Oro.
I will admit that there's a gem of a good idea in the premise of the series, it's just that the ideas out stretch the budget and the acting (if there ever was a definition of 'dull surprise' Keir Dullea would be it); and that it maybe desperation on the part of the producers that they're introducing an alien only 7 episodes into the series (played by a Star Trek alumni) in order to boost the ratings.

Not necessarily. Logan's Run, the TV adaptation of a movie about escapees from a dystopian post-apocalyptic regime, did its first alien invasion of the season in its second episode.
Anyway, a series' episodes are usually produced at least a couple of months in advance of release date; for instance, the seventh-aired episode of Star Trek, "What Are Little Girls Made Of?," was filmed a month before the show premiered. So it's likely that The Starlost episode 7 was also written and filmed before the series premiered, and thus could not have been affected by ratings.
Katherine Woodville thinks Kolchak is crazy in the Night Stalker episode "Primal Scream."
This is one of those "something ancient and deadly thawed out of arctic ice" stories.
Non-Trek notables were Jamie Farr as an anthropology teacher, Pat Harrington as a sleazy PR guy, and the always wonderful Barbara Rhodes, because when you needed a very tall, beautiful, sexy redhead in a 70s TV show, you called Barbara.

That reminds me - Kolchak the complete series is coming to Blu-ray; remastered from the original negatives. It includes both made for tv movies as well as commentary for all episodes.
Kolchak was the x files before the x files….
Just caught this one and came in to check. And I, too, was taken aback by the late, out-of-the-blue appearance of her character.The DVD episodes of Branded are clearly edited-for-TV versions at 22 minutes, with inexplicable awkward jump-cuts. In "Barbed Wire" a range war is brewing between cattle barons, and a few minutes before the end, Lief Ericson suddenly has a daughter pop into being (dialog makes it clear she was supposed to have been introduced earlier) to interfere. My confusion was put on hold when I saw it was my all-time favorite Trek girl, Sherry Jackson.
Airwolf! The pilot movie. The CIA attack helicopter demo ground looks suspiciously like several alien planets.

Decades was just playing a 1970 Family Affair with Paul Fix as the kids' maternal grandfather.

They must have derived the technology* from Area 51.Airwolf! The pilot movie. The CIA attack helicopter demo ground looks suspiciously like several alien planets.
* Like the infinite number of shapeshifting multipupose missiles that had steady flight characteristics despite not having fins and could always fit in those three little TARDIS tube rocket launchers that popped out of the bottom of the helicopter once the theme song reached its crescendo and Hawk decided to stop toying with his enemies and put the visor on his helmet down and blow them up.
(Just kidding. Loved the show when I was a kid.)
