On "Sealab 2021", the station's engineer was voiced by an actor who has had a very tumultuous career. His great success playing a motorcycle police officer was followed by virtual obscurity. This actor was seemingly resurrected in Latin soap operas, otherwise known as telenovelas. Today, he can be found everywhere from reality shows to game shows to voiceover work. Who is he?
