U is for Uhura

 U is for Uhura. Lieutenant Nyota Uhura is a multitalented officer in communications and technology which gives her the skill to operate Spocks Science Station, navigation and even command of the USS Enterprise NCC 1701. Uhura is remembered best for opening hailing frequencies with many ships, aliens and planets. Here she is having a nice friendly chat with some Klingons. Can you guess which Star Trek movie? Heres a hint, only two actresses played Uhura - Nichelle Nichols and Zoe Saldana, and a clip from the film.

T is for Thrilling

T is for Thrilling. Its only fitting we give BlogMan  a shout out. I'm sure many of us will appreciate Blogman who rolled out the A to Z challenge which is now an annual blogverse event for talented bloggers. . 

In which Star Trek movie does Kirk mention Iowa as his home town?

Do you get the rhythm of life setting the pace as we hurtle around the sun?

High fives for making A to Z so! Thanks Blogman, "- Life is a marathon, run, fly, feet on the street -  live long and prosper. 

Star Trek Superstar

S is for Star Trek Superstar. Kelsey Grammer comes in at no 7 on ranker , remember him! Superstar Frasier in Cheers. Cheers and Star Trek, two popular high profile Paramount shows watched every week way back in the 80's and 90's, so its hardly surprising actors crossed over from one show to another. Captain Morgan Bateson of Starfleets U.S.S. Bozeman starred in "Cause and Effect." 

Kelsey Grammer appeared in the 5th season of Star Trek TNG. The fact is Frasier phoned in Batemans TNG performance so lets not exaggerate here. Bateman is seated on the Bozeman bridge 'cos like what you're looking at is mostly CGI! (hmmm) but entertaining and fun right?  (at least he's not under the bridge)
