yeah, Stewart and Spiner are the obvious ones (if you need any other proof, go look at their imdb.com filmographies compared to the other cast members)...

i'd add Marc Alaimo (Dukat) and Rene Auberjonois (Odo) to the list...

and maybe Andrew Robinson (Garak)...

Avery Brooks tended to over act.


YOU CAN"T DESTROY TEH IDEAAAAAA

THAT"S ANCIENT KNOWLADGE

9/20/2005 6:58:07 AM

oh yeah, and add Dwight Schultz, because Murdock + Star Trek = Awesomeness

they just had the season finale on spike tv

I nearly cried

Better yet, who have actually had careers besides Trek? Reading Rainbow doesn't count.

Shatner and Stewart (Nimoy too for Documentaries).

More than half of the TNG crew do a lot of voices for a lot of different stuff.
Avery Brooks was in a couple of flics (including the bad-assed American History X).
Armin Shimmermin and Rene Aberdlvfrechword do stuff here and there.
Oh, Marina Sirtis had a small part in Crash.

Other than that, you can find most of the people from TNG, DS9, and Voyager in guest staring roles in TV shows all over the place.

^ Who was she in Crash?

9/20/2005 4:18:49 PM

The Persian guy's wife.

9/20/2005 4:19:24 PM

ohhhhhhhhh yeahhhhhh......

9/20/2005 4:22:35 PM

pryderi: yes, Andreas Katsulas and Peter Jurasik > 98% of Star Trek cast members

as for other careers... i already mention that Barclay was on A-Team... Rene Auberjonis is all over the place, Jonathan Frakes has his own little club where every show he works on somehow gets Michael Dorn and Marina Sirtis involved... and occasionally Levar Burton...

Patrick Stewart is obvious... Brent Spiner is obvious...

go look at the filmographies of some of these actors... they can be pretty impressive...

9/20/2005 11:00:19 PM

thats why...i remember when gargoyles first came out frakes was constantly on tv talking about how awesome it was going to be.

9/21/2005 4:05:21 AM

its becuase certain casting directors are TNG fans -- thats why one trek actors usually means several

The people from TNG have pretty good voices, I think.

Also Gargoyles came out towards the end of TNG so they were in hot demand. And Gargolyes wasn't a bad cartoon at all.

9/21/2005 10:19:41 AM

I loved gargoyles

9/21/2005 9:18:12 PM

colm meaney...last thing i saw him in was....

that convict air plane movie...air con?

9/21/2005 9:22:12 PM

I had a crush on Riker, then on Worf, and one on Deanna Troy at some point...

as far as good acting goes, Brent Spiner, Patrick Stewart, or Captain Janeway

9/21/2005 10:49:51 PM

Captain Janeway

you opinion is forfeit

9/22/2005 1:17:51 AM

Spot

9/22/2005 3:42:32 AM

^^^^Haven't seen it but wasn't he in Layer Cake. He's in a fair few british movies.

Also I saw Bashere playing a Doctor in a play with Kim Catrell...I think that's like five degrees of Trek Separation.

not one vote for any voyager characters eh

the doctor guy from mash was good but I never really watched that show for the characters

the only thing I thought it owned TNG in was episode concepts; I mean they had some really creative stuff

course:oblivion and that episode where that living war memorial reenacts the war in other people's minds are great examples

10/4/2005 3:35:56 AM

the guy who played holographic doctor is pretty good...

not great though, not one of the best... but pretty good
