Dan O' Herlihy?
Lance Guest?

:frowning: Sorry. Neither Alex nor Grig ever appeared in anything Trek.

Sulu and his first officer (I think it was first officer) on the Excelsior reprised their roles in an episode of Voyager entitled "Flashback".
James Cromwell reprised his role as Zefrem Cochrane in "Star Trek: First Contact" on the first episode of "Enterprise."

 

[Mike Williams]

Marc Alaimo (Dukat) and Wil Wheaton (Wesley Crusher) were both in The Last Starfighter. Incidentally, in non-Star Trek-related news, "The Last Starfighter" was directed was Nick Castle who played "The Shape" in the original "Halloween." Halloween 2 featured a small role by Lance Guest.

I didn't remember Gul Dukat...crud! That qualifies as two , but there is one more.

How about Meg Wylie? She was one of the Talosians (The Cage and The Menagerie).

).

Bingo...she's the one I was looking for. She is credited as "The Keeper". She always reminded me of a real live "granny" from Looney Toons. (RIP)
You're up, Scott.

I was a much older teenager, if not an adult, before I realized that The Keeper was played by a woman. And the way I found out was by watching an old episode of Perry Mason. There was just something so darn familiar about this old lady on the show and then I realized.

I know the episode of Perry Mason.

Okay, here is a neat question. Name one actor in TOS who 'died' three times (in three different roles). I'm guessing someone will come up with someone other than whom I'm thinking of, which is fine. Good luck!

Mark Leonard Died in Balance of Terror, ST:TMP, and an episode of TNG.
Cant forget the security guard named Johnson. He died more times than i can count!

RickER,
My bad. I wanted an actor from TOS who died three times in TOS (not in films or other Trek series).
I guess I should have written:
Name one TOS actor who 'died' three times (in three different roles) in TOS. Sorry for being unclear. Since I was unclear, you may either take a stab at the rewritten question or pick one of your own choosing.

 

[RickER]

OK, let me think about this one. I guess it wasnt the security guy either? LOL

 

[Radioman970]

Yep, I looked up my answers after guessing and saw they were wrong. :frowning: Oh well....

I might be working on a technicality here, but...
John Lormer-
-Killed by the Oracle in "For the World is Hollow and I Touched the Sky"
-Killed by a lawgiver in "Return of the Archons"
-(now for the technicality) Appeared on Talos IV to Cpt. Pike and crew in "The Cage" and "The Menagerie" , but was actually already dead.

Ohhh, thats a good one. Never would of thought of him!

 

[Nelson Au]

I had to ponder this one, I think it might be William Shatner. But I realize the question asks for 3 characters, so my take may be wrong.
Kirk "died" twice; 1. Amok Time when McCoy gave him the triox compound; 2. The Enterprise Incident, Spock gave the faux acting Kirk the Vulcan Death Grip; 3. And then Operation: Annihilate! Samual Kirk dies, played by Shatner.

 

[Radioman970]

^^^
Good one about Shatner playing Kirk's brother Sam too. I'd seen that one for years and didn't know until relatively recently.

Paul,
Bravo!!!!!! That's the one I was thinking of (technicality and all). And yes, I had thought of the 'survivors' on Talos IV--but I figured that one was fair game.
You're up next.
Nelson,
Your answer is quite good as well, esp. if we're counting technicalities (in this case, Sam Kirk). Nice guess.
That being said, can you imagine if there is another one out there that we haven't yet thought of? There might just be another, although I don't know of one at the moment.

 

[RickER]

I know David L Ross died many times as a security guard. I can think of The Omega Glory and Day of the Dove off the top of my head. Eddie Paskey, he died a whole bunch of times as well, as in Obsession, for one.

 

[Paul Padilla]

Whew!
Next.
We all know about Mr. Shatner's famous spoken word albums, but which actor appearing in TOS had a number one hit in the US and UK?
