I had a wacky idea: to see if we can list all of the guest stars and ones played by the same actor.......has any actor played 3 characters, or is two the limit??
I will start:
Jeremy Kemp played LeClerc and that Nazi Zed (foot) locker.....

I'm surprised no one has rplied to this in the past week. James Whitmore Jr had three appearances, one in each season: 1.) McCready the mercenary in Here's Looking at You, Kid 2.) Byron "the B.B.gun" Bigsby in There's Just No Accounting... 3.) Norman Fackler (5th Ring) in Wizards and Warlocks Of course, the last one was only in syndication and DVDs, not on ABC. Red West did the same thing; one appearance per season, including one unaired: 1.) Cliff the mercenary in Here's Looking at You, Kid 2.) Bo-Bo Blandin (CIA) in It's All Downhill from Here 3.) Charley the wrangler in Desperado This fact inspired this caption I made back in March:  McCready (l): Be careful with this gunsight. You can't believe the taxes we're gonna owe on this. Cliff (r): You and your "Taxman" fetish. If I were to work for the government, I'd want to be a spy with a gun! McCready: Don't you get it? With all the money the U.S. rakes in from taxpayers, I could finally build my gaming empire! Cliff: Bah! I only need enough money to get me a few horses... |

Very interesting. Red West and James Whitmore Jr. were in 3 episodes!! I did not know that.
OK, here is another one:
Christine Belford played Sheila the ghost and also Dotty Parker.
I will try to think of more.

Kai Wulf was in two episodes. He was Sergei in SATURDAY ON SUNSET BOULEVARD and he was one of the bad circus people in JUST ANOTHER THREE-RING CIRCUS. Otherwise, I think Red West and James Whitmore Jr. are the only people to star three times as different people AND in all three seasons.  I knew it, but I have been too busy to stop by much. |

I don't know his name, but there is another actor who appears in many episodes.
He was the guy in a trance who kills himself, he was one of the Nazis in DVS and I think he may have been in another episode too...is that possible???

His character name was Timothy Lighter in THE HAND-PAINTED THAI. I don't think his name was mentioned in the DVS. I think he was only ever in two episodes though. |

Oh yes. The head of Gabriel's Army in the pilot ("Jesus loves you.") was also in the episode PLAGUE as the second-in-command to the nutso general. |

Also, one of the flingable orderlies restraining Ralph in the pilot is also the motorcycle rider on his way to the Classical Gas concert before Bill bike-jacks him. He has also appeared many times as Ralph H. on a bad hair day |

Again, I don't know the actor's name but he played the boss of Tony (Ralph gets Tony the repossession job in "Fire man") and he was also that weird guy Blanchard in the "Resurrection of Carlini.

Let's not forget that the same man played both Les and Norm Carlisle.  |

Are you sure they're not played by twins?
...with the same names... |
