    Mark Lenard on playing Urko from Planet of the Apes

    A nice little segment of Mark Lenard reflecting on his role as the general gorilla. A fun piece for those fans of the series. I enjoyed it immensely.

      Thanks Tom for sharing that--I've always enjoyed Lenard, from ST: TOS to "Here Come the Brides" & POTA. He had a certain warmth that shown in his performances, even Sarek. I suppose it was his voice.

          Very Cool! Urko was always my favorite character from the show and Apes movies.

              Are you talking about the story called "Values"?

                  That was great! And yes, it really is ashame it didn't go on. It was a good series. And yes, I liked Mark in POTA, Star Trek and Here Come The Brides. Coincidentally, all short lived series, (Star Trek being the longest).
