🌟 Star Trek, TOS 🌟

Gotcha. And for the most part, on the bad episodes I referred to, nothing happened! Go figure.

Who are they?

One thing I remember noting about TNG was how often Picard seemed to threaten self-destruction of the ship when they got in a jam (or maybe it only seemed like a lot of times?).

I think Kirk only made the threat twice on TOS (but I could be wrong) and then he actually DID it in ST III (the b@lls on that guy!)

Only in one episode, Let That Be Your Last Battlefield, did Kirk and crew enter the required self destruct codes (000 Destruct, 0). If you pay attention you'll notice Kirk and crew used the same codes in both the episode as well as in Star Trek III.

First photo is from one of my all time favorite ST episodes, Bread and Circuses and he was one of the best guest stars on the show. He made a damn good Roman!

Second photo, I don't have a clue, he doesn't even begin to look familiar. Maybe he appeared as an alien in make up?

Third photo is that the evil Nazi dude, Melacon from Patterns of Force? That's another great episode.

You got the first one right, and half of the third one. Yes, he played the Deputy Führer Melakon, and he also played another role in a different episode.

Hey! After staring at his face... was he the bald leader of the hippies - the guy with the weird ears - I can't remember his name right now. "Dr. somebody?"

Dr. Sevrin


The Way to Eden

Who's the middle guy?

Alfred Ryder


Alfred Ryder as Professor Robert Crater

The Man Trap

I never would have guessed that one! (Alfred Ryder looks completely different in those photos.)

He sure does. That's what happens when someone gets the salt sucked out of their face!

Just by coincidence, I happen to know the name of the first guy. It's Logan Ramsey from all the Walking Tall movies and he was in a Clint Eastwood movie, Any Which Way You Can, co-starring with his wife, none other than Anne Ramsey, Mama from Throw Mama From the Train. I'd forgotten he was in Bread and Circuses and it's one of my favorite episodes, too! Oy, the years! Here's Anne, in case anyone's forgotten her.



The third guy is Skip Homeier, who was one of my Dad's favorite actors from Western movies and Gangster flicks. So when that episode came along I knew who he was but my Dad couldn't be bothered because he wasn't into science fiction.

Who are they?

Okay, I recognize all three of them from being on ST, but couldn't tell you the characters or the real names of the first two guys without looking them up.

The first guy was in The Return of the Archons, he was one of the two guys who were old enough so that they didn't have to participate in festival. Was it called festival? Or am I thinking of Logan's Run?

The second guy was in the original Twilight Zone, I believe as a Martian. He looks real familiar but I don't know what episode of ST he was in.

The third guy was the doctor, geez everybody knows Dr. Spock

Yes, it was called "Festival". He was also one of the "survivors" who were supposed to be rescued in the episode "The Cage".


I think this is John Hoyt, who was the doctor in the pilot episode "The Cage".


As McCoy would say, "He's not a doctor, he's a science officer."

OPEN FLOOR.

Landru should have been played by Martin Landau and his name should have been Landau!

Random TOS silliness...

The first man also played the old man in For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky.




Logan's Run was Carousel.
