Note: The cast changed considerably throughout the program's seven-year run, so not all of the characters listed above appeared at the same time, and even regular cast members did not always appear in every episode, depending upon the mission. The most enduring cast members were Morris and Lupus who appeared in all seasons, while Graves appeared in all but the first season.

Morris's role was fairly significant - the first time a black actor appeared as a college-educated professional, and one of the only staring roles for a black actor in a drama at the time.
