    Is there anybody here who can enlighten me on why, in certain scenes, light would be shone upon an actor’s eyes in TOS? I believe they stopped that during the first season.

          Eye lights were common back in the day because film stocks were extremely slow (needed a lot of light to expose properly). It’s always important to ensure eyes are well lit, since they’re so important for expression, even if it’s a bit overdone here.

    This is the best Trek meme I’ve seen in a long time. I need a series of memes like this.

    lol TOS needs a deadpan spoof of ‘Airplane’ or ‘Police Squad!’ standards

    I’m going to tell you something I’ve kept to myself all of these years. I was in the war, Medical Corps. One night they brought in a badly wounded pilot from one of the raids. He looked at me and said, “Doc, the odds were against us up there, but we went in anyway. I’m glad. Captain made the right decision.” The pilot’s name was George Zip.

    George Zip said that?

    Yes, he looked at me and said, “Doc,” he said, “Some time, when the crew is up against it, and the breaks are beating the boys, tell 'em to get out there and give it all they’ve got. And win just one for the Zipper. I don’t know where I’ll be then Doc, he said. But I won’t smell too good, that’s for sure.”
