On yesterday's episode of 'Quincy', Brock Peters played a surgeon accused of botching an operation.
Trek guest actors in maybe surprising roles
- Thread starter Maurice
- Start date
There are two very attractive full color collections of his work. The in-stock Volume One is pricey, though.

I see that Paul Fix plays a kindly doctor on the current episode of 'Land of the Giants'.
I fear I've created a monster.
Jay Robinson is murdered in the teaser of Hawaii Five-O, "Cloth of Gold" (Feb. 8, 1972)--such a waste. Jason Evers gets more screen time.
Robinson may not have been on screen for long, but I haven't seen that episode in decades and still remember what I think may have been his character's last line:
"That's more better, as my native friends say."
He says that, but it wasn't his last line.
Belker: Now, miss Gway -
Hooker: It's pronounced 'Goo'. Spelled G-U-E.
Belker: Fine, First name?
Hooker: Lotta.

That is a great coincidence!!! But if it's not the exact same episode then it's just the jobbing actor scenario again I suppose! And more Shanna is always good for us to see!!!

The character returns in a later episode from his prison cell to help the little people again but sadly is very well forgotten by the second season!

Also, Morgan Woodward turned up in a four-episode arc playing Renko's terminally ill father...
But that one does have a bunch of Trek guests. In addition to Excelsior crewmates James B. Sikking and Miguel Ferrer, you've got Janet McLachlan, Philip Pine, Charles Cooper, and an uncredited Tim Russ!
Not a guest, but a surprise Trek reference: I just watched the episode of The Muppet Show featuring folk singer/activist Joan Baez, and in her 1979 song "Honest Lullaby," written for her son, there's a line where she mentions his toys, and she rhymes "teddy bears and alligators" with "Enterprise communicators."
Joan Baez's other big space thing was that she sang the two original songs in Silent Running, directed by ST:TMP's Douglas Trumbull.
