Would anyone be able to let me know of episodes of TNG-DS9-VOY-ENT that have guest appearances by original crew members.

Thanks

The Next Generation:
DeForest Kelley (McCoy) = Encounter At Farpoint

Leonard Nimoy (Spock) = Unification, Parts I & II

James Doohan (Scotty) = Relics

Voyager:

George Takei (Sulu) & Grace Lee Whitney (Rand) = Flashback

I don't think Nichelle Nichols ever appeared in a post TOS series.

And of course, William Shatner (Kirk), James Doohan and Walter Koenig (Checkov) were in the GENERATIONS theatrical film.

Mark Lenard (Sarek) was in the TNG epsiode "Sarek" and "Unification, Part I"

John Colicos (Kor) appeared in the DS9 episodes "Blood Oath", "The Sword of Kahless" and "Once More Unto The Breach".

As long as John Colicos counts, we also ought to mention that Michael Ansara (Kang) and William Campbell (Koloth) also appeared in "Blood Oath" (a Deep Space 9 episode).

I think Nichelle Nichols is the only TOS cast member who didn't appear in a post-TOS series (unless Janice Rand counts as a cast member).

And then there's the DS9 episode "Trials and Tribble-ations," which used a lot of archive footage from "The Trouble with Tribbles."

There's also DS9's Trials and Tribble-ations, but it only used archive footage.

Edit: also Majel Barret.

Dr. McCoy was in the pilot for TNG.

Scotty was in a TNG episode after being held in a transporter buffer for 75 years.

Spock was in a TNG 2 parter working with a Romulan resistance movement

Kirk, Scotty and Chekhov appeared in the movie "Star Trek: Generations"

Several crew members appeared in TOS scenes cut from "The Trouble With Tribbles" for a DS9 time travel episode.

Sulu and Janice Rand appeared on an episode of Voyager.

Shannon Nutt

I didn't count Majel because I was assuming that the original poster was looking for actors that came back to play the same character.

Forgot about the other two Klingons in "Blood Oath".

Damfino

You guys are fast. this is what I get for doing 10 minutes of research before posting a reply.

That dude who played Arn Darvin in "The Trouble With Tribbles" returned as an older version of the same character in DS9's "Trials and Tribble-ations".

RKillgore

Then does it count that Majel does the Computer Voice for TNG, DS9, Voyager?

Michael Ansara also reprised his role as Kang in Flashback

and before going to trial conspirators that Valeris wasn't aware of (and couldn't blow the cover of), possibly Section 31 operatives, broke Admiral Cartright out of jail and set him up with a new identity as Joseph Sisko. This had an added effect of making Odo lie and say he couldn't perfectly impersonate a specific humanoid, so as not to blow his cover as Colonel West from his deep cover mission on behalf of the founders

and the computer voice in TOS

Thanks for the list guys.
As an original trek fan, I have only seen some TNG and the movies, but no DS9 or Voy.
Look forward to checking these ep.s out.

Well, don't get your hopes for the VOY ep. It's a bit of stretch (though it's not the first time VOY ever stretched plausibility)

Shannon Nutt

Yeah, I really hated the use of George Takei in "Flashback"...it was a real waste of a guest spot.

The best use of a TOS cast member was James Doohan in "Relics"...that was a great episode.

calhoun07

Speaking of George Takei, I always thought it was a wasted opportunity that Paramount never finalized the deal to bring a series of Captain Sulu/Excelsior movies to TV. I know this is going a tad off topic, but what derailed those plans? Anybody know?

milo bloom

Not enough detox scenes in the scripts.

BJacks

There was also an excellent episode of Futurama where the TOS actors voiced their characters.

Iron_Giant

Good call on that one, not sure if I would have been able to pull that one out of the hat.

Iron_Giant

The only Futurama I loved.

Shannon Nutt

Other than Takei lobbying for it at every convention and public appearance he made, I don't believe there were any serious plans from Paramount to make such a series.

Charlie Goose

Does Takei blame Shatner for that?

OH MY.
