I admit, I had no idea who this was, but when I showed this to a co-worker, he knew it right away. Said it was one of his favorite shows when he was growing up. He even got his name almost right. 😛 Sad story though (for the other guy).

EDIT: BTW, how are you doing techs?
EDIT2: Put the 😛 face in the wrong place.

No one will even venture a guess?

Need more clues?
 
Yes, that's him, Meeno Peluce.

He starred in the one season Voyagers! Up against 60 Minutes the show didn't stand a chance. Darwin.

His co-star John-Eric Hexum was a victim of Darwin when he was fooling around on the set ofhis next show and shot a gun that was filled with a dummy charge at his head. The packing material still had enough energy to kill him.
 
Ok, this guy has been in over 200 roles in movies and tv shows since starting his career in the 1950's. He appeared in a number of scifi stuff as you an imagine. His biggest almost breakout was when he starred in a tv pilot/movie called Strange New World, loosely based on a Gene Roddenberry idea. The network had high hopes but the movie bombed. In the 1960's he buffed up and learned martial arts and appeared mostly as the bad guy.

Basically he's a guy you saw and recognized, but who's name you didn't know.

FYI he had a small role in the movie From Dusk Till Dawn

John Saxon.

I mostly remember him from Enter the Dragon and an episode of the Six Million Dollar Man where he was a scientist who was kidnapped‎ and replaced with a robot who fought Steve.

Roper! Not really a sci fi movie, but iconic in its own right. Thats the movie I think of when I see him. Seems like this dude was in everything in the 70-90s.

Really? You must have beaten me by seconds!
 
I posted him for as much as his prolific career as his scifi credentials. A shout out to a guy who spent a career entertaining us.

He looks like an aging Michael Ironside slimmed up from the cocaine. I had to look him up to see who he was; I remember him doing goofy white boy kung-fu in Enter the Dragon.
 
Ok, with the above Boston Danglers post, and this new one, players at home now have two actors to guess.

This actress could fill out a uniform and go "pew pew" with the boys. All the while giving this poster feelings in the nether regions when he watched her.

Ok, this is Anne Lockhart, daughter of the famous June Lockhart. Anne played Sheba on the original Battlestar Galactica. She was a love interest of Starbuck and their was tension between her and Cassiopeia who was a prostitute who also was involved with Starbuck.

Anne has escaped the scifi world to have a very extensive tv and movie resume.

They always like to show Anne, as Sheba, in her warriors outfit which at times appears to be spray painted on her and drove a lot of teenagers to experiment with touching their bodies.

I think her mother is more of a scifi staple than she is.
