I'm so old, I remember when the original TV Star Trek's special effects consisted of...........
A plastic model of the Enterprise and monofilament fishing line!! Several times back when the original show was on in the late 60s I saw the lines bouncing the Enterprise. I remember once I saw two of the lines at the same time.
These were always seen for just a moment but you could see them well enough you knew what they were.
I guess they had to have some way to bounce the Enterprise during ion storms! 😂
From a plastic model to 7 of 9!! Star Trek has came a long way!! 😁

I'm so old I remember special effects needed play-doh clay to make all of the creatures that were shot one frame at a time to make them move around the screen!
They even moved slow enough you actually got a good look at them! Where today, things move so fast all you see is a blurr and don't blink or you will miss it!
I'm also so old that my first STD was a bad case of the COOTIES! 😲

Yes I do. Piloted by Steve Zodiac along with Venus and the robot. And don't forget the cool song at the end of the show. How about Stingray, The Thunderbirds, Capt. Scarlett, remember those shows?
