Alex Datcher | Trek Untold Encore

This week it's an encore episode that originally aired on October 2020 with special guest Alex Datcher.

The lower decks crew aboard a starship rarely get the recognition they deserve, so today, we get to chat with a Starfleet member whose quick thinking saved the entire Enterprise.

Alex Datcher played Ensign Tait on the season 7 opener "Descent Part 2" in "Star Trek: The Next Generation," which was a dream come true for her. Datcher walks us through the audition process, what it was like being on set and working with Gates McFadden, and more memories of her time onboard the Enterprise.

Alex also discusses her first time being on a TV show in "The Young and The Restless," working on the "Beauty and the Beast" TV series with Linda Hamilton and Ron Perlman, The Cynthia Rothrock action film "Rage and Honor," being in a Perry Mason movie with Raymond Burr, Wesley Snipes stories from "Passenger 57" and how her previous job as a flight attendant helped her nail the audition, and what the worst role she ever had was, and much more!
