For me, it's usually "In Search Of."
But I just found a TV movie on Youtube he made in 1972, called "Baffled!"
A detective with a supernatural twist.

(27,301 posts)A series mix of Earth (often, but not only Boston & NYC) based Sci-fi, action & intrigue, humor, some horror, a bit of, I guess, fantasy.
A brilliant series!

There is also this old movie where he plays an alien who lands on earth with his fellow aliens. I barely remember it, but it was in black and white and they drove an old pickup to get around. It took me like ten minutes to figure out that the guy was, in fact, Leonard.

(11,546 posts)Supposedly, Leonard had copies of it, or maybe he bought the original, I forget. It is funny that when you see those guys in their face paint and costumes, one can plainly see that one of them is Leonard Nimoy. His distinctive features give him away every time.
