I can't speak for Leonard or James, but wasn't DeForest's pre-star trek career mostly western?


EDIT: Here's another fun one, though not gunsmoke. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9cLM0ZE8VU&feature=related

What blows my mind is that show I never wanted to watch with grandpa is actually pretty good.

I love the dialogue in the 40's and 50's.  They all talk like gangsters. :lol

Spock makes a pretty good Indian.

I was thinking the same thing.  Cool finds, Rumbo!

Yeah, that "seriousness" about him fits the stereotypical Indian pretty well.

Um, is it just me or does his German accent sound exactly like his Russian accent?

I think it was supposed to be a Swedish accent. :)

And a shoddy one. In fact, I always thought part of the TOS hilarity came from the bad accents. I mean, compare old Scotty and Chekhov against the recent one, where they actually got people with the proper accent. It's night and day.
I'm always surprised to read that Doohan got his roles because of his skill with accents,  and I'm always thinking "not really, right?"

While his Scottish accent wasn't the most authentic, it's still weird hearing him without it.

Oh, I know, totally. Just as weird it is to see Spock singing about Frodo the Hobbit.
