It's just hit home just how long ago TOS was, and just how old the actors are. Shatner's 83, Nichelle Nichols is 82, Walter Koenig is 78, and George Takei is 77. Hell, even Patrick Stewart is 74. Without getting too morbid, in 10-15 years most of them, if not all, will be gone.
That's so depressing.

My favorite Little Rascal is gone.........May the force be with you.
Sorry people, I really know him best from the Simpsons, far more meaningful to me than Star Trek, though I certainly know he was Spock.

I was just thinking the other day "He should mske a cameo in the new Star Wars movie just because." But this bums me out. He truly was a staple of American pop culture. I also really appreciated that he never seemed to take himself too seriously or came across having a big ego when he easily could've. May the force be with him.

"Are you sure it isn't the time for a colorful metaphor?" RIP Spock.
EDIT: I just remembered he was also the voice of the narrator in Seaman.

He was a huge part of my youth (all Star Trek and Star Wars were). Rest in piece, Mr. Spock.

Was his last non-cameo role Transformers: Dark of the Moon? Zambezia was his last film role, and he was a recurring guest star in Fringe in a number of episodes post-Dark of the Moon.
