I’ve seen Erica Tazel (Doralee) in an episode of LIFE, a series on NBC that was recently canceled ( why did they do that?) and also had Christina Hendricks in a few episodes.

I do see Dobson in things all the time.

From Safe, the Patron was played by the actor who was also the Jag owner in Pay It Forward, another film I really liked.

Who were your favorite other castings?



Season one of NYPD Blue went on sale, so I've been watching it. Couple eps in, I see the Marshal guarding Giardello is Gary Werntz, who also played the Patron in Safe.

It did dawn on me that he was also our guest star during the first season of Firefly.

I'va also been watching Bionic Woman, but I think it was already mentioned Mark Sheppard was in it.

Have not watched Las Vegas much before. Was flipping through channels with not much else on, and see a partial shot, teeth, chin, upper torso shot and familiar voice with wierd accent - could that be? Yup, Morena Baccarin playing a murderous Arab wife. Episode called Burning Bedouin I think. Watched the whole rest of the ep just for her.

The visible shot was partial because on the dish netwrok when tuning a new channel, the top quarter of the screen is some summary garbage they plaster on there.

Melinda Clarke ( Nandi ) had a guest role on Entourage last week as the cheated-on wife of a talent agency owner ( Malcolm McDowell ). She looked smokin' hot, stole the scene with Jeremy Piven, and then raced off in a yellow Ferrari ( "to practice her pole dancing" )... Very cool. I hope she's back for more episodes.

Christina Hendricks aka Yosaffbridge. haha WOW! I'm a sucker for redheads anyway but...WOW!

"Other guys are on me in five minutes." Um...yeah, I'd be one of those guys. I mean, talk about yer "feminine wiles!" Hot damn!

Love her in Mad Men. She's like a force of Nature. Like Mal said of them "wiles": makes men all confused and sweaty. haha

Gotta love Jaynes take. Mal said some thing like: "I have no use for a wife!" and Jayne says: "Can I use her?" haha Adam Baldwin did such a great job with Jayne.

Women...life would be all manner of boring without 'em. ;)

I like that there are subforums for our BDH. I would like to make a central linky set for the wonderful guest stars of the show/BDM. These would link to different threads about the actors.

Gina Torres:
Alan Tudyk:
Jewel Staite:
Sean Maher:
Ron Glass:


For instance, Mingo:

I'll work on adding more.
Should I make a new thread for the index/cross reference?

From Shindig, Murphy the older gentleman who saved KayLee from the rudeness of Banning. He was Dash Riprock. Plus his first movie was alongside Jeffery Hunter, James Best, and Raymond Massey. Among many other roles. (Larry Pennell).

Who were your favorite other castings?


Today I started off with a very nice surprise.
I turned on one of my favorite shows from childhood reruns, this time on The ME Channel (Memorable Entertainment). The Big Valley.
And I find the Guest Star for the episode looks familiar. Yep, it was Larry Pennell, playing a professional Boxer/Fighter. I have seen this episode before, but I had not placed the actor as being Larry before. The episode was from Feb 1967, so that was 50 years ago. The episode takes place in 1877. His wife is played by Sandra Smith, the only other person to play (in 1969) Capt James Kirk (besides Shatner) prior to 2009.
