Spot The B5 Actor

You could probably play this game with any TV Series/Movie, but as I've been spotting more B5 actors in other programmes recently, I thought I'd start this.

This is for post-b5 projects undertaken by ex-B5 actors (not prior).

Okay first off, on Monday (I think) on BBC3 I watched a programme called Broken News, a satirical news-type programme, that sort of flicks between many different news channel. Part way into the show, it flicks to a news agency called IBS News, with co-anchor Julia Regan (Claudia Cristian). No sign of a "Voice of The Resistance" logo in the station tho'.

Claudia also got top billing on the credits on TV, as well as being the presenter shown on the homepage to Broken News (see above link).

Last week sometime, I happened to be watching Lost on More 4, and who popped up in the jungle, but a "crazy french woman". That character happens to be played by Mira Furlan, and she plays it well.

And one more now, from quite a while back actually, but I still think it was post-B5, and that was a show called "Third Rock From The Sun", where a character by the name of Seth, an English nihilistic poet, was played by Jason Carter. He got into two episodes going out with Sally.

Be Warned! I was getting bad and slow responses from the above 3rd Rock site.

If I see any more B5 actors featuring in stuff, I may well add them here...

Re: Spot The B5 Actor

What do Peter Jurasik, Richard Biggs, Jerry Doyle, Claudia Christian, Andreas Katsulas, Joshua Cox, Andrea Thompson, John Vickery and David Crowley have in common apart from B5?

All of them have appeared on at least one episode of NYPD Blue after completing Babylon 5.

Well I definately remember seeing Jerry Doyle & Peter Jurasik in Sliders at some point and Bill Mumy was in DS9 as a cameo as well.

Re: Spot The B5 Actor

Peter Jurassik was definitely in Sliders, but it was a good while back now, and all I remember really was him sitting there with an eery ghostlike haze over the lens, and then he said something, and they erm... slud.

Haven't seen any of the actors in NYPD Blue, but then I never watched it (other than the original first series - was that b4 b5?). Thanks for the heads up though, manephelien.

But then, Mariel, it seems everyone has appeared in Star Trek.

Re: Spot The B5 Actor

Babylon 5 first aired in 1994, NYPD Blue in 1993, so the first season was done before B5. However, most of the B5 actors seem to have appeared in NYPD Blue after their B5 appearance.

Re: Spot The B5 Actor

The female doctor in season 4 and 5, the one that takes over from Franklin is in Space Above and Beyond I saw her in at least one episode.

There was at least one general from B5 but I can't think of who yet in Space Above and Beyond too.

Jason Carter played a demon in an episode of Charmed. Bruce Boxleitner is keeping busy--see him occasionally in different Sci-Fi Channel shows. Richard Biggs passed away a year or two ago. I haven't seen much of the others in any of the shows I normally watch.

Andreas Katsulas passed on recently.

Jerry Doyle, who has a show on talk radio, was recently (Week of May 21-25, 2007) on Lou Dobbs, on CNN.

Re: Spot The B5 Actor

Recently? January 2006. Sad certainly. It's almost exactly three years ago since Richard Biggs died as well, and over two years since Tim Choate (Zathras) passed.

Let them walk where no shadows fall.

Re: Spot The B5 Actor

Looks like I missed that nymike03, but then I don't think what, LA has gotta be over 4500 miles away from little old blighty, so I would never have made it anyway. They should come here, the lazy, why, I bought all the videos, they owe me a visit for such dedication, surely?

I tell you what I did see though, Avonava or however you called her was in a spoof TV News programme, must be months ago now, in the UK called... erm... time to do a quick search... Oh I dunno. Anyway it was like Voice of the Resistance all over again, but funny (instead of mass alien death).

Oh i see, I already mentioned that in the original post and EVEN provide a link. Wow, nearly two years ago. Thanks me, now I remember.
