Reimers also made a memorable appearance in the TOS blooper reels. While filming his "viewscreen" appearance in TTWT, someone tossed a tribble to him. He caught it and, mimicking the famous Allstate logo, held it out and deadpanned, "You're in good hands with tribbles." :guffaw:

A class act. RIP, Ed.
