4. The Genie from Electra-Woman and Dyna-Girl.
ReplyDelete5. Dragos from Jason of Star Command.
6. Spirot from Buck Rogers in the 25th Century: Flight of the War Witch.
Hard to believe this guy was actually in a sitcom, the short-lived Just the Ten of Us! (He played "Janitor Bob"!)
ReplyDeleteNice pictorial! I'm sure he'd like seeing this!
Howard, my friend, you accurately named every Sid Haig photo here from the 1970s. Fantastic.
ReplyDeleteFang-Shih-Yu: Was Haig really in a sitcom? I had no idea...

Let's take a shot at this. Is #2 King Tut's Royal Apothecary from Batman?
ReplyDeleteAnd #3 from Mission: Impossible?
Howard -- You rock! You correctly identified both # 2 and # 3. The second photo is indeed Sid Haid on Batman, as Tut's apothecary. And # 3 is from Mission: Impossible...from the episode "The Diplomat!"
ReplyDeleteAwesome!
