The fantastic Lt. Uhura...

[Keith1701]

Probably her most memorable moment is when she diverts Sulu's attention during "Mirror, Mirror".

I agree

She was amazing in The Man Trap and her singing of "Beyond Antares" in Conscience of the King is extremely beautiful. She was also a high point in The Trouble With Tribbles. Her snapping at Kirk's impatience in The Naked Time, followed by her little smile after Kirk apologizes was sublime. I always liked the character. Her beauty and voice were well matched by her acting ability. It's a shame she was so under utilized.

I've always loved that scene in The Naked Time where she snaps at Kirk.

Me too.

Another good Uhura moment is in "Who Mourns for Adonis?", when, wearing workman's coveralls, she's shown working underneath the bridge communications console to rig a doubletalk-bypass circuit. We see that she's a skilled technician, not just a glorified switchboard operator.

She also manned the navigation console occasionally.

^ I got seasons 1 and 2 last month, so some of the dialogue is still fresh for me.

I also liked that she got a lot to do in "Gamesters of Triskelion", but wish they would have put her in more combat scenes. And she needed one of those shiny suits like Shahna was wearing.

Indeed!

As much as Angelique Pettyjohn wowed the viewers (and the production team) I'm sure Nichelle Nichols would have made history for many boys becoming men, and many men not being able to stand for quite awhile...

Probably her most memorable moment is when she diverts Sulu's attention during "Mirror, Mirror".

I'm sure she diverted the attention of many male - and possibly female - viewers as well during that episode. (And, still does for those of us men and women who revisit that episode!)
