    The Progenitor race had a Combs character that made sure at least one person on every planet would always look like him.

        Oops. I was referring to the TNG episode. I haven’t watched the latest season of Discovery yet.

    One of the best parts of ds9 and many other episodes. It’s no wonder they kept bringing him back.

      Jeffrey Combs is in a lot of low budget movies that all get one star, but he’s the reason it has that star.

    It’s the story, of a lovely Jeffrey

    Presumably he also would have played Wayoun 1-3

    Trying to think of my favorite… it’s close between Shran and Weyoun. Brunt, FCA was pretty outstanding too, really gave texture to Ferangi culture.

      Oh, it’s totally Weyoun. The best was his interplay with Dukat— you could tell that Weyoun was always patronizing Dukat and thought very little of him, but would carefully dance around stroking his ego as long as it helped advance the Dominion’s interests by getting the cooperation of the Cardassian Union. So many times, we would get these scenes of Dukat and Weyoun together, with Dukat preening and bloviating, and Weyoun is literally saying, “fascinating!” Not because he’s actually interested in what Dukat is saying, but because Dukat is a megalomaniacal, narcissistic lunatic, an Weyoun is actually quite fascinated by listening to his opinion about why they shouldn’t just eradicate the population of Earth without first trying to get them to worship Dukat— and only killing all of them if they refuse.

      The subtle acting between these two actors - playing such horrible villains - was really a delight to watch. Their chemistry was so good. Casey Biggs as Damar was very different, and while he did a very good job, too, he was never as slimy or just… fucking bonkers like Dukat was.

      I like to think that Krem took some of Archer’s advice on being more assertive, changed his name/profession, and eventually became Brunt, F.C.A. I don’t believe Ferengi actually live that long, but just roll with me on this.

        Who’s to say Krem doesn’t have a son or nephew he’s worked with before he died, maybe his family tree extends out to eventually include one . . . Brunt.

          Good thinking. That’s much more plausible.

    My first thought was “It’s the guy from Frighteners!”

          That harkens back to one of those things in my youth that kept me up at night. And yet, now, I appreciate and adore. Go figure.

            I know exactly how you feel. The Thing is the primary one for me. Traumatized me. Now I have Thing toys and 4K Blu-ray because I love it so much.
