I remember sitting in the dayroom down at Robbins AFB waiting on overseas orders watching ST with the guys. We really liked all the different women Kirkout (that’s what he always said “Kirk, out”) was in quarters with and them showing him buttoning his tunic back up. These were all original first-showings.

It wasn't about the haggling over Quatloos:

Or the finger James Doohan lost on D-Day:

Or the action episodes:

The Doomsday Machine? We called it “the ice cream cone.” Either way, despite the cheap special effects by today’s standards, it was the best action episode and had me glued to the sofa when it first aired on my 7th birthday.

Very beautiful that one in the green and blue (actress Sherry Jackson). She was also in an episode of Lost In Space, from the first season when it was in black & white. The episode, believe it or not, was about space werewolves. It was titled 'Space Croppers'.
