I defy any of you to sit through a film with my 87 year old grandmother, she complains bitterly about loosing her memory but while watching any film will be constantly pointing out that so and so was in another film but he was younger then. First time i scurried home thinking she was just a mental old nutter looked through a couple of dvd's and she was right!

as i'm horrendous at this sort of thing, i shall now sit her through loads of sci-fi and report back.

watch this space....................

lol.

John de Lancie (Q / Simmons) was in "Legend" with Richard Dean Anderson and was also in one episode of "MacGyver".

Alex Zahara (one of the sweetest guys ever) has been NO LESS than 7 characters on SG-1 and has shown up in countless other productions from the Vancouver area...

Have you ever been watching a sci-fi and recognize someone underneath the alien makeup. Or the other way around? Like seeing a Ferengi in Sister Act or Buffy but without the Giant heads? Or maybe someone new arives on the hollywood seen and you remember them from a sci-fi show. I spoted these recently.

Kaylee from Firefly was a Wraith in an episode of StarGate Atlantis.

I heard that Ando from Heroes played a Bartender in an Episode of Firefly. Gonna have to check that one.

I'm pretty sure that Harriet from Sudio 60 on the Sunset Strip was the holographic woman who got mauled by reavers in Serenity.

Dr. Julian from Deep Space 9 fought with Orlando Bloom in Kingdom of Heaven. Took me a while to recognize him with all the scruffy and layers of desert clothes.

Wow, you have good eyes. I never catch those, ever. Or rarely.

It's fun to do when someone reaches a new level of fame then you see re-runs of some other show and find they've been around for a while. I've seen two sitcoms (Still Standing, and Scrubs) with the guy who plays Hiro Nakamura. So on that note, my Girlfriend is a huge Murder She Wrote fan and I've seen Odo, Magor Kira and Janeway. Getting to the point where I have to stop pointing them out so I can let her watch her show Also, if you watch BBC dramas, you'll see most of the imperial officers from star wars.

Scrubs with the guy who plays Hiro Nakamura

HIRO!

and he plays Franklin...the best cameos by far

Brad Dourif has a vast genre presence. The Harkonnen's mentat in David Lynch's Dune, Chucky the killer doll in the Child' Play series.

And one of the wacko genetic engineers in the fourth Alien film.

Just rewatching Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country (whichever number that one is, five?) and the President of the Federation is Red, Eric's Dad on That Seventies Show. I knew he was the bad guy in robocop but I never thought I'd see him in star trek prostetics. I half expected him to threaten to put his foot up the Klingong ambasador's. . .
