Actors being re used

[coalminerswife85]

ok so how many of you have noticed actors being re used in episodes of the waltons I give examples such as....

In the episode "The Spoilers" you have Alicia, who later comes back in the episode "the Heartbreaker" she is Curt's sister Vanessa

In the episode "The Wing Walker" the pilot later comes back in the episode " The Wedding" as Curt Willard.

In the episode "The Waiting" John-Boy's room mate in the hospital later comes back in the episode "The Lumberjack" as Paul

anyone else noticed any of these? Maybe I've just watched the Waltons way to much....nah that couldn't happen

cousin Cody comes back as Selena lindfields grandfather

the guy that owns the feed/hardware store also works for the state department.

William Phipps appears in four episodes - in two of them he's John Martin Renshaw (The Celebration and The Prophesy); in one he's Mel Parsons (John's Crossroad) and in the last he's a bus driver (The Medal). Also, Kami Cotler's brother Jeff is seen in several episodes (I understand that he wasn't all that excited about acting, either!) By the way, Selena's last name is Linville, and Cody was Olivia's uncle, not a cousin.

Will Geer's daughter play in a couple episodes playing different characters each time.

I notice one lady, an extra, who is in nearly every episode. She and Grandma pause in front of Flossie Brimmer's house in The Rebellion while Grandpa is on the porch, attempting to persuade Zelda Maynard to stop playing the church organ. But if you watch you will see her on the street in Charlottesville, or in a cafe, or in Ike's, or at church. The only place I haven't seen her is at the university.

Carol Jones who played Joanne from Pinup which her child died from poison and also played Laurie Ellis on The Victims

Kip Niven who played Liet Clarke Oler also came back as Rev Tom Marshall in The Beginning.

Peggy Rea shows up as Mary Ellen and Erins landlord before later appearing as Rose

I don't think the pilot in the wing walker and the second Curt are the same person.
They look alike, but are different actors.
Some of the others mentioned, I hadn't realized. But you are right

[coalminerswife85]

The pilot in the wing walk erand the first curt ae the same person, not the second curt.

[waltonfan1]

You are right, I was thinking of the AirMail Man......

A J Covington appears twice first in The Literary Man and then in The Abdication. But two separate
actors play the part of A J Covington,

I don't remember the name of the movie, it was on "this". I was channel surfing when Peggy Rea was young in this movie about, oh, it's called Cold Turkey. The town would get so many millions of dollars from a tobacco company if everyone in the town could quit smoking for a certain time period.

In The Air Mail Man as coalminer suggested the part was played by Tom Bower who later returned to
play the part of Curt Willard

[coalminerswife85]

I beleive you mean the wing walker, the air mail man was a different episode and a different actor

[michelle]

That's right. The air mail man's guest star was Paul Michael Glaser from Starsky and Hutch fame.
