    Being a lurker on Risa is like being a lower decks crew member of a major ship … you just go about your day like normal and most of the time it’s pretty dull and normal. Then every once in a while the entire crew gets all excited because we’re getting drawn into some disastrous event that the main crew all know about but those of us at the bottom are just watching the fireworks and things blowing up and the ship moving around all over the freaking place … then by the time we understand what just happened and we start talking about it … it’s all over and we’re back to flying quietly again.

        Such a fetching couple.

        And yes, I am read/willing to not only post Mudd memes, but to feature the happy couple in some Migleemo-Hemmer supported therapy.

            Stella Grimes and her father appear briefly in “Magic to Make the Sanest Man Go Mad.”

            It’s the only Discovery season one episode that stands on its own without the serialization, although Mudd himself appears in an earlier one. He also is the focus of a wonderful Short Trek written my Mike McMahan. All strongly recommended.

      I will never forget this random Irishman’s name now, that’s for sure. Every TOS rewatch I ever do is going to have a "Hey, it’s Kevin!"moment moving forward.

      Or out of transporters, like the time I beamed a box of Leola root on board but due to a solar flare they materialised as sentient organisms. Several of the crew had to be given mental health leave afterwards.

      We should really give him his 15 minutes.

      I watched an episode with him in it last night, and I honestly wondered if he even had a name, because Kirk kept calling him “helmsman”

        Yep. Kyle at the helm, Kyle in engineering, Kyle in security. Kyle could do it all.
