Trek guest actors in maybe surprising roles

[Forbin]

Matt Helm, "Double Jeopardy" is graced by the ever-dazzling Sherry Jackson as a very naughty girl.



And, would you believe it, Leonard Nimoy's wife Susan as the wife of a poor schlub in over his head!

Amazon Prime has The Monkees! My wife was in love with Davey.
Episode 1 has Theo Marcuse as the evil Archduke of Harmonica, plotting to kill the young princess before she turns 18 and becomes queen.

Hogan's Heroes (S3) for breakfast. "Duel of Honor" graces us with Antoinette Bower as an underground agent, who Hogan asks to pretend to romance Klink as part of a plot.

The Name of the Game S1 E25 (1969) for lunch today. "Breakout to a Fast Buck" had Phillip Pine pop up briefly as a convict making trouble during a prison strike.

Last night's episode of The Virginian had Warren Stevens and Susan Oliver.

A fruitful day - The 2nd to last Matt Helm episode featured Roger Perry as a doctor being blackmailed into throwing an operation. But never mind that, it also featured 24-year-old Lynda Carter in a bikini.
Oh, and Eric Braeden, the original Forbin!

And for dinner, a Monkees ep with Vic Tayback playing a goofy, not-too-bright kidnapper.

I turned on MoviesTV and it's airing Point Break with Lee Marvin and Michael Strong makes an appearance.

Point Blank?

Point Blank?

You're right.
I meant to type Blank.

The many enemy spy looks of Arlene Martel - The Monkees, "The Spy Who Came in From the Cool."

I just saw Emergency S6E14 "Insanity Epidemic" and they have a scene on the backlot location of planet Beta III. You can see about two city blocks, the streetcar tracks, and the "mountain" beyond the end of the street. Same angle as Archons, but the camera was farther back so you could see more buildings:

This lot was also used in Miri and COTEOF, and of course The Andy Griffith Show. But I think Emergency used it as what it really was, meaning the backlot appeared as itself. They don't say so, but the firemen are conducting a drill on this apparently abandoned street, and I wonder if the idea was that Station 51 got permission to practice on an unused studio lot.

Emergency is a great show, btw. I saw it in first run as a kid, and never since, but now that it's on MeTV I'm finding that it really holds up.

I saw De Kelly in two Westerns last night.
One where he played a country doctor and another where he played a henchmen to the villain.

So he really is an old country doctor!

Was just watching Howard Hawks' Red Line 7000, which has George Takei and Marianna Hill in supporting roles. But, the surprise I spotted was Eddie Paskey as an extra, sitting right in front of Hill, in this shot near the movie's finale:

Just saw a clip from "Homeboys in Outer Space" and James Doohan has a cameo playing an expy of Scotty.

According to the comments it was meant to be a recurring role, but Paramount nixed it, feeling it would hurt the Star Trek brand.

No doubt. God, that was a horrible show. And now that you mention it, I vaguely remember his cameo, and I think I felt embarrassed for him.

Watched The War Wagon (1967) for lunch today.
Robert Walker played a young drunk-off-his-butt explosives expert (!).
Velora Nolan (Patterns of Force) played a disgusting old ranch hand's trophy wife who happily ends up with Walker.
Miko Mayama showed up briefly as a saloon girl, um, serving? Kirk Douglas.View attachment 56094View attachment 56095View attachment 56093

With that red background the wall art in the last pic looks like it was lifted from TOS,

Watched Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, S2 E6, guess starring Barbara Bouchet (aka, Kelinda, "By Any Other Name").

 

[Forbin]

Matt Helm yet again - Charles Drake (Commodore Stocker in "The Deadly Years") appeared in the final episode "Die Once, Die Twice," as the concerned father of murder suspect Susan Dey.

A weird episode - Tony Franciosa, the star, was barely in it, with his costar, Laraine Stephens, being the focus. I wonder if it was a backdoor pilot for a show about her character. A strange way to end a series.

Every once in a while ya just have to watch Jason and the Argonauts. And of course, it features the deliciously stunning K'nutu woman, Nancy Kovak as Medea
