Why does Davey Jones look just like Chekov?

The Chekov character WAS an imitation of Davy Jones. Gene Roddenberry admitted it, he was going for the youth audience. I think Walter Koenig wore a wig until his own hair grew out. So Chekov looked as much like Davy was was feasible.

I remember reading that about Chekov many years ago. The character was also added to the cast after Roddenberry was criticized, not unreasonably, by the Soviets for not including a prominent Russian crew member in the first place.

It won't be long before people are saying "Adele WHO?

Most of us now don't know what her last name is, never mind people in the future. :) But I'm just being contrary.

I'm not even sure about her first name. I think she sang the theme to a Daniel Craig 007 movie.

I think that cartoon show you referred to was actually called "Justice Beaver", about a crime-fighting beaver.

Senator Powell looks a lot more like Walt Disney to me.

I thought it might have been Peter Sellers at first.

Skin tones could have been just a little darker, to be honest.
