  1. I'll leave all of Star Trek entries to others and just point out that #6 is Andros, who appeared in two two-part episodes of "Wonder Woman" -- "Judgement from Outer Space" and "The Mind Stealers from Outer Space."

    1. Hi Brian,

      You really tore through that list, my friend! Wow!

      The only quibbles would be with #2 - right ambassador, wrong episode! And # 10, Right series, wrong episode! Otherwise, positively brilliantly done!

      Great job!

    1. Jay-Jay,

      Masterful job, but Brian beat you to the punch by just a little! Still, you did a fantastic job recognizing this diplomatic bunch.

      #13 is from "Lonely Among Us."

      All that's left on this list, #1!!!

      Great job!

      best,

    1. Hi Carl,

      That's a good guess, especially given my love of Space:1999. However, image #1 is not from 1999. However, it does share its stars with that series...

  5. I'm less embarrassed about getting #10 wrong than #2, since I'm far more familiar with TOS than TNG. Ah, I'm getting old...

    And I suppose #1 is Mission: Impossible, from your clue.

    Thanks again for another great brain teaser!

    1. Hi Brian,

      Nothing at all to be embarrassed about. You totally defeated today's brain teaser. Great job! If the shoe were on the other foot, and I had to remember all these, I doubt I'd do half as well as you do on a regular basis!

      #1 is indeed from Mission Impossible. It's James Daly in the first season episode "Shock!"

      best,
