I'm rewatching and I can't believe how many big name actors they've had on. I'm in season 2 of my rewatch and these are the names that have jumped out at me so far.
Ethan Hawke and Olivia D'Abo in the same episode (the one I'm currently watching)
Roger Moore!!!!
Faye Dunaway
Rutger Hauer
Tarantino
Bradley Cooper - just kidding :-)
Any others stand out to you that I've forgotten? How did they accomplish this in the first and second season?
There were some recurring guest stars who would be regulars on future long-running TV shows.
Miguel Sandoval (Medium)
Terry O'Quinn (Lost)
Patricia Wettig, Balthazar Getty and Ken Olin (Brothers & Sisters w/ Ron Rifkin)
My brother loves horror movies, so he was pretty excited when I told him Angus Scrimm (Tall Man from the Phantasm franchise) appears on the series.

They missed an opportunity to make Rutger Hauer a great recurring guest villain. I thought he depicted a much more ominous villain than Ron Rifkin did during his entire run
shareI'm rewatching, too.
Peter Berg is another one who comes to mind
