Tonight when watching Star Trek Generations, I noticed an actor that had
appeared in that movie, and in each of the series of TNG, DS9, and
Voyager. How many actors have accomplished this? I know John de Lancie
appeared in all 3 series but not the films.

UUHM I don't know how many times he actually appeared or in which
shows but Mark Lenard ( best known for his role as Spock's father Sarek)
was in ST: TOS ST: TNG and ST: movies.... so he certainly got around
a bit....

Hello Hondo, on 15-Jul-98 01:28:36, you said,

And if memory serves, Mark Alaimo ("Dukat") appeared on TNG and DS9. I
cannot readily claim to have seen him on VOY, however...

The actor in question is still the only one who has worked with all
four Captains (Majel is a close second in that regard, since she does
the computer voice for Voyager, but she records her lines separately
and isn't on the set with the other actors).
Frakes also was in all 3 series, and the same goes for Armin Shimerman

I don't know who you're referring to, but knowing you I suspect it may
be Tim Russ. You have no idea how much not knowing that for sure
irritates me. :) On the same topic I pose an interesting trivia
question for everyone: Which actors have played the exact same
characters in all incarnations of modern trek? The same actor playing a
different (no matter how similar) character is worth bonus points.
Julianna kind of gave away the easy ones, but there is at least one
more.

Sorry, I didn't mean to irritate you (I assumed it was common
knowledge...), but you are right, it *is* Tim Russ (he plays a
Lieutenant aboard the B-Enterprise in "Generations", and is in the
same scenes as the three Classic actors, therefore he worked with
Kirk; his TNG-role was the terrorist Devor in "Starship Mine", where
he worked exclusively with Picard, and he was in two DS9-episodes, as
a Klingon mercenary in "Invasive Procedure" and as the mirror-Tuvok in
"Through the Looking Glass").

On the same topic I pose an interesting trivia

How about Gwynyth Walsh? She played B'Etor in several episodes of TNG
plus the DS9-episode "Past Prologue" and she played Nimira in
Voyager's "Random Thoughts"...
And then there is Tony Todd who played Kurn on TNG and DS9, plus the
older Jake Sisko in "The Visitor" and the main Hirogen in "Prey"...
Does Bob Picardo count? He was on DS9 as Lewis Zimmerman in "Doctor
Bashir, I Presume", and on TNG (sort of, since it's not the series,
but the movie "First Contact") as EMH (slightly different though,
since he was wearing the modern version of the uniform in that...)

Then there is the slightly different case of Judson Scott, who played
Joachim in the TOS-movie "The Wrath of Khan", a character in the
TNG-episode "Symbiosis" and the ridiculous Romulan in "Message in a
Bottle", no DS9-appearance though, that I'm aware of...

I'm not sure that's all - just all I can think of right now... (lots
of people have been in two series, though...)

<Ouch> I didn't deserve *THAT* :)
Actually, my beer soused brain cells resumed working and I e-mailed you
with my correction.


You're doing pretty good with bonus points, but there remains a person
who played the exact same character in all three series you've yet to
mention. You're right there are far too many people who have been in
two series so they don't count. What I'm looking for is some one who
had a speaking role in all three modern series, and his/her name is
mentioned in all three eps. One is fairly obvious, another obscure.

Tim Russ (Tuvok) has, I believe appeared in all three series, and I think Tony
Todd (Worf's brother, Kurn) has also.

Did not know that! Knew he played Cochrane, but had no idea about the
rest.


There still remains several actors who have portrayed the exact same
character in all three modern incarnations of modern Trek. The next
person would do well to post all the responses as it's possible one got
lost in the ether. Julianna originally named several, so look up her
post and include them as well. Unless I completely missed a post one of
these should be fairly obvious....

Armin has played Quark in all three (reguular on DS9, cameo in TNG-
Birthright and now Insurrection for TNG, and Caretaker.)

He qualifies as one of the obscure ones, however there remains at least
one more who should be obvious, and another obscure one. Incidentally
didn't know Quark was going to be in the movie. Good for Armin.

No, wait he wasn't in Birthright. However, I'm sure we *did* see Morn in
the background there, and he was most certainly in Caretaker.

Gul Evek has appeared in all three as well- Pre-emptive Strike, The Maquis
(IIRC) and Caretaker, though I forget the actor's name.

Dammit it's no fun playing with pros. :) His name is Richard Poe and I
managed to stump the panel last year with this same question.
Incidentally, Quark was in one ep of TNG and I don't mean the actor's
other roles either. Armin definitely played Quark in at least one ep, I
thought it was "BIRTHRIGHT". However the most obvious one still stands
undiscovered, unless the answer got lost in the ether or I simply
haven't locked on to the post...

Good for bonus points, and of course you are correct. However I've
either missed a post or everyone has missed the obvious one...

Armin Shimmermin has played Quark in all three series : in TNG he helps
Riker find Lursa and B'etor, He is a regular on DS9, and He was in the pilot
of Voyager, trying to sell some crap to Kim.

Yes of course that's the answer I was looking for, until I re-read the
original poster's message. Incidentally there is at least one more
actor that played different roles that was in all three series. Anyone
care to venture a guess?


P.S. you have to have damn sharp eyes to catch one appearance of this
actor, or remember my post's on this newsgroup. He's only on the screen
for a second in his appearance in one incarnation.

Right now, I would have to guess that it's either Aron Eisenberg or
Ethan Phillips.

It has to be Riker. TNG of course, as Thomas Riker in DS9's "Defiant",
and in that VOY ep with the Q's.

Well, Majel Barret(sp) has been in TOS, TNG and DS9. And her voice
at least has made it to Voyager. Not sure if she ever has appeared
herself on it.

And although he *wasn't* in Birthright, as I first thought, he *was* in
Firstborn! (I knew he'd been in TNG...)

Well, all the obvious ones (Q, Riker, the Federation computer voice) have
already been mentioned, but I thought you said apart from them... And
certainly no more of the regulars qualify (not as the same character
anyway)

Let's see which *characters*, not actors, have appeared in all:

Regulars:

Kirk- TOS, TNG (Generations), DS9 (Trials & Tribbleations)
Spock- TOS, TNG (Unification), DS9 (Tribbles)
Bones- TOS, TNG (Farpoint), DS9 (Tribbles)
Chekov- TOS, TNG (Generations), DS9 (Tribbles)
Scotty- TOS, TNG (Relics, Generations) DS9 (Tribbles)
Sulu- TOS, DS9 (Tribbles), Voyager (Flashback)
Uhura- TOS, DS9 (Tribbles)
Janice Rand- TOS, Voyager (Flashback)
Federation computer voice- TOS, TNG, DS9, Voyager
Picard- TNG, DS9 (Emissary)
Riker- TNG, DS9 (The Defiant, though technically that was a different
Riker), Voyager (Death Wish)
O'Brien- TNG, DS9
Quark- DS9, TNG (Firstborn, Insurrection), Voyager (Caretaker)
Bashir- DS9, TNG (Birthright)
The Doctor (no relation)- Voyager, TNG (First Contact)
Tuvok- Voyager, DS9 (Through The Looking Glass)

Notable guests:

Kor- TOS (Errand Of Mercy), DS9 (Blood Oath, Sword Of Kahless)
Koloth- TOS (Tribbles), DS9 (Blood Oath, Tribbles)
Kang- TOS (Day Of The Dove), DS9 (Blood Oath), Voyager (Flashback)
Gul Evek- TNG (Pre-emptive Strike), DS9 (The Maquis), Voyager (Caretaker)
Q- TNG (several), DS9 (QLess), Voyager (Death Wish, Q And The Grey)
Lursa & B'Etor- TNG (Redemption, Firstborn, Generations), DS9 (Past
Prologue)
Morn- DS9, TNG (Birthright), Voyager (Caretaker)

and probably too many others to name...

well, all i know is that rdm was in tng for a guest spot (nick lacardo or
something...and the plotline was very similar to his past from voyager, which
i found interesting) and tim russ was in "generations" listed as "lieutenant"

well. um, i think i'll go back to lurking now...

I didn't think Sulu was in "Trials & Tribble-ations". Wasn't that why he
got "Flashback"?

I think you are all missing one person: Patricia Tallman.
She was on TNG as Kiros and the romulan impersonator Jera, as well as
being Gates McFadden's stunt double. She was also in Generations as a
weapons officer and a stunt double again. In DS9 she has had several
small roles as well as doubling for Nana Visitor. On VOY she was the red
head in "Favorite Son" who attacked Harry at the end, she has also done
some stunts on VOY.

I haven't seen James Sloyan mentioned. He was a defecting Romulan in TNG;
Dr. Mora in DS9; and some Dr. that had done experiments on Talaxians on
Voy. Don't know if he's been in any movies. He and Tony Todd are my two
favorite guest stars.

Tim Russ (Tuvok) appeared is DS9 as Tuvok in a mirror episode and was in
TNG as a thief during the attempt to steal trilithium from the engines
during the barium? sweep.

I never noticed her in Favorite Son.

It always cracks me up that on B5, Spice Williams (Vixis in ST5), who I
know, is Pat's stunt double, even though Pat is a stuntwoman...

I *believe* Chris is correct. Sulu was never in Trouble with Tribbles
(so he could never be in "Trials & Tribble-ations". I haven't watched
the show in a long time, I could be wrong, but my TOS II Gold Plaque
doesn't list George Takei as someone who appeared in that episode.

I am not reading all 39 follow-up posts to this, so I may have missed it if
someone mentioned this, but although he was NOT in ST Generation, Armin
Shimerman has been in TNG, DS9, and VOY. He plays "Quark" on DS9. He also
will be in the upcoming Star Trek 9 (Insurrection, I believe it's called?)
movie as Quark, as will Max Grodenchik ("Rom" in DS9), but he will not be
playing Rom.

Not to mention he's played Rodek. Yes, Rodek is actually Kurn. But since
there are none of Kurn's memories in Rodek, Rodek is actually a completely
different persona than Kurn.

The guy who played Tosk on DS9 also was in all three series (Scott
MacDonald? I *think* that's his name): he played a Romulan (N'Vek, if
I am not mistaken) in "Face of the Enemy", Tosk and Goran'Agar

in Voyager's Caretaker...

No, it was defiantly Quark. We only see him on the viewscreen on the
bridge. Riker uses the 'chips' he won at Quark's Bar to buy information on
the location of Lursa and B'etor. Can't remember the name of the episode
but it was the one where Worf's son Alexander comes from the future to try
and turn his younger self into a warrior rather than a peacemaker.

Can anyone else remember the name of the episode?

Sorry can't help you there, but the Actor that plays Quark was in the very

If it was Jeri Taylor, he'd probably have ended up taking Spock's role...

He didn't play Tuvok, but a human.

Dorn played Colonel Worf, TNG Worf's grandfather, father of Mogh. He
defended Kirk and McCoy unsuccessfully in STVI.

Armin Shimerman also played Letek, one of the first three Ferengi in
'The Last Outpost', as well as Bractor another Ferengi in 'Peak
Performance' as well as the marriage gift box face in 'Haven' .
All are ST:TNG episodes....

The episode you are thinking off is 'Firstborn' and yes Quark appeared
fleetingly in it... The episode was from the 7th season.
Hope this helps :-)

Hey, someone else has probably mentioned the obvious, but Majel Barret (that is the

the computer in TOS, then she was at the very least in some episodes.

And if memory serves, Merrick Butrick who played David Marcus in ST2/3
also guest-starred in "Symbiosis" as another character.

BTW, it was reported he died not too many years ago. At the time it
was alleged he had AIDs. True?

Hmm... Before my time. All they said was "after a long illness" which at
the time was (and still is sometime) studio-speak for HIV/AIDS, but not
exclusively so.
