Spotted Stephen Macht (Joe Cooper) in an episode of Doubt over the weekend.
He played a retired prosecutor testifying at a parole hearing. Grey-haired but he's holding up well.

I actually ran across the second-half of this film airing on cable years ago and was quite impressed with how good Petersen was in it.

It seems wrong that I've neglected to mention him so far in this thread, but I've remembered that Harry Northup - AKA Wayne Harkness redux - played the father of one of Buffalo Bill's victims in The Silence Of The Lambs. As someone who can do great stuff with little material he was a perfect choice. His brief conversation with Jodie Foster played up the human angle wonderfully.

Joanna Pettet is a mute:


Despite a very green Lisa Hartman having a killer tranny (do we still use that word?) maniac boyfriend, this episode is strangely pedestrian --although it was #3 in the ratings for the week it aired in January 1977. So perhaps audiences liked pretty men dressed as ugly women (with a cute girlfriend). But, hey, it was the '70s:


Pretty 'meh' episode with Ruth Roman:

Donna turned up in an episode of The Rookie: Feds that was on here last night ("Out For Blood") as a cosmetics mogul - not exactly against type.

So, I watched the 1992 horror film Raising Cain last night. It's a Brian DePalma film where villainous John Lithgow, a split-personality, abducts children for research science (fortunately they don't show the viewer this), and bumps off whoever stands in his way.

And who should be his murder victims but 90210's Andrea Zuckerman (Gabrielle Carteris) and Knots' Jill Bennett (Teri Austin)!

Austin has about 5 minutes of screentime in the very first scene of the film before she is chloroformed, and the movie later shows her trying fruitlessly trying to get out of the rapidly submerging car, before showing her on the morgue table with bulging eyes and agape mouth.

Still, I wonder if DePalma was a secret Knots fan... Before her death, she is placed temporarily in a car's trunk, and what should be her character name but.... Karen!

And DePalma also introduced the fabulous Deborah Shelton to the screen in 1984's Body Double right before Dallas.

But not her voice nor her t*ts. So it was like hiring a mannequin!!!

I hope it's as much fun as the one episode of Nip/Tuck with Donna Mills, Joan Van Ark, Deborah Shelton and Shari Belafonte. :cool:
