I've heard that she'd been getting a very rough deal from some of the producers too, who were probably a large part of why she was being made to wear a dress that was too small for her. Her family have said that they wanted her to be remembered as a conqueror of addiction, so that's what I'll be remembering her as. That and the hair.. wow. XD

she had to be among the most beautiful of all the actresses on TOS. unfortunate that she had severe personal issues to deal with.

Still, we straight guys, and probably more women than you'd think appreciate that she was put in that too small of a dress! :lol:

Oh I'm definitely not complaining about short dresses in general! I just heard that they dressed her in outfits that were too small, like.. everywhere, so she had to go on diet pills to fit into them. :(

That's to be sure. Roddenberry was pretty much force fed the too short dresses by the network; in the original pilot, Pike's female Number One dressed in pants, like the guys.
