Gold-Uniform Uhura vs. Red-Uniform Uhura

Well, there's that angle, too. But don't forget that Majel had a temper, and the less often one got her angry, the easier life was. And if there was one thing GR always strove for, was to avoid fights as often as possible, by whatever means necessary, usually by telling someone just what they wanted to hear. Accuracy notwithstanding.
 
I always wondered if she was holding her abs taut during that episode. They seem too awesomely well-defined, especially for a zaftig woman such as herself. However, with her history as a singer and dancer, it might well have been her natural posture.

If it wasn't her natural posture, it must have been hard to hold it in during all the scenes she shot, while acting at the same time.

Interesting topic to ponder...

Stop putting those kind of ideas in my head. It was real I tell you, real!!
 
LOL!!! Yes, her uniform choice was probably a section retcon..... but.... she was going to quit TOS after the first season anyway because of her notoriety. Roddenberry asked her to stay because of HOW her character fit in to the theme he wanted to tell, but she told him she would think about it over the weekend.

That same weekend, she went to a Civil Rights fundraiser for MLK. Was approached by him and was told she was an inspiration for him, and he was one of his greatest fans.....

She stayed on TOS, instead of going to Broadway because of that. The rest is history..... and the sexiest Red Mirror uniform, and the 5th (LOL@!) nationally broadcast interracial kiss on television!!

Hello newcomer @Mv1609. Welcome. FYI, this thread has been inert and collecting dust for just shy of 8 years. You probably haven't reviewed the board rules (this is a link to them), but there's one that says...

- Resurrecting dead threads. If you find a thread that has not had a post in it in over a year, don't post in it. Start a new thread instead. You can, if necessary, link back to the old thread if something crucial is in the thread.​

Lots of reasons for that. Ask moderator @1001001 if you have any questions. But in the meantime it's useful to look at the posting date at the bottom of the last post before replying.
 
Thank you Maurice.

Greetings MV1609. Yes please be sure to familiarize yourself with the posting rules here.

Enjoy.
