- Thread starter Commander Richard
- Start date
Star Wars Imperial rank insignia are all over the place, and even the notoriously hardcore SW fanbase just shrugged their shoulders on thatOr we could just go all meta and acknowledge that these were pilot and early episodes of the show, and the showrunners didn't have it all figured out yet, and quit trying to shoehorn every little consistency into an in-world explanation.
And before anyone asks, yes, I've been around the board a while.
Shaw: No.
I have this gut feeling that Bartel might not survive this season. I could be wrong.
And even aboard the Enterprise during DSC season 2!
Speaking of uniform colour oddities: the casualty screen from the original Rigel VII mission shows two crewmembers in red, and one in blue. The person identified as "science specialist" was not the one in blue!
Engineering is a science.
And in the second TOS pilot episode Spock - the science officer - wore a Command color tunic.
Yes. I mentioned it twice in two pages of the same thread. BOW BEFORE MY HERCULEAN NERDDOM.

Just ask Lt. Masters

One them is Number One, so her tunic is correct. Other must be a Command officer doing their mandatory rotation at Nav/Ops.And even aboard the Enterprise during DSC season 2!

The Odyssey is a fun read. It's very much an adventure story. But the Illiad and the Aeneid are boring AF.It’s quite good. I liked it better than the Iliad (and not because it’s shorter…well, not only
We read it in High School as part of a class called "Fantasy, Science Fiction and the Future". It was paired with 2001: A Space Odyssey. Also in the syllabus, the Hobbit and the Left Hand of Darkness.

Better be blue or the canonistas will have a fit.
Sulu just better not show up. Save someone for TOS, for crissake!
Don't worry. It's Walter Sulu, the astrophysicist. Hikaru's cousin.
One thing I find interesting about this episode is that although it's ostensibly a pretty standard 'Everyone is afflicted with a strange ailment' episode, it's the first one since maybe Naked Now where there isn't a member of the crew who's magically immune to it. No android, no Borg, no hologram, no changeling, nobody to be the sole crew member who can save them after everybody else is long gone, they have to work through it while totally in its clutches.

Funny you should mention that. One of the digital documents created for "Ad Astra Per Aspera" (not sure if it ever appeared on screen or not) indicated that Lieutenant Amin (the character on the left in that image, IIRC) was the records officer of the Enterprise. That is, the same job as Ben Finney in TOS, who wore a command division uniform.
Do you work for the show?
