      Murder, She Wrote had tons of DS9 and VOY cast throughout its 12 season run: Seven of Nine, Janeway, Chakotay, Tom Paris, Garak, Kira, Odo, Damar, and of course Q as you mentioned, all showed up at one point or another. And that’s just off the top of my head. Some of them were on more than once, playing entirely different characters.

      In a recurring role as Dennis Stanton’s secretary: Data’s daughter, Lal.

      I’ve been watching a lot of the Murder, She Wrote Roku channel lately. Like, a lot.

      Edit: Keiko! I had to come back and add Keiko.

        Kate Mulgrew played “Mrs. Colombo” in a spinoff the Colombo team didn’t like. She was way too young and has an 8 year old child. She would have been pregnant at 15-16. It was nuts and was cancelled.

      Murder She Wrote is awesome. It’s a lot of fun seeing familiar faces on shows like that. Especially if it is before they hit it big.

    Aktually, it’s never Jeffery Combs.

    It’s often Jeffrey Combs, however.

      “Brunt! FCC!”

      Now I’m imagining some kind of weird cross between Brunt and Ajit Pai and my entire day is ruined. Thanks for that! 😡

      You mean Tony Todd? He’s much more famous for being Candyman. Also, he played older Jake Sisko.

      Also a Hirogen in Voyager, Smallville, SG-1, Chuck, you’ve seen him a lot probably regardless of what you usually watch.

      He’s also the voice of Venom in the most recent Spider-Man game

    The internet has ruined this for me. If I can’t place someone and can’t look it up I get so frustrated.

    Ensign Ro was in that one episode before being Ro.

    I could have looked her up, but my phone was more than an arm’s width away, so I gave up easily.

      And Robert Duncan McNeill was not-Tom Paris before he was Tom Paris.

      Or was he Nicholas Locarno before later being not-Nicholas Locarno
