Sometimes it's James Cromwell.

It was actually James Cromwell who triggered this for me! I was watching the DS9 episode from pic 2

Unexploded torpedo disposal with Quark?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago

That’ll do Quark, that’ll do

But how do we know James Cromwell isn't Jeffrey Combs?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

That's just a side effect of early warp testing

Sometimes it's Neelix as a Ferengi

Best part of Murder, She Wrote was seeing all the cameos. Vividly remember Q and Vir Coto popping up haha

Murder, She Wrote had tons of DS9 and VOY cast throughout its 12 season run: Seven of Nine, Janeway, Chakotay, Tom Paris, Garak, Kira, Odo, Damar, and of course Q as you mentioned, all showed up at one point or another. And that's just off the top of my head. Some of them were on more than once, playing entirely different characters.

In a recurring role as Dennis Stanton's secretary: Data's daughter, Lal.

I've been watching a lot of the Murder, She Wrote Roku channel lately. Like, a lot.

Edit: Keiko! I had to come back and add Keiko.

Kate Mulgrew played "Mrs. Colombo" in a spinoff the Colombo team didn't like. She was way too young and has an 8 year old child. She would have been pregnant at 15-16. It was nuts and was cancelled.

Murder She Wrote is awesome. It's a lot of fun seeing familiar faces on shows like that. Especially if it is before they hit it big.

Like George Clooney and Courteney Cox! Who both made appearances.

I've seen Nana Visitor pop up a few times. First Matlock, and later Battlestar Galactica and Grimm.

"Brunt! FCC!"

"Is this pinkskin diplomacy?"

"Oh my, that certainly is toxic, isn't it?"

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

“Brunt! FCC!”

Now I'm imagining some kind of weird cross between Brunt and Ajit Pai and my entire day is ruined. Thanks for that! 😡

He's got a giant mug for beetle snuff.

Aktually, it's never Jeffery Combs.

It's often Jeffrey Combs, however.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

It might be Jeffrey Combs, its hard to be sure.

Kurn took be by surprise since I am such a half life fan. The actor voiced the vortigaunts.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

You mean Tony Todd? He's much more famous for being Candyman. Also, he played older Jake Sisko.

Also a Hirogen in Voyager, Smallville, SG-1, Chuck, you've seen him a lot probably regardless of what you usually watch.

He's also the voice of Venom in the most recent Spider-Man game

Was watching home alone 2 and Ron Canada is a cop.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

To be fair sometimes it's Armin Shimmerman

The internet has ruined this for me. If I can't place someone and can't look it up I get so frustrated.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Ensign Ro was in that one episode before being Ro.

I could have looked her up, but my phone was more than an arm’s width away, so I gave up easily.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

And Robert Duncan McNeill was not-Tom Paris before he was Tom Paris.

Or was he Nicholas Locarno before later being not-Nicholas Locarno

What kind of Reddit-only locked terminal are you using to type on Reddit that you can't also use to search things up?

Sure, but trying to figure it out yourself is half the fun.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

There’s the fun part. I’m so bad I’ll never get it right anyway
