One of the brilliant aspects of Matt Jefferie's original Enterprise bridge design has never been replicated. He elevated the captain's chair, so when someone stood in the pit next to it, they'd be at eye-level with Kirk. Love the SNW, TOS film, and Kelvin bridges, but all miss this detail.

Dave Cockrum's sense of design and style is so exceptional it remains timeless despite all the decades that have passed. Many of his designs are in the top 10 superhero/villain outfits of all time.

LT. GRABES (INTERCOM)
Captain to the bridge! All decks, alert!
CAPTAIN MADISON lifts himself up and wanders to a view screen. He flicks the screen on and a squints at the bizarrely fresh and mildly pleased face of LT. GRABES. 
CAPTAIN MADISON
What the hell’s going on GRABES?
LT. GRABES 
We’ve spotted an enemy vessel, Sir. It appears to be disabled.
CAPTAIN MADISON
I’m on my way.EXT. DEEP SPACE
The Stalwart approaches a drifting Bird of Prey. Sparks softly vent from a hole in its midsection. 
INT. STALWART BRIDGE
The turbolift doors open and CAPTAIN MADISON and LT. COMMANDER JORDAN step out. They take their positions as the night shift vacates.
CAPTAIN MADISON
Status report, Mr. Grabes.
LT. GRABES
The Romulan vessel is damaged and adrift, Captain. It’s engineering section is exposed to space. Several heat signs aboard indicate survivors. Readings show they have enough battery power for minimal life-support.CAPTAIN MADISON (MUTTERING TO HIMSELF)
We’ve never seen a Romulan ship this close up that wasn’t firing on us or blowing itself up. (ALOUD TO JORDAN) You’re thoughts, Commander?
LT. COMMANDER JORDAN turns to face CAPTAIN MADISON.
LT. COMMANDER JORDAN
Could be a trap, sir. In four years of war no Earth vessel has ever experienced a situation like this.
CAPTAIN MADISON clasps his hands and rests his chin on them. He looks intently at the view screen.
CAPTAIN MADISON
Without warp drive a sneak attack would be impossible. We’d see them coming a light year away.LT. COMMANDER JORDAN
It could be a suicide mission. Wait for us to get close and then self-destruct taking us with them.
LT. GRABES
That’s definitely a possibility, sir. But they would require one hell of a power build up on very short notice. Their fusion reactors are cold.
LT. COMMANDER JORDAN
(TO GRABES SMILING) If that’s the case then we have ourselves a real prize! (TO MADISON) A Romulan ship with real Romulans on board. Even dead we’d finally get a look at them face to face.
CAPTAIN MADISON stares at the view screen even more intently. His eyes squint in deep thought. We see the Romulan ship grow larger in the viewer, her damage becoming more apparent.

The thrid season really made due with the severly cut and hamstrung budget. Even though the fabulous Jerry Finnerman was gone, the cinematography did some experimental stuff. It's this type of stuff that makes TOS more visually interesting than any Trek show after.

people always talk about great art (subjective) in terms of how much it's worth or how much it sold for. meaning everyone involved with the story, from the sellers to the buyers to the reporters, has no fucking clue what art is for or what makes it great.

Ok, I keep getting asked about how to complain about Kimmel.
The best way to complain that will have the biggest impact?
See if you have a Sinclair or nexstar station in your area.
2. Watch the local newscast tonight or some time this week.
3. Note the companies that bought tv adverts.
4. Call them and let them know you will boycott them until they quit supporting that media company.
Trust me. I worked in tv for 45 years.
Nothing you do will have greater impact.
Nothing.
