OKLAHOMA CITY Police say a fight over Star Trek and Star Wars led to an assault in the metro.
Jerome Dewayne Whyte, 23, was arrested July 1 on a complaint of assault and battery, possession of marijuana and outstanding Oklahoma County warrants.
Oklahoma City Police Department reports show that Whyte and another man were in the living room of an apartment in the 1400 block of NW 16 Street when they began arguing if Star Wars or Star Trek was better. The victim told police he became frustrated and stated "You're just a trick" before walking back to his room.

I’ll bet that they could’ve just as easily come to blows over original Doritos vs. cool ranch.

So sad. I could have broken it up by suggesting that Lost in Space was dramatically superior to both if I could outrun both of them.

Yes, I remember Sherry Jackson from that episode. Also, there was a gal that married Doug McClure in another episode. I think I saw her on Hawaii Five-O.

Wonder if they’ll invoke the “Chewbacca Defense”?

You have a valid point, but the point of my post is to provoke Star Wars fans :)

Bon Scott or Brian Johnson?
Just kidding, everyone knows it’s Bon.

Barbara Luna. She played Marlena Moreau in "Mirror, Mirror". Her only appearance in Star Trek TOS.
However, she was in a TON of shows in the '60s.

Yes, Barbara Luna. That’s her.
There was another one but I’ll have to think about the episode to see if I can remember it. I think it was one where Kirk thought one particular yeoman was his girlfriend.

I think it was one where Kirk thought one particular yeoman was his girlfriend. Oh....well...THAT narrows it down. NOT!
Though, it was probably Yeoman Janice Rand (Grace Lee Whitney). She always had a 'thing' for Kirk.

Nope, not Yeoman Rand. It’s more obscure - wasn’t one I saw a lot though it should obviously be in the rotation.

I can tell you she was a dark-haired brunette. Kinda redundant but....
And it is NOT the one where Marlena or whatever knows of the device that eliminates Kirk’s enemies.
