Ricardo Montalban was an American actor. He appeared as his Fantasy Island character, Mr. Roarke, in the Season Seven episode, "Cancelled", as one of Najix's forms. Montalban's character Khan from the TV show Star Trek and the film Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan appeared in the Imaginationland trilogy. He also appeared among the dead celebrities in "Dead Celebrities".
He is also referenced via a 34-Year-Old Asian Man Who Looks Strikingly Similar to Ricardo Montalbán in "Roger Ebert Should Lay off the Fatty Foods".

Ricardo has several facial wrinkles as well as an abnormally large nose. In "Cancelled" he appeared in a white suit and black tie. In "Imaginationland", he appeared in a brown shirt with most of his chest exposed, carrying a bloody sword.
Personality[]
The Ricardo in "Cancelled" and the Ricardo in "Imaginationland" were likely two different people, the one in "Cancelled" being one of Najix's forms, and the one in "Imaginationland" being one of Ricardo's characters, Khan from Star Trek. They will be listed under separate headers to prevent any confusion.
"Cancelled"[]
The Ricardo shown here was one of the alien forms, portraying his Fantasy Island character Mr. Roarke, with his assistant Tattoo (Hervé Villechaize) also being with him.
"Imaginationland"[]
He was one of the evil characters of Imaginationland, so, we can assume that he, along with the rest of the evil imaginary characters wanted to take over Imaginationland.
