also labeled certain things in general, like production" means that I know the
person has something to do with production, but as to what he does, I don't
know (let's have no wisecracks about that pun). How many others can you come

George Takei: Old Hawaii 5-0 episode.
Leonard Nimoy was in a T.J. Hooker episode?!?!? Shit! I wish I hadn't
missed that one.
Last week they had Adrian Zmed on one of those "foul-up" shows with some
bloopers from T.J. Hooker. Marvelous one when he and William Shatner
come roaring up to this house in a police cruiser and Bill was driving.
Well, he jammed on the breaks and the wheels locked and he skidded up
onto the sidewalk and back down, with the rear of the car fishtailing
all over the place. He finally got it under control and managed to stop
around the front of the building. The two of them got out and promptly
fell over laughing.
I guess Jim never did figure out how to drive after "A Piece of the Action."

I also seem to recall a made for TV thing that Shatner did back about
ten years ago, called "The Tenth Level." It was about a psychology
experiment in which the subject was put in front of a control panel
which was connected to a second subject -- the first subject administered
electric shocks of increasing intensity to the second subject depending
on his responses (responses to what I can't recall). I think the tenth
level was the position on the dial that administered a fatal shock. The
panel operator could hear the screams of the "victim" as the experiment
progressed. The hook was that the "victim" was in on the experiment,
and was never shocked at all -- the panel operator was the real subject
of the experiment.

No one that I can remember has mentioned James Doohan starring in
a Saturday morning series about some space troopers saving people
in distress. I do not remember the name of the series. I just
remember that he was the only adult among a bunch of teenagers
assigned to watch over the Galaxy. It was on the same times as
the Saturday morning cartoons.

James Doohan was in a Saturday morning show called, I believe, SPACE ACADEMY.
It was kind of a training ship/station for folks who would graduate into
Space Command. (This show came after a show called JASON OF SPACE COMMAND.

I tried to do a followup on this before and it seemed to get lost. If you get this info twice, my apologies. William Shatner was in a "Kung Fu" episode in which he played a sea captain. He was in a famous "Twilight Zone" episode in which he was the only one who could see a gremlim on the wing of an airplane. He was in the movie "Judgement at Nuremburg". He was in I think two "Outer Limits" episodes, one I can't remember but in the other he had come back from Venus and an alien was trying to take over his body. He kept wanting more heat and so on. He was in a "Man From U.N.C.L.E." episode in which a bad guy was fooled into thinking he was getting the secret of some new nerve gas. James Doohan was in an "Outer Limits" episode which also included Keith Andes (who uttered the line "We must feed Val, he hungers!" in one Star Trek episode) and Skip Homeier who was in two Star Treks, one in which he played a Nazi, and one in which he was leading a band of hippie types to a planet they called Eden, it had music and stuff. Leonard Nimoy was in an "Outer Limits" episode in which he played a reporter covering the trial of a robot. My brother mentioned one time seeing a "Science Fiction Theater episode which had DeForest Kelley. Whew!
stu3@mhuxh.UUCP (Systems Training Dept) (09/21/84)
One really obscure appearance I have not seen yet (though I am new)
is that of William Marshall, who must have been forced at gunpoint
to "star" in a truly awful movie, both from a technical and race
point of view, a black exploitation movie called "Blacula."
He was also a genie in another reaaly bad movie called "Sabu and the
Magic Ring." (It was on TV last weekend in the New York area; if you
want, I can let you know when it comes around again, though all I
know about it is that the first fiteen minutes of it are rotten.)
Oops, sorry about the spelling, I know reaaly should have two L's!

<Another article about double appearances !!!> There is a famous Sci-Fi book called "The People". I can't remember the auther, although for some reason Zenna Henderson's name rings a bell. Anyway, they made a movie out of it and William Shatner was in it. He was either the doctor or the priest. Can anyone confirm this ? -- ==> Ephrayim J.

William Shatner was actually in at least *2* Twilight Zone episodes. Everyone always remembers him in the one with the gremlin on the wing, but there was another which is usually forgotten (not without good reason!) about him and his new bride passing through this small town and becoming addicted to this fortune-telling machine in a little diner.
urban@trwspp2.UUCP (09/24/84)
Arlene Martel (I think), the actress who played Spock's intended
(T'pring) appeared with Robert Culp in the Outer Limits episode,
"Demon with a Glass Hand" (also starring the Bradbury Building).
The made-for-TV movie "The People" was indeed based on Zenna
Henderson's short stories. It was produced by Francis Ford
Coppola with a Carmine Coppola score, and was just about the
first TV that Shatner did after Trek folded. The actual star
of the film was Kim Darby (whom we've already catalogued as
appearing in the "Miri" episode of ST). This is a really good
SF TV-movie that doesn't get played enough. (KABC in LA
occasionally shows it, but gives it the "Charles Manson school
of film editing" treatment). Some UCLA SF fans once
sweet-talked Metromedia Producers Corp into lending us a
BEAUTIFUL 16-mm print for private showing.
You can come up with a virtually infinite list of other
appearances by various Trek performers; even limiting it to the
science-fiction field produces an amazingly long list. Of
course, you could extend to the other people who were involved
in the show. D.C. Fontana (script editor for the first two
seasons of ST) wrote a $6M-Man episode ("Rescue of Athena I");
at the closing, Steve Austin looks up at the sky and says,
"space--it really is the final frontier"). Heh-heh.

<Hey, Karate Kid, let's see you catch THIS bug in your chopsticks!>
Well, as usual, I blew it. I wasn't interested in all the
postings about other appearances, and now I'll probably be
asking something that has already been posted. So, bear
with me, next time I'll tame my `n' finger.
Last night on The Emmy Awards, a women was introduced as the
president of the Actors Guild. I wasn't really paying
attention at first, so I missed her name. But she really
reminded me of someone from Star Trek. I can't remember
what episode and it's driving me nuts.
Is there anyone out there who knows who this person is? I
may be wrong, she may have never been in Star Trek, but I
know I've seen here before, and I just can't place her.
(BTW, I really thought they overdid that award. Granted
David Wolper (sp?) deserved an award for the Olympic
ceremonies, but did he really need five presenters, with
four separate introductions?)
Thanks in advance.

William Shatner also played in "The beast at 20,000 feet" (I think that
is the title, or was it "The terror at ..."). He is a disenchanted
priest on board a 747 that is transporting a shrine. The shrine turns
out to be haunted and takes over the plane.

But she really > reminded me of someone from Star Trek. I can't remember > what episode and it's driving me nuts. Well, I think that her name is Diane (Diana?) Muldaur. I can't remember what Star Trek show she was on but she WAS in a highly forgettable "sci-fi" (well, it was set in the future) movie called Planet Earth. She was a member of a group of "Amazons" (not really, but they didn't like men much) who captured the hero John Saxon (he seems to be the kiss of death for ANY movie). Anyway, what is interesting is that the movie was produced|created by Gene Roddenberry (sp? flame away). I'm sure he wishes he hadn't.

There was a movie with about a 747 transporting a druid shrine that turns
out to be haunted. It is not the "Twilite Zone" one. I saw the original
Twilite Zone show that had Shatner. That one used an OLD plane. Remember
the shot of the Daemon sticking his fingers out to touch the PROPELLERS!
The last I heard 747s don't have propellers. I only saw part of the remake
in the Movie version. It used a jet but I don't think Shatner was in the
movie/remake.
Does anybody remember the exact title of the movie about a 747
transporting a druid shrine to America. I kinda think they got the idea
from that guy that bought london bridge. This movie had lots of people
getting frozen to death, sometimes in mid stride. I think Shatner was in
it. I remember him pumping out some pompus stuff about "if there is a
devil then there must be a god".

o, I saw the same movie which is pretty much as described by the original submitter. (even though the title is not clear - I don't remember it either.) It was a totally forgettable movie, but definitely not a Twi-Zone episode (though I don't doubt that one as described was done.) It was made long after Star Trek was off the air, and was ot an Airport XX since those, while foolish beyond compare, did not have ay supernatural stuff. P.S. please forgive typos. My keyboard sucks.

/* Written 9:37 pm Oct 13, 1984 by jimc@haddock in haddock:net.startrek */ I have a a few questions. The actor who played the 23rd century's answer to Liberace, Trelaine, also appeared as a Klingon in "The Trouble with Tribbles," thus following the same path Diane Muldaur did. What is that actor's name? What other programs or movies, if any, was he in? I also have the same questions in relation to the guy who played Spock's father. He played a Romulan commander in an early episode, and in fact, Spock received some bigoted treatment from a crewman because of the similarity between Vulcan and Romulan physical traits. Who is this actor, too? Everyone gasped when he first appeared on screen in STIII. Jim Campbell INTERACTIVE Systems Corporation Boston Technical Office /* End of text from haddock:net.startrek */
mike@smu.UUCP (11/07/84)
The movie was called "Terror at 37,000 Feet" I think. A lady transports a druid shrine (in pieces for easy shipment) in a 747. All sorts of bad things happen to the people on the plane. It seems that the shrine didn't like travel. Strange gray stuff bubbles up through the floor, a crew member (played by the guy who was the professor on "Gilligan's Island") freezes to death, and William Shatner gets thrown out of the plane. Chuck Connors played the pilot. Mike McNally ...convex!smu!mike
