Not Going To Be As Enjoyable Watching TOS With Leonard Nimoy Gone

[BoredShipCapt'n]

His work will be entertaining generations yet to be born, who will never have known him when he was alive. If that's not immortality for an actor, what is?

 

[TRON JA307020]

I'll say what I said over in another thread about his passing, which is that while I was watching The Trouble with Tribbles (easily one of my favorite episodes), I realized that while it hurt to see Spock onscreen, it didn't bother me to see McCoy, or Scotty, because I had come to terms with De and Jimmy's passing. So, too, I will come to terms with Leonard's passing and, god help me, Bill's when his time comes.

I love these people. These are my friends, and even though they're gone, they're not forgotten, and so I feel that every time I watch an episode, I am celebrating their memory, because I get to see them hale and healthy, in their glory days of youth and when their lives were full. So while it hurts for the moment, the pain will pass, and only the joy will remain.

Well said. I watched a 3 episodes about 2 days after Leonard dies. It was strange and sad but I was reminded just how great he was in the role even if the episode didn't center around him.
