    It’s simple. You, Kirk, Chekov, and Bones go on an away mission. Only they come back.

    Those Old Scientists sure loved to throw security at every problem and hope they have enough bodies to drown whatever is threatening them.

    I remember when Spike TV was running episodes of TOS with a little trivia ticker and one of the recurring ones was “red shirt death count.”

    It never got as high as I would have thought from my dad and other older trekkies joking about it. But I could imagine seeing the uniform color change in TNG after years of TOS and thinking they were gonna kill off Picard and Riker.

      So they did a “Pop Up Video” version of Trek? Oh, man. I’ve got to explore this idea sometime.

          Believe me, I tried to find a higher quality image. Funny thing is, it’s actually a reasonably large file, but grabbed from a shit source.

    They seem ok to me. Their motto is even in Klingon: “Heghlu’meH QaQ jajvam!”

    There’s something about this company that I don’t trust…

    You mean other than the spokesmodel kinda looking like Hillary Clinton was given a happiness transplant and a sacrificial lamb uniform?

    I feel like it’s too close to Redcoats, and I expect them to try to quarter in my house and tax me without representation.
