So who knows the only actor to play three different aliens in Star Trek? Can you also name the aliens? I'm not looking for all the character's names, just the actor's name, the alien, and bonus points if you know the character's names (there is one character that everyone should know).

I would go with Mark Lenard (Vulcan, Klingon and ...).
Mark Lenard is correct. Did you forget the third alien?
Oh...it was the Romulan Commander (duh). I thought the Klingon was the best (and LEAST recognizable). Also cool that he made it into ST:TMP.
Yes - you got the three. First he was the Romulan Commander in Balance of Terror (1st season), then Sarek of Vulcan in Journey to Babel (2nd season), and then played the Klingon Commander (who only spoke in Klingon and was not recognizable as Mark Lenard) in Star Trek TMP.
He also appeared in ST III, and ST IV - Save the Whales.
I was working at the Theater when IV and V came out. I must have seen IV a gazillion times.
IV is my second favorite. My first favorite is ST II. I saw the first one in the theater when it was released in '79, but I didn't really get it until ST II came out in the summer of '82. That one really got me and I've been hooked ever since! The reruns were also on the rest of the summer after I saw the movie - and Martha the trekkie was born at the ripe old age of 13!
Don't forget Mark Leonard in the episode of the animated Star Trek where Spock goes back in time to Vulcan posing as a cousin of Sarek so he can save the life of young Spock during the Vulcan coming-of-age ritual.
I'll have to see that one again. My mom gave me the animated series on DVD for my birthday last year. They are way cool!
