I should be starting at -49, Ghost Lee mistakenly docked me two points after his last question for some mysterious reason (probably related to his disappearance).

16. R: Name an actor in Star Trek: TOS who physically appeared in a non-Star Trek TV series - in other words, voice acting does not count - and the other series in which they appeared.

So nobody slammed the best answer, and everybody slammed the second-rate answer?

Perhaps that's because he answered...

I was oscillating between this and Space 1999 (for some reason, Lost in Space and Star Trek Deep Space 9 didn't enter my head even though they should've been contenders for my answer too). Went away from Space 1999 because I wasn't even sure how many people even remembered the show (where Above and Beyond was more recent and had a decent run). Rookie sheep mistake of forgetting that this forum is full of old farts

That's ok ... coming off two consecutive sheep wins, I'm more than fine seeing someone else take this game (though hopefully another challenger arises to make the game reveals exciting).

Re: Sheep will control the horizontal: A Sci-Fi TV Sheep Game

There are some really nerdy answers to this question. I admit I totally forgot about Shatner.

I think the fact that Space 1999 has been released on DVD and BD has kept it somewhat in the nerd consciousness, more than something like Blakes 7.

Yes, because the question specifies that a TV series must be provided along with the actor, this answer is unfortunatly wrong. Sorry DaveNinja. Go ahead and cry it out.

So +1 for a wrong answer means every single answer was a unique Yeah, GhostLee really needed to tighten up these reverses.

And that means no one answered TJ Hooker for Shatner?

Re: Sheep will control the horizontal: A Sci-Fi TV Sheep Game

Wait, did I just notice that DaveNinja only scored a +1 for a wrong answer? Does that mean that EVERYONE ELSE scored a correct unique?

Spoiler:


Yup.

Yup, and thanks for stealing my line on the next reveal

Or Boston Legal, or Tek War, or any number of other things that he has been in. The list is really quite extensive.

A good sneaky answer would have been to answer Nimoy for TJ Hooker, but apparently there was no need to be sneaky on this question

Re: Sheep will control the horizontal: A Sci-Fi TV Sheep Game

Sometimes in these games, throwing out a generic answer can result in unexpected matches. How did that strategy work out here?

Not so well.

Sometimes when you don't know the answer, you just make up something silly

Looks like that's our leader. Is this an opportunity to cut into the lead?

It probably should've been series regulars rather than random guest appearances on either end.
