I just started a few weeks back. I kept seeing Dabney Coleman as the postscript in the opening credits.

I said, he must show up pretty late. About 3/4 of the way through (roughly his 3rd or 4th appearance, I figure), I realized.

WAIT - the Commodore is Dabney Coleman - sonofabitch he got old.

He's approximately the same age as Shatner and Nimoy and is younger than Clint Eastwood - he looks a thousand in BE.

Awesome.

There's been a few decent cameos by known actors in the show as well. James Cromwell comes to mind in later seasons. And multiple Office Space actors. You'll enjoy it.

How can you not tell by his voice? I immediately recognized his voice and had to question myself as to whether or not that was actually him.

That's ultimately how I got it - but, again, after 3 or 4 appearances. I noticed his name in the credits for the first episode and was looking for him.

I guess we found him.

I haven't seen his arse in years so that's probably why I didn't catch it. Been a long time since I heard him bitch out Mayo.

*SPOILERS*














Okay, all cleaned up in the final episode of Season 1, he looks like "old" Dabney Coleman ought to look (although he still looks really, really old. The whole dying, disheveled look, coupled with the fact that he is and looks extremely old threw me at first.
