-Auditioned for the role of Commander Riker on Star Trek: The Next Generation"(1987). Although he didn't get the part, Jonathan Frakes, who did get the part, remembered Combs when directing an episode of "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" (1993) and cast him in a guest role in that episode.

(which originally aired on May 13, 2005, over two months before Doohan's death on July 20).

Um... thanks for the Wiki on Jeffrey, but.......is there a point? I don't see a topic for discussion here.

It was a pleasure to meet him.
*GASP* YOU MET HIM!?:(

I love him...I'm sooo jealous...

To answer your question from the other thread, yes, I've met him. He's a very interesting man, and every bit as friendly and witty as he seems.
 
Is Combs going to be in other TV roles. He was actually one of the best things about DS9 and Enterprise and I would love to see whatever he's in.
 
His IMDB page says he has three movie projects coming up, one of them a Night of the Living Dead remake in 3D, and yeah, he was one of the best character actors on DS9.
 
one of them a Night of the Living Dead remake in 3D

Another one? They already made that film a few years ago with Sid Haig. What a piece of shit that turned out to be. The biggest problem with NOTLD being a public domain film is that any prick can decide to remake it. Hopefully the Combs one will be decent.

Oh my God, you're totally right................Wow, do I feel stupid...:lol:

That's awesome! It's always so disappointing when your favorite actors are dicks, glad it's not the case here:D

Just saw him perform as Poe on Halloween here in NYC at Walter Reade Cinemas. He was great.
Awesome! I would have loved to see that!
 
I just started a rewatch of Babylon 5 about a month ago and I was surprised to see him pop up as a Psi Cop.
