What a trailblazer. At a time when there were few or no strong black women characters on TV, she was there on the bridge of the USS Enterprise, and doing vital work. And IIRC she shared the first interracial kiss with JTK
No one knew how to treat a lady quite like James T Kirk

Not sure whether this guy deserves a mention to be honest, sounds like he was an absolute fuckstain.
I always read articles about him with fascination though.

Not next to Nichelle Nichols and Bill Russell he doesn't!!!!

An acknowledgement that a diude who noone is going to mourn has left us is not a bad thing.

Pakman Senior used to play tennis with his dad, Cliff, who was a pretty decent bloke.

NZ Herald story: Remembering David Leggat: A Kiwi sports writer of unforgettable charisma
Quite a few tweets along these lines too:

@Donsteppa that is super sad. Enjoyed his writing and he was an OG of NZ sports journalism. Really feel for his family and colleagues.

It's easy to forget how old some of the TV stars we watched as a child now are. William Shatner is 91!
Yeah sad that this era of TV stars are dwindling. You look at shows like the A team, Dukes of Hazzard, Knight Rider and of course Magnum PI and realise that while they’re dated and incredibly cheesy it really was a magic era of TV.
I wouldn’t have watched Magnum PI in close to 30 years but still got a bit sad reading TC had passed.

The new Magnum PI appears to be a giant woke shower. The old one was the boss

Shameless name drop - I had the privilege of meeting ONJ a couple of years ago in LA. It was at a big fancy dinner/event, but she was down to earth, very kind and quite talkative. There were plenty of celebs at the event - actors, singers - but she got the biggest cheer when her name was mentioned. I saw other celebs in awe of her and like fans when they saw her.

That’s even better than the time @jegga had lunch with Liam Squire, Joe Moody, Jerome Kaino and Damien McKenzie.

Nothing is better than that. Not even the time I was chatting with Hugh Grant on the phone when he was organising a game of tennis with my employer - and I could hear Liz in the background.
