My Favorite Things About Star Trek (TOS)

-all the ways they avoided saying “sex” -eyebrows -cats turned into sexy ladies on two separate occasions -the ensign that Chekov was hitting on in “The Apple” that beat the shit out of two grown men -Uhura -“how many times can we reuse this set before they notice?” -“how many times can we reuse this actor before they notice?” -the spray painted pipes glued to plywood, glued to the walls to make them look more legit -all aliens wear go-go boots -“lieutenant please call all the ship’s most important personnel for beam down to this hostile planet” -everyone else has like an actual shirt under their uniform but Kirks just got a little black collar sewn into his uniform so that when it gets ripped we get to see his chest -every ship had its own insignia and this is never mentioned in any of the other series (not even Enterprise as far as I know) -all the other captains are assholes, all of them -“Fear not fair maiden!”, “Sorry neither.” -the prime directive is more a suggestion than a rule

obviously it’s completely tragic that sam kirk died and jim was too late to save him but i snorted so hard when they rolled him over and it was just william shatner wearing a fake moustache

Was he literally the only person you could find to play a dead blonde man? You legit did not have to do that but it’s funnier that you did.

Their budget was $12 and a single bag of instant coffee, bless them
