Sorry for being so late this year; things have been crazy lately.
Anyway, here it is: my dedication to those veterans of the STAR TREK
franchise who passed away in 2012.
STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS, the highly-anticipated sequel to 2009's STAR
TREK, warps into theaters on May 17th. Right now, however, it's time to
look back at those previous contributors to the STAR TREK universe who
sadly passed away last year.
As always, the following list is in alphabetical order by last name. If
you notice any mistakes or omissions, please let me know.

Watch Over Me" (as Abbot) and "Spirit Folk" (as Milo). He also provided
ADR voiceover work for the character on Robert Picard in the NEXT
GENERATION episode "Family." He is perhaps best remembered for his role
as Mr. Pitt on SEINFELD and is also known for playing Prof. Crumbs on
Disney Channel's WIZARDS OF WAVERLY PLACE and butler Alfred Pennyworth
on the short-lived action-drama series BIRDS OF PREY. In addition, he
was the voice of Chancellor Palpatine and Darth Sidious in the 2008
animated film STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS and the subsequent TV series of
the same name. His early film work included uncredited roles in VON
RYAN'S EXPRESS, YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN and THEY SHOOT HORSES, DON'T THEY?;

shown in the series and movies will never happen -- no shit. The franchise
has, however, influenced thousands of people to see to it that our future

Good catch. I can understand how I missed him, though. He only worked on
one (very bad) episode, and he didn't even finish that one -- he was fired
during production. He was reportedly racist and acted like kind of an
asshole toward his actors, so Roddenberry shitcanned him and the episode
was finished by Les Landau.
There's not much more to say about Mayberry. He was 86 when he died and, in
addition to TNG, he also directed episodes of such shows as THAT GIRL, THE
BRADY BUNCH, IRONSIDE, THE ROCKFORD FILES, KOJAK, MAGNUM, P.I., THE
EQUALIZER and IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT. That's pretty much all there is to
say.
