which Hawaii Five-O episode has Star Trek bridge SFX?

[KirkPicard]

The 70s sitcom "Quark" evidently utilized many sound effects from the TOS library.

Well, sure, it was a Trek/Wars spoof!

The pilot movie "Cocoon" uses what sounds like the communicator sound effects and IIRC the bridge sounds are in the fourth season episode, a two-parter called "The Ninety-Second War." In the latter, McGarrett is in a secret military installation in Diamond Head and that, I believe, is where the bridge sounds are heard.

I think...

The naval vessel episode is called "Follow the White Brick Road", also from the fourth season. There are other naval episodes later in Five-O's run but I haven't seen them yet. One's an eighth season episode with Jack Cassidy...IIRC

Memory isn't what it used to be...

Several episodes of G1 Transformers use sound effects from TOS (and Star Wars).

The pilot movie, "Cocoon."

He-Man used tons of Trek sound FX, presumably because they'd become a part of Filmation's sound library with the production of the animated Trek. Energy weapons used the photon torpedo effect. Energy beams used the hand-phaser effect. Portals just used the transporter sound. Buttons were just like buttons on Trek. Computers used the Enterprise bridge sound. Doors "whooshed" just like doors on the Enterprise.

Thanks, but not quite. Although the Five-O pilot has the bridge sound from The Cage, the one I'm referring to is the regular bridge sound heard throughout TOS (not the ones used in TOS series pilots). All I can remember is that the Five-O episode was quite a bit later, probably four or five years into the series.

I didn't know this about Hawaii Five-O, thanks for the information.

It may be the one when McGarrett investigates the death of his sister's child, in Los Angeles no less. The 'scam' artist is played by the Female Romulan commander from ENTERPRISE INCIDENT as well...

Twilight Zone episodes like "Third From The Sun" and "Execution" use the bridge sound effects long before Star Trek was a speck in Roddenberry's eye.

I picked out those EFXs too. Interesting to note that things we think of as "Trek" were not developed for Trek but something else.

 

[Hober Mallow]

Wasn't it the sound FX guy on the new movie who found out the photon torpedo sound was first used in a sitcom?

Going by this, it's even older -- no one seems to be sure exactly how old:

EGM: And the Photon Torpedoes?

BB: That sound can be traced back to the Paramount Pictures library; it even turns up in some 1940s Bob Hope comedies, so no one can say for sure how it was created. My ears tell me that it was an impact on a spring, maybe picked up with a contact mic. I reproduced mine using a very long spring, capping it and putting a contact mic on it, and combining that with a cannon blast.

Here's one that has stumped me for years. I was watching Hawaii Five-O one time when all of a sudden I started hearing the Enterprise bridge sound. No, it wasn't the Five-O pilot as this has the bridge sound from The Cage, it was an episode that featured the bridge sound most commonly heard throughout TOS. All I can remember is that McGarrett went below deck on a ship or something and they were looking at a radar, some kind of instrument anyway. There was a lot of instrumentation in the scene with the Enterprise bridge sound throughout the scene. Any idea of which Five-O episode this was?

The episode is "The Deserter," from Season 8. Incidentally, two episodes after George Takei guest starred in "Death's Name is Sam."

This thread will be locked for its age now, but I'm just going to say it: the TOS bridge sound was also used in the TV movie Strange New World. It occurs very early on, aboard the spacecraft. It was directed by Robert Butler ("The Cage"), and based on Roddenberry's ideas for Genesis II and Planet Earth.

 

[Poltargyst]

Ooooh, you're in trouble!

 

[Qonundrum]

Also, I'm pretty sure all or most of the TOS sound effects pre-existed in somebody's SFX library. I know I've heard some of them in other, earlier shows.

Even later ones. By 1984, some of the same iconic sounds would be heard on some NBC shows. "V: The Final Battle" slipped in a cue. I'm more than certain, or the memory cheats, that "Knight Rider" and "Remington Steele" might have used one or two TOS cues too. V:TFB definitely had, with the human's "counterfeit alien ID card maker" gadget in part one...

Oh, Lord....apropos in so many ways.

Jack Lord was nearly cast as Kirk before the Shat came aboard!

Quite true as I found out several years ago. I believe the fire at Paramount destroyed a portion of the Trek effects they had as the CD release really contained less than half, but effects did show up in cartoons, prior and post movies and series as well.

I have copies of most of the sound effects. I acquired three 'volumes'.

 

[TrickyDickie]

Okay, here's an odd one:

Investigation Discovery, in documentaries about killers, seems to use what sounds like the transporter effect from TOS.

Now, now. No one's in trouble.
