Uhh. .. Steve Guttenberg's career got better? Have you seen him in anything since? I can't remember him in anything since the "Three Men and a Baby" films, and they were 10 years ago. I reckon he should demand a refund from the Stonecutters.

Bubba Smith played himself in Gargoyles II: The New Batch and played a security guard in Married With Children. Hang on, that IS a plummeting career!!
David Graf was in ST twice: he played the helmsman in 'Soldiers Of The Empire', and Amelia Earhart's navigator in 'The 37s'. And he was in an A-Team episode, which counts for treble.
I'd say he's been doing the best out of the lot of them, although I recall Lasard's actor being in The Crucible.

Wasn't Lassard a Commandent, rather than a Commisioner?

Lassard was George Gaynes, who was apparently on "Punky Brewster".
Travelling Uncle Matt was David Goelz.
Thus spake the IMDb, anyway.

Hang on. Wasn't Uncle travelling Matt actually Gogo's uncle? Therefore, wouldn't he have been a fraggle?
I thought that the old guy with the dog was just the lighthouse keeper. He never seemed to do much travelling to me.

Yeah, Fulton Mackay in the UK version. "Ach, Sprocket!" 8)

According to the IMDb again, Fulton Mackay played "Captain" in the UK version, which character is not listed otherwise. Hell if I can figure out who played "old guy w/ dog" in the regular version...

No no no no no, it went like this: The scenes with the old man and his dog were essentially inserts,and were tailored for each country it was shown. The British version featured a Scottish lighthouse keeper and his dog Sprocket.

Yeah, but the American version had an old guy w/ a dog, too, as I recall. Except he wasn't in a lighthouse. I think he was just in his home, or something.
Anyway, I don't know what the character's name was, and I didn't see anything that seemed like it was probably him. I could be wrong, though.

Those scenes were different for every country?
For some reason, I find that incredibly cool.
But what about those instances when a Fraggle (usually Gogo) would wander out of the hole into the lighthouse (or whatever)? What did they do then?
And why don't they bring a DVD out with all the different nationalities scenes on it? And have Gogo going SuPEr SaIyA-JIN 5! I GOT THE POWERUP!

"The Doc and Sprocket sequences in the show were localized for each production country. In Canada, USA, and Germany, Doc was an inventor. In the UK, he was a lighthouse keeper, and in France, a chef.
Gerard Parkes .... Doc (U.S.A. & Canada) Hans Helmut Dickow .... Doc (Germany) Michel Robin .... Doc (France) Fulton Mackay .... Captain (UK)"
