I agree that it is a treat to catch many 'old' players turning up as guest stars in episodes of current tele series. Many a time in dramas like the C.S.I. franchise, the 'Law and Order' group, and similar, I see the occasional survivor from the golden era.
A while back I saw Nina Foch playing David McCallum's mother in a couple of episodes of NCIS, and many other 'senior' players decorate regular shows.
Even stars from my era who were pretty big for a time turn up in popular shows a lot. Example - 'Desperate Housewives' used people like Lesley Ann Warren, Ryan O'Neal, Polly Bergen and others playing the housewives PARENTS ( which made me feel great - NOT ! lol).
