70s Trek: Star Trek In The 1970s

Star Trek had a large regular cast for its time with seven regular roles.  It also had a group of characters that made more than one appearance and in some cases, then just disappeared.   Some of the faces you see again and again, but we never get to know who they really are.  These include characters like Lt. Kevin Riley, Mr. Kyle and Mr. Leslie.  One character we did get to know pretty well was Yeoman Janice Rand.  But she disappeared suddenly in the first half of the first season. On this episode of 70s Trek, co-hosts Bob Turner and Kelly Casto take a look at actors Bruce Hyde, Booker Bradshaw, John Winston, Bilie Blackburn and Eddie Paskey in Part 1. Next week, we take a look at actor Grace Lee Whitney and her character, Janice Rand.
