Live Long And Prosper : RIP Mr. Spock
Feb 28, 2015 13:45:18 #
Leonard Nimoy was born to play the role of Spock.
As a boy in my little Texas hometown, one of my favorite after school passtimes was to journey along with the USS Enterprise to worlds where no man has gone before.
Mr. Spock was an inspirational character and the show would not have enjoyed the success it did without him.
Rest in peace Mr. Spock, and to all on OPP, both friends and adversaries ; Live Long And Prosper.

Totally agree. I'm sad he's gone. A truly iconic actor. Amazing how the original Star Trek episodes from the 60's still hold up today.
I was and am a big fan of Next Generation too, but watching those shows now in syndication, I'm amazed at how nauseatingly liberal they are. I can hardly get through an episode now without saying, "Oh please!" out loud at the television. :)

The others are:
Majel Barrett, DeForest Kelley, Malachi Throne, James Doohan, Mark Lenard, Jeffrey H****r, William Windom, William Campbell, Roger C. Carmel, Susan Oliver, Celia Lovsky, Persis Khambatta, Meg Wyllie, Paul Carr, Michael Strong, James Gregory, Ricardo Montalban, Frank Overton, Jill Ireland, Bart La Rue, Vic Perrin, Liam Sullivan, Jane Wyatt, Charles Napier,

Although not a character, you missed the person who if not for him, none of this would have been possible...creator Gene Rodenberry.
