Everyone knows the Klingons were colorblind..
But it’s something they would rarely admit in public!
The red shirts were invented by the Brits in the 1700s, who not only dressed their troops in red coats, they made them wear a white cross on their chests just in case the enemy were not good shots and needed a target to shoot at
Wait a min…. Star Trek wasn’t around in the 1700s!
Donna raises a great point.I never understood the red, made those guys a total target, especially to the flowers that spewed sleep-inducing pollen.
Watching a Red Coat faint after that sleep-inducing pollen is still one of the greatest moments in celluloid history.
“Spock, Bones, and you three Ensign Extras, meet me in the transporter room.”
The quickest acting gig ever!
Did you ever notice how you have translated that knowledge to every TV show and movie you watch now? Uh oh. There’s the extraneous guy like in Star Trek!!! This post had everyone in my house rolling with laughter!
Your house sounds perfect!
That landing party is the kiss of death. Even if I were assigned to the security detail, I would keep a spare shirt of another color.
It must be horrible for the actor who finally lands a part in Star Trek only to realise that the part you’re playing is a Red Shirt! A quick gig, if ever there was one!
