God I remember reruns of TOS on G4 where they would have like a side panel with counters for things that happened in the episode. “Spock says illogical” “Uhura panty shot”
I guess the one thing we “missed out on” (I say this sarcastically) is that the teardowns of screen-worn skants indicate that there’s kind of a half-underwear thing there.
The way that the TOS uniforms “worked” is that they seem to have just declared the Space Cheerleader Shorts as clothing instead of just underwear in much the same way that actual cheerleaders have and therefore it’s totally OK for the ladies to kick or crawl around in such a way to expose the Space Cheerleader Shorts.
And, like … damn, people. I thought that a fanservice-y 90s anime aimed at teenage boys had a lot of upskirt, then I watched TOS reruns.
But, because it was very quickly relegated to background characters only, we’ll never know if the skants were hiding a genuine advance in upskirt technology and only have Marina’s word to go on that they probably … weren’t.
Which, well, I think mostly I just wanted to say “genuine advance in upskirt technology” and so therefore I think it’s OK that the skants didn’t get used more in TNG.
“Gene Roddenberry’s vision” was usually an upskirt shot.
Which wasn’t helped by Berman.
Oh the short skirts were 100% Gene. Rick is the one with the catsuit fetish. He was the one who decided to shrink wrap Jeri Ryan.
Yeah. You might have been able to see what Marina was eating for lunch, but she and Denise Crosby didn’t need rescue oxygen.
