Vic Tayback His role on Star Trek:īecause I am the official Gangster Geek at Den of Geek, I would like to start with the most Damon Runyon-esque character on The Original Series: Jojo Krako, played by the gruffly great Vic Tayback in the episode “A Piece of the Action.” There are so many guest stars to choose from, but Den of Geek would like to start with these magnificent thespians… 30. Others, became bona fide science fiction players after their careers went into warp drive. Some of the actors came with wonderful science fiction bona fides. Others, were already legends before beaming aboard. Some of them, admittedly, became legends because of their appearance. Many legendary actors appeared on Star Trek: The Original Series. And, because the series was art and artfully done art at that, it also took in some of the top acting talent in the industry.
Science fiction writers clamored to promote the show and the art. The show that started as a “ Wagon Train to space” helped the former frontier country make great strides in the fight for racial equality, emerging technology, and even in gathering funds and excitement for NASA’s nascent space program. Star Trek: The Original Series only lasted three seasons, but it had a tremendous impact on both the science fiction genre and society in general.
