10 Minor Goofs You Never Noticed in Star Trek
Me-TV presents 10 Minor Goofs You Never Noticed in Star Trek the original series. Here are three of my favorites…
A WOODEN STARSHIP – “Errand of Mercy”
In the opening, as the Enterprise is attacked by a Klingon vessel, you can see that the floor behind Nimoy has not been painted. The bare wood is exposed on the elevated part of the bridge.
BATTEN DOWN THE BRIDGE! – “The Changeling”
In the prologue, when a green bolt of light slams into the Enterprise — Red alert! Here we get a taste of that classic disaster technique of shaking the camera as the cast flails around on set. However, it must have been a pretty hard blast, as the helm console lifts off the floor.
THEY HAVE A L.A. ON NEURAL, TOO? – “A Private Little War”
The gang is on the primative planet of Neural. In the final act, Nona is being attacked by some tribal toughs, who look a bit like Daniel Boone in pastel pajamas. She tries to use Kirk’s Phaser against her attackers. As they struggle, Los Angeles can be seen off in the distance in the smog.
