I had always heard that DeForest Kelly had appeared on a Bonanza episode.
I happened to catch it on TV today.

And boy was he nasty! He was responsible for the deaths of several
Apaches!

He was mostly always a heavy in Westerns and a nasty one. It's an
accomplishment really when an actor you like can create a character so
thoroughly evil that you forget you are cheering for them to get theirs
in the end. Of course what passed for nasty bad guys in the 50s-70s is
pretty tame these days.

He did four episodes, IIRC.
I remember one of them also had John Hoyt ("The Man Trap" - Dr. Boyce)
in it. Always nice when you get a TOS actor twofer on other shows!

He was even in 'Gunfight at the OK Coral'!
On the other side then. ;-)

Like a few other folks like George Takei and Leonard Nimoy, he also did
a Perry Mason guest shot. Odlly it seems the two shows that seem to
have the most Trek actors-- whether big parts or small parts-- were
Perry Mason and Matlock (Jonathan Frakes, Nana Visitor, James Sloyan,
et al).

Good lord! Too much nog, not enough egg.
CORRECTION: John Hoyt ("The Cage" - Dr. Boyce)

They also happened to be on a funny little, short-lived show called
"Star Trek". ;-)

And Columbo.

Spotted Frakes also on Hillstreet Blues once.
And Visitor was on MacGyver. Plus Dark Angel.
