Nancy Travis

Gwynyth Walsh

I rarely see either of these actors without thinking of the other. I think they should be brother and sister.

EDWARD BINNS

Periodically I see Binns in an episode of the Twilight Zone. He was the commander of an early space flight that fails and lands back on Earth, but the crew thinks they have landed on some asteroid. They are in the desert near Las Vegas but there are no signs of humanity, so they think they are on a desert asteroid and may not survive the harsh environment. Dewey Martin is a crew member that systematically kills off the other crew, to save himself. Only at the end, Martin’s character comes over the rise and sees a roadway and power polls and realizes where he is, but by then all the other crewmembers are dead.

JOANNE LINVILLE

I see that Joanne Linville died at age 94. I was just looking at a color picture of her in character as a Romulan Commander (who was in love with Spock). She was looking good, and those thigh high boots were soooo sexy. *I saw a woman in a grocery store (seems like it was Publix a few years ago) and she had high boots. They weren’t thigh high, but higher than most, and it made me think of Linville’s character.

KEYE LUKE

I’m going to include Keye Luke on this page although he does not remind me of another actor. I just wanted to show the young Luke as Charlie Chan’s #1 Son, “But gee pop,” talented artist, and the wise old Luke that guided David Carradine’s character through Kung Fu. *And, I first was made aware of Luke as the old blind Kung Fu Master.

SUZAN FARMER

An actress with a different look over time.

HARVE PRESNELL

And now an actor that didn’t even remind me of himself, although I enjoyed his performances 30 years apart. What a voice as he sang, “They Call the Wind Mariah,” in “Paint Your Wagon,” and then years later he played an abusive, old salesman, with Barbara Rush in an episode of “the New Outer Limits.”
