| S Jun 6, 2017 at 15:08 | comment | added | Rand al'Thor♦ | There were a lot of non-constructive comments here, e.g. mentioning more recycled actors and interesting facts about them; I've moved the conversation to chat, where you can keep on discussing these things for as long as you want. Please direct further discussion there (constructive points about the question can still be made in comments). | |

| Jun 5, 2017 at 18:00 | comment | added | Eric Lippert | @KyleJones: "often" is not the same as "always". The first episode of series 8 of Doctor Who addressed the fact that Peter Capaldi, playing the Doctor, had already appeared as a character actor in an earlier season in a in-universe way. This was silly, but hey, it's Doctor Who. | |

| Jun 5, 2017 at 6:45 | comment | added | flith | @NKCampbell: Tim Russ did not play Tuvok on the Enterprise-B. It can be quite clearly seen that he does not have Vulcan ears, for example (movies.trekcore.com/gallery/albums/generations/ch2/gen0155.jpg) and his appearances are also discussed at some length in this SE question: scifi.stackexchange.com/q/31779/68434 | |

| Jun 4, 2017 at 19:32 | comment | added | NKCampbell | I believe there is also a point made to retcon Tim Russ to be Tuvok (Voyager) on the bridge of the Enterprise-B in the film Generations (can't recall where though, book, etc..._ | |

| Jun 4, 2017 at 19:12 | comment | added | GeoffAtkins | They did, in-universe, specifically recognise the similarity between Tasha Yar and Sela, both played by Denise Crosby. I'll accept that's a special case though. | |
| Jun 4, 2017 at 19:12 | comment | added | Kyle Jones | You probably got downvoted because actor recycling is very, very common in episodic television and it is always done with no in-universe explanation. It's a peculiar thing that is simply put aside and taken for granted, like why comic strip characters always wear the same clothes and never age. | |
| Jun 4, 2017 at 19:02 | comment | added | Captain J.L Picard | Just a quick question: I'm fairly new to Stack Exchange, so I was wondering why people are down-voting my question, just so I don't make the same mistake in the future. Thanks! | |
