She did live to 85.  That's a pretty full life, and she will be remembered for a very long time.

Spock isn't really dead. He transported away and now took her with him.

I think she got turned into one of those small cubes and was crushed, wasn't she?

No, she was LT Rand in the last ST movie with the original cast.

She had led a pretty rough life for a while after Star Trek. I'm sort of surprised she lived that long.

Sad story.

The original Star Trek producers treated her like dog crap.

Never really watched the show.  But happy to hear that she overcame her trouble, and was able to help others.  Respect for that.

She ended up as one of Sulu's officers on Excelsior.

She never had enough screen time to suit me. RIP dear.


Now for a Star Trek tech question.

When I was watching the show as a young teen in the early 70s I automatically "knew" that clipboard she always handed Kirk was more than just your run of the mill aluminum clip/storage board. I just knew it was some type of electronic gizmo. Imagine my surprise when I bought the original series on dvd a few years ago and caught it.

I envisioned modern electronic tablets in the early 70s!

Too bad I wasn't bright enough to make them a reality.

I think the all the booze he consumes is embalming / preserving him or something and he just keeps on ticking.

Please, that was the least of the tech shown.

cell phones/push to talk
floppy disk/usb or removable media in general
universal translator-google has had it for a year or so now.
and now hopefully warp drive.

just missing the phasers and transporters/disenigrators

Unless you're allergic to it. Then you'll have to settle for some antique glasses.

He is fat and red faced, that is not a good sign... you see him in short commercials, you don't see when he collapses in the chair after one take

Saw his live one man show about a year ago. He bounced around the stage and didn't stop moving or talking for 90 minutes.  Pretty good for anyone, much less someone his age.

Go watch 2001 - in the  60's they predicted a multi-media tablet, i.e.the iPad. (circa 1968)

Sad.  If not for the substance abuse problems, it would have been interesting to see how the Kirk/Rand dynamic would have developed over time.



Still, it gave Kirk the freedom to bang lots more chicks, so there's that.

This distasteful joke was brought to you by the twelve year old me.  I apologize for his behavior.

Hmm...I've seen it, and have it, but it doesn't stick out in my mind. Have to give it a spin soon I guess.

No. Two completely different actresses playing two completely different characters.

Roddenberry's, I can't remember how she spells her name though, was also the voice of the ship's computer in The Next Generation. Maybe also TOS but I don't remember for sure.

Majel Barret-Roddenbery. She also played Lxwana Troi, Deanna Troi's exceptionally annoying mother on ST:TNG.
