my absolute favourite thing about all the old star trek series is when the ship unexpectedly collides with something and, due to the lack of sophisticated special effects available at the time, everyone just throws themselves across the set as dramatically as possible
Wait, isn’t there stabilised gifs of these shots floating around?

Is Uhura just like grinning like a dork in the last one?
Nerdy Fact #1501: The producers of Star Trek included scenes of overt sexuality to deflect the focus of NBC’s Broadcast Standards Office censors from other controversial aspects in certain episodes, like blatant allegories of the Vietnam war and racism.
listen tos? Spirk. All the way. It’s in the stars and the screens.
aos? They were trying to veer so hardcore from spirk that it became spones instead. Just roll with me on this one. AOS is Spones central, and the friendship aspect of TOS spirk is there, but Spones is the relationship.
