Trek / B5 actor cross-overs

[Sinclair]

Justin Williams-the guy who played Mitchell in And the Sky Full of Stars was Jarvin on Voyager

Mark Rolston-Karl Muller in The Quality of Mercy was Lt.Peirce in TNG's Eye of the Beholder

Carel Struyken-a shop guy in the Zocolo was Mr.Homm in TNG

Paul Winfield-General Franklin was Dathon in TNG and Capt.Terrel in ST:II (can't recall if he was mentioned yet or not)

Christopher Darga-a Narn was Kaybok in DS9's The Way of the Warrior

Robert Foxworth, aka General Hague was Admiral Leyton in DS9 eps Homefront and Paradise Lost. Srephen Lee, Tharg in Believers was in two STNG eps. Marshal Teague who played Ta'lon, and others in B5 was in STVoyager and DS9.

I confess that I looked them up on the IMDb, since I thought they had all been on Trek somewhere. Then I went on Lurkers'. If you go episode by episode in the guide, you will find the major guest stars linked to their IMDb entries, where it is easy to look for Trek roles they may have had. I did that for about ten eps, and I think it may be hard, if not impossible, to find a B5ep that didn't have someone (other than the regulars) who was also in Trek. I never before this thread realized just how much casting overlap there was between the two!

Wow, look, I started a thread in a B5 forum! I haven't done in that in, like, forever. The DVDs certainly do have me thinking about the show again.

I wanted your guys' help in compiling a list of actors who were on both any of the Star Trek shows and Babylon 5. I'm going to list what I remember off the top of my head and y'all can fill in what I'm missing. I'm going to leave out most of the actors' actual names because I can't remember things like that and I don't feel like looking it them all up now on imdb.com. Maybe I will after I get the list.

1. Most obvious one- Walter Koenig as Chekov and Bester.

2. Majel Barrett (sp?) as the nurse on TOS as well as the commader in the pilot, Luaxanna Troi on TNG and DS9, the computer voice on a couple of Trek series, and a Centauri prophetess on B5.

3. The same guy played Wayoon on DS9 and a Psi Corps telepath in season 1 who helped expose the corrupt Earthforce investigator who tried to wrest control of B5 from Sinclair.

4. Pat Tallman, aka Lyta, did stunt work for Trek.

5. The guy who played Elric the technomage was a Klingon (possibly the first Klingon?) on TOS.

6. I think the same actor who was the captain of the other Excalibur-type ship in A Call To Arms was also Warf's brother.

I know there are more, but I'm drawing a blank for now. But I know you folks can come up with the rest.

Didn't the actor who played Elrich the techno mage also play Lwaxana Troi's controlling , sexist husband who wanted to take her baby away because it was a boy? In ds9

Yep.
