"Actress I Wish Had Appeared on Star Trek TOS" Topic

Which actress, active in the 60s, do you wish had made a guest appearance on the original Star Trek series but did not?

I'll start with…

Paula Prentiss

Barbara Eden

Eartha Kitt
Candice Bergen
Elizabeth Montgomery
Ursula Andress

Bar--er, Jane Fonda

I'll second Eartha Kitt and would like to have seen Hattie Jacques and Rita Webb as aliens

x42

The best looking Avenger, Diana Rigg, late of GOT.

Elke Sommer- Starfleet Inspectorate

Raquel Welch-Khan's smarter sister/clone

Anne Francis-Science Officer

Brigitte Bardot-Picard's Grandmother:Orion Pirate

Honor Blackman-Klingon Officer

Diana Rigg-Yeoman/Redshirt Bodyguard

Jane Fonda-Section 31 agent

Barbara Feldon-Romulan Officer

Carol Burnett-Federation Senator

Sophia Loren-Engineer

Phyllis Diller – Harcourt Fenton Mudd's second wife.

KPinder, that would have been fantastic

I'll happily second Eartha, Phyllis and Ms. Rigg!

Stella Stevens

Barbara Eden
Tina Louise
Dawn Wells
Jane Fonda
Goldie Hawn
Jill St. John
Melody Patterson
Donna Douglas
Audrey Hepburn
Elizabeth Montgomery

Some good choices there boys !

All excellent choices, but KPinder for the win !!

I was thinking more women who couldn't have been
Scarlett Johansson on the console

Carolyn Jones -- Orion slave girl?

Suzanne Pleshette. Faye Dunaway.

Otherwise Old Contemptible hit all my faves.

Barbara Eden. Wowsers.

Anyone who played Catwoman. Eartha Kitt, Julie Newmar, Lee Merriweather… heck, throw in Yvonne Craig as the plucky red shirt ensign that doesn't get eaten by that episodes alien menace

Ann Margret. More than a match for Kirk.

Yvonne Craig was on Star Trek.

Ron

Elvira for Tng, so I guess its Vampira for tos.

Like Yvonne Craig, both Julie Newmar and Lee Merriweather did appear on Star Trek TOS.

Julie Newmar was in "Friday's Child".
Lee Merriweather appeared in "That Which Survives".

I loved Yvonne as Batgirl too !

Susan Hayward,mebbe. Stella Stevens,Connie Stevens,Petula Clark,Hayley Mills,Judy Carne,JoAnne Worley(substituting as the red alert signal)

Marianna Hill was a sort of "poor man's" Stella Stevens.

Agreed: KPinder for the win.

Diane Keaton
Sally Field
Barbara Feldon

Vera Miles as Leonard McCoy's ex-wife. She was still doing movies, but had done an Outer Limits about 2 years prior.

Julie Newmar. Come on!

Anne Francis did appear on Star Trek

Carol Channing,Lesley Gore,The Andrews Sisters(Patty,Maxine and Laverne),Debbie Reynolds…

Forbidden Planet, to be sure, but I doubt Star Trek. Which episode were you thinking?

You're right eto, I checked her movies and TV appearances.
Do you remember the episode, it was kind of a pre-quell before Kirk took over the Enterprise? The Captain's name was Chris Pine. It involved a flashback to a planet that Captain Pine and the crew visited that was inhabited by a race of super intelligent little green guys with big pulsing heads and the ability to make people see and experience what ever they wished. They had one human girl that they rescued from a crash and nursed back to health. I thought Anne Francis was the actress playing the girl

You're thinking of Susan Oliver. She had an extensive career on TV, including more than a few stints in the director's chair.

As a result of a terrifying commercial airline incident she swore off flying altogether. Coaxed back to it by a friend she got a private pilots license and went on to become a quite accomplished aviator.

She holds the record as only the 4th woman to single engine solo across the Atlantic.

Whaddya know?!?

The episode you're thinking of was a mashup of the original pilot "The Cage" framed into a regular Star Trek 2 part episode "The Menagerie." The first was good in its' own right. The combination was superb.

Patty McCormack,a younger Loretta Swit,Dihann Carroll(at that time on TV's "Julia"),Diana Ross…. and that was Capt. Pike,Christopher Pike.

Anne-Margret.

She could have played a variety of characters, though she seemed to specialize in ones with mood swings of Olympian heights and Stygian depths.

Oh, and von Schwartz, you've mixed up the character of Captain Christopher PIKE with the actor Christopher PINE ( The latter who played Captain Kirk in the reboot movies ). :)

Some of my favourite choices like Elizabeth Montgomery and Anne Margaret have already been mentioned. But I suggest Maureen O'Hara, perhaps as a JAG officer or, better yet, an Admiral. :)

Covert Walrus

I'm old, I can't help it!! (smile)

Phyllis Diller – Harcourt Fenton Mudd's second wife.

Why, she wouldn't have been a bit of "tribble".

Angie Dickenson

Many good possibilities already mentioned, but my top three (in alphabetical order) are:

Barbara Eden, preferably as Mara, Kang's wife (the real-life couple had teamed up a couple of times on I dream of Jeannie)

Raquel Welch as one of the gladiators in the "Gamesters of Triskelion" (I would have bet my quatloos on her)

Lana Wood as a yeoman or the historian in "Space Seed" opposite Ricardo Montalban

I'll see your Phyllis Diller and raise you a Gladys Ormphby (Ruth Buzzi) and Carol Burnett's Charwoman. Harcourt Mudd wanted a hareem, didbn't he?

While you can't replace Nichelle Nichols, if she ever got to go on leave, they should have reached out to Lilly "Ernestine" Tomlin … or your could swap out Charlie X with Edith Ann.

Bernadette Peters is my favourite actress … so … TOS, the Musical? Maybe expand (rebootniks, are you listening?) The Way to Eden and add Goldie Hawn, too.

Wonder if Phyllis would've still referred to Mudd as "Fang".

Angie Dickenson

Raaaooowrrrr!!!

Just saw her again in an old John Wayne Dean Martin western with….wait for it…Ricky Nelson. My embolism is kicking in again and I can't remember the title.

Rio Bravo,I think.

I'd have loved to have seen Sophia Loren on OST, but IMO rather than a crew member she should have played a guest alien with goddess-like powers.
