My dad gave me the love of star trek. I watch it today with enthusiasm and dad in my heart
-
33 years after this airing it is still going strong.

Dr. McCoy was always my favorite from TOS. It's an absolute treat to be able to see this now. I wish I had known about it sooner.

I grew up with ST-TOS, followed all the sequel and prequel series and now, more than half a century later, in this world that is falling apart, I still believe the atmosphere from Star Trek could one day become a real possibility. The power of Roddenberry's vision is truly awesome. I almost feel like Lt. Barkley: whenever I'm tired, sad or demoralized, I immerse in one or two randomly chosen episodes of ST (TOS-TNG-Voy) and it never fails to lift my spirit. Thank you for this emotional encounter with Bones, I enjoyed it thoroughly.

Gods above and below, but I miss that man...De Kelley's "Bones" McCoy was always the character I most identified with in TOS—his rock-solid decency, his passionate championing of humanity over technology, his humor, his dedication to his profession and to caring for patients regardless of species, color or appearance. He does a great job in this video, even if he is delivering lines written for him.

The part with the doors. "I'll be damned." 😂

60 years old and still can't help but click on anything having to do with the Original.

Making a point that the guy is “now 70.” Today, we have Bill Shatner at over 90 doing projects for History Channel. Back then, we were seeing it was a surge of success among the older generation. Today those people youngsters comparatively speaking.

I can't believe TV used to look like this.
-
McCoy, Leonard H. Played by DeForest Kelley was my favourite character in all of the Star Trek franchise. He was superb.
-
DeForest Kelly will always be a legend and he will always be Star Trek. Sad to watch now knowing what’s fate is coming to him, he will always be fondly remembered into the 23rd 24th century and beyond. RIP DeForest.

8:19 The TNG sickbay actually is Dr. McCoy's sickbay from the Star Trek movies. At the end of the sickbay "tour" they go out the rarely-used door on the wall next to the large LCARS panel.

DeForest Kelley was a fascinating character actor. I remember seeing him in the movie Gun Fight at the OK Corral with Burt Lancaster. He fit perfectly as the Country style doctor on Star Trek the original series. I always enjoyed his banter between DeForest Kelley's doctor and with Leonard Nemoy as Mr. Spock.

And here we are, nearly 35 years since this video was "new" news. Back when I was 10 years old, my dad and I would fight over our single family B&W television because I wanted to watch STOS and he loved Hee Haw! which were broadcast at the same time. I remember him saying "That weirdo space shit won't even last one season!" I finally learned just to nod my head in agreement and wait for him to sack out on the couch which typically took about two minutes if I kept my mouth shut. Time to turn the channel! RIP dad!

As great as TOS proved to be, TNG proved to be the greatest sci-fi / fantasy TV show ever produced

This new Star Trek show looks pretty good. I'll have to check my TV Guide to find out when it airs. Maybe have to set my VCR to tape it if I'm not home. Anyway, I gotta go buy some Sunny-Delight and a few Super Soaker 30s and 50s for the pool party this weekend.

It's ironic that in real life, Deforest Kelly wanted to be a Doctor, and now he's immortalized as playing one. RIP Bones.

I've had the honor of meeting most of the original ST cast and a number of the NG cast. Susan Woo and Barbara March (the Klingon sisters) were fun to be around.

Thank you for this, i miss these shows and their hopeful messages.

It's amazing that, today, people at home can generate more sophisticated and realistic cgi on a common home computer.
