I absolutely love the Vulcan combo of no emotions plus resting wtf-did-you-just-say-to-me face. Tuvok was the best Vulcan (since Spock was only half) and imho VOY didn't utilize him proportional to how good Russ is.

Can anyone recommend a standout role Russ did outside of Trek? I'd love to see more range from this man.

Been on a voluptuous Vulcan voice acting kick lately. Outside of Mark Lenard's limited appearances as Sarek, Tim Russ's Tuvok wins out.

Oh wow, Lenard was the first actor to play a Romulan, Vulcan, and Klingon.

Now I need to rewatch the TNG episode where Sarek gets Bendii Syndrome (the more extreme Vulcan dementia compared to Tuvan Syndrome) and brain boxes with Picard.

Just rewatched that and the Unification 2-parter yesterday. Great stuff.

Edit: Lenard was the 1st Ridged Klingon in TMP. John Colicos' Kor was the 1st overall.

Sir, we've combed Tim Russ's other works and I have to report:
