My Trekkie-Seinfeld trivia question:

Which two actors who appeared in the original Star Trek series also appeared in Seinfeld? And can you name their parts and episodes?

The guy who played Izzy Mandelbaum Junior was in one, and I seem to remember that Phil Morris (Jackie Chiles) had a bit part in one episode when he was kid, but further details elude my overly-festive mind.

That's a new one to me Excellent! You are right - That makes 3. Eugene Dynarski was in an original Star Trek - Ben Childress in "Mudd's Women" and "The Mark of Gideon".

Yep, he was one of the kids in "Miri"

But there is a third Seinfeld actor who was also in an Original Star Trek.

I had to look this up, because it was bugging me - Clint Howard, who played Balok in the ST episode The Corbomite Maneuver, and was Tobias Lehigh Nagy in Seinfeld's The Trip:Part 2.

I can relax, and go back to Christmas now.

I know the question was about original Trek, but he also played Cmdr. Quinteros in Star Trek The Next Generation (episode 11001001).
