Boldly, 1960's-style

Star Trek debut aired on US Television on September 8, 1966.

Creator Gene Roddenberry introduced audiences to a world that championed diversity, inclusion, acceptance, and hope.

I know there have been other Star Trek series, movies, cartoons, etc.

Yet my ❤️ will always belong to 'TOS': The Original Series.

Some of my favorite Dr. McCoy quotes:

"I'm a doctor, not a bricklayer!"
"I'm a doctor, not an escalator."
"I'm not a magician, Spock - just an old country doctor."
"I will not peddle flesh. I'm a physician."
"I'm a doctor, not a coal miner."
😹😹😹

  7. I forget whether it was SCTV or SNL but during a 'Star Trek' spoof, I recall Kirk asking McCoy to help someone who was in medical distress, and Bones yelled out, "Damn it, Jim, I'm a doctor, not a--- Oh, yeah, right..."

  8. I am a strong fan of TOS, and the other iterations as well but particularly TOS. I can about say the dialogue with them I have seen each one so often but...I, my sons as well are completely enamored of the series. We watch it every chance we get. When I still had Netflix I watched...binge watched, all of them including TNG, Voyager, DS9, you name it...I binged on it.

  13. I have a book called "Trek or Treat" with funny captions on stills from TOS. One of my favorites is Kirk with a mischievous smile on his face captioned, "Anyone for skinny dipping?"
