OK, here's an off-the-wall topic: How many connections can you think of between Columbo and Star Trek?

There were the obvious ones: William Shatner (Captain Kirk) appearing in "Butterflies in Shades of Gray" and in "Fade In to Murder" and Leonard Nimoy (Mr. Spock) appeared in "A Stitch in Crime." You might also count Kate Mulgrew ("Mrs. Columbo" and Captain Janeway in Star Trek Voyager).

Nehemiah Persoff, Jesse Jerome in "Now You See Him," was the character Toff in an episode of Star Trek Next Generation.

Spencer Garrett, Verity Chandler's secretary in "Ashes to Ashes," was crewman Simon Tarses in an episode of Star Trek Next Generation.

Richard Riehle, Sergeant Degarmo in "Ashes to Ashes" as well as "Murder With Too Many Notes," was the character Batai in an episode of Star Trek Next Generation and Seamus Driscol in two episodes of Star Trek Voyager.

Can anyone find others?

The obvious one not mentioned would be Walter Koenig appearing in Shatner's "Fade Into Murder".

And confining this to classic Trek guest stars who were on Columbo add these names.

Wow, I had no idea the connection ran *that* deep! How could I have missed Walter Koenig and Ricardo Montalban? *faceslap* The rest I had no idea...

your mind must have simply been elsewhere.

I'm a fool for forgetting my favorite Trek female guest, Mariette Hartley (Zarabeth in "All Our Yesterdays") who was twice on Columbo ("Publish Or Perish", "Try And Catch Me")!

Lord preserve! I thought The Twilight Zone was bad enough with connections but, Lord, Star Trek has the lot! Thanks everyone for your great research and info.

Did you get Walter Koenig (Checkov)? He was in the same episode as William Shatner. . . .

Just watched Fade Into Murder again
Did not realize that Walter Koening was also in it as well.

Boy, nothing like stirring up an ancient string to stimulate conversation, but how about Arthur Batanides (Murph in Mayem) appearing in "That Which Survives" and Robert Walker (also from Mayhem) appearing in "Charlie X."

These old strings are somewhat nostalgic in a way, because that they always show entries posted by forum contributors who have long since disappeared.

I haven't disappeared. I just haven't wanted to participate anymore since cassavetes45 passed away. I think the fun went out of it for a lot of people after that.

I haven't disappeared, either, but I don't post as often as I used to or under the same name. And Carleen's death is partly responsible for that, but probably not in the way you would expect. About six months before she died, after years of fun discussion and banter with her over the Forum, I finally decided to reach out to her via personal email. She never responded. About a month later, I felt I was being attacked by another frequent Forum member, and it appeared as though Carleen were supporting the attacker and even egging him on. So I stopped posting for awhile. Then in June of that year she died. And posts from other Forum members indicated that they and Carleen were exchanging emails, talking about Memorial Day plans, etc. right up until a few days before she died. And I remember her final post about her son's Columbo impression (or something like that?), I suppose so she could enjoy the feedback while she was still living. With all that, she couldn't send one email to me in six months so we could officially "meet" before her death? I was shocked and saddened by her passing, and sad that whatever the issue was between us would never be resolved, but I still remain confused. And her indifference toward me at the end made it easier for me to accept her death. Eventually I began posting again here, but nowhere near as often as before and always using different names (and she was the only reason years ago I started using the same name for my posts in the first place). I'm sorry if this is offensive to those who had a good relationship (personal or Internet) with her, which is why I always kept quiet about it. But I hope by now enough time has passed that my comments will not be taken the wrong way. Or if anyone is aware of some other details from that time which could shed light on this?

Oh sir, one more thing...Lawrence Luckinbill (Sybok) in ST V and Mark McAndrews in Make Me a Perfect Murder.

Bumping this old thread, because there's another Trek-Columbo connection that all of us missed. One of the credited writers for "Playback" is Booker Bradshaw. He was also an actor who appeared on two episodes of original Trek ("A Private Little War", "That Which Survives") as Dr. M'Benga.

Tricia O'Neil plays the dog trainer in "How to dial a murder". She played a few characters across ST DS9 and TNG, the most notable being Captain Rachel Garrett, of the Enterprise-B, in the episode "Yesterday's Enterprise"
Kim Cattrall was also in the same columbo episode, and she also played Lt Valeris in the movie Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country

my bad I meant Enterprise C not B :)

Penny Johnson Gerald had a small role as Maxine Jarrett in the columbo episode "Murder can be Hazardous to your Health" and was Kasidy Yates in Deep Space 9, eventually marrying Benjamin Cisco. She also plays the ship doctor's on Orville but I digress ;)
