Sad news Star Trek geeks

Yeah, sometimes it's tough to separate the work from the person. Some awful people have created great things. Roddenbury deserves full credit for kicking off Star Trek and establishing the basic world in which it functioned.

After that? IMO, All things Star Trek would have been better if he'd voluntarily walked away from it soon after birthing it but, hey, he had a profitable (for several definitions of the word) franchise on his hands so he rode it way too hard for way too long.

Agreed with everything. And let's not forget that grade A bitch Lucille Ball deserves mega credit for not letting Star Trek die as a pilot episode.

Sorry I dissapointed you. I got into a bad motorcycle accident a few months ago and am still getting back into the swing of things. I'm working hard every day to regain my former boistrous iconoclasm and lack of tasteful dialogue.

Maybe your accident was a sign of pissing off Karma and she decided to take you down a few notches.

I mean, there ain’t too many of ‘em around at least.

Well that's how I like it to stay!

The only thing I know about Star Trek - outside the original series and the first few movies - is that Leonard Nimoy was also a photographer with excellent skills. "The Full Body Project" which included his take on classic paintings is different, for example.

Don't forget his legacy of 60's folk-pop.

Hey wasn’t that guy who played Spock doing Uhura on the side?

Seems I read something years back about the interracial kiss scene it was Spock that was originally supposed to lay it on her.

But Shatner threw a fit about it & he got to do it instead.
