Just wish she’d had the chance to sit in the big chair at least once…

She did, in an episode of Star Trek: The Animated Series.

If you’re a Trek fan and haven’t seen TAS, I recommend checking it out. The animation is terrible, but it’s quite well written. And as far as I know, it’s canonical.

Carry on.

I referred to her on TOS, not TAS. And Roddenberry said TAS mostly wasn’t canonical. Others later kinda sorta disagreed: Star Trek: The Animated Series | Memory Alpha | Fandom

    Not sure if I wanted to be her, wanted her to be my mother, or wanted to be Gabrielle, but damn, I wanted something.

NEXT: Hmmm, trying to get away from crushes and still be interesting…

  4. “Mirror, Mirror”: Star Trek: TOS.
    Surely not the first TV episode to feature an alternate universe, but it defined many of the now-familiar tropes - including goatee-wearing versions of the regular characters.

  6. “Normal Again:” Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Buffy is a schizophrenic young girl in a mental institution and not a vampire slayer. The ending leaves it up in the air which is real.

  7. “The Recombination Hypothesis”: The Big Bang Theory - In an imaginary sequence, Leonard asks Penny out on a real date which progresses to the two of them arguing constantly by day and having torrid sex by night, over and over until Sheldon snaps Leonard back to reality, and he decides to go ahead and ask Penny out, despite misgivings.

  8. “Ariadne”: Russian Doll - The whole show could qualify but the final episode of season 1 was absolutely brilliant.
