Just yesterday I was telling a friend I was watching Land of the Lost (from the 70s) on Tubi and noticed Walter Koenig was the writer for one of the episodes (maybe more?). Of course, he'll always be Pavel Chekov in my heart. Godspeed.
My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.
