RIP Dennis Burkley and Victor Lundin

Not exactly household names but the former was easily recognizable as the voice of Principal Moss on King of the Hill. When I saw his picture on the New York Times, I immediately knew he was the co-star of the Sanford & Son revival in the late Seventies. I’m glad the cartoon gig got him the opportunity to play more than rednecks and bikers.

Victor’s fame comes from being the first Klingon on Star Trek ever seen. I too always figured this geeky milestone belonged to Jon Colicos. Alas no, Victor was the officer who introduces Kor to the Organians, Spock and Kirk.
