that can’t possibly be the first time a super-cut of “He’s Dead Jim” has been made…
Honestly, these ‘supercuts’ would be so much better if they cut out all the context, and tightly edited strictly to the words “He’s dead, Jim” or “I’m a doctor not a [bricklayer]”.
Came for this, and now I can get back to work well pleased with fond memories of Doctor Demento.
Huh. That’s an animated gif on my phone.
I had that on a Dr. Demento album back in the day! Good times, man!
The NY Post when DeForest Kelley died:
Ah! It cut off at my favorite joke with the malfunctioning elevator!
CAPT. JERK: Elevator, transporter room.
ELEVATOR: I’m fine, how are you?
CAPT. JERK: No, elevator- transporter room.
ELEVATOR: I’m fine, how are you?
CAPT. JERK: ELEVATOR, I SAID TRANSPORTER ROOM!
ELEVATOR: I’m fine, how are you?
CAPT JERK: Oh, forget it!
I’m surprised there are not more Red Shirts involved.
According to Memory Alpha, "DeForest Kelley refused to say the line after Spock’s sacrifice in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. He felt that it would make the audience laugh, which was inappropriate for such a serious scene.
If that’s true then he has more awareness than the director, the entire crew, and the writers. He’s completely right.
I always liked the Red Dwarf variant: They're Dead, Dave - Red Dwarf - BBC - YouTube
