Pretty interesting costume Mork and Mindy connections to ST: TOS

[Jet Beetle]

First there's this one that seems to be a pretty well known wardrobe borrow -

But this is the one that surprised me.

The Star Trek:TOS "The Savage Curtain"/Mork & Mindy Connection! - YouTube

When Mork and Mindy go to Ork for their honeymoon, Mindy get arrested, the Orkan police uniforms are the STTMP Klingon uniforms. Robin Williams picked out his famous spacesuit it out of a paper bag in the paramount costume department.

Look here around the 9:30 mark

Good catches...makes sense. Didn't Shatner appear in a Kirk uniform in one scene? I suppose that might've been a leftover as well.

Nice Tholian Web helmet. Thank you for that.

Totally forgot about that. The Tholian Web helmet seems to be mated with a Naked Time enviroment suit.

Mork's jumpsuit is clearly the one from The Savage Curtain minus the silver triangle... However even the triangle has a Star Trek connection; it was supposed to identify the Engineering Department in the proposed second series "Star Trek Phase II":

Wow, I wonder if that's the same triangle for the Mork series jumpsuit. Happy Days didn't have black trim, but series version does.

I also wonder if the series version is an entirely new suit. The Happy Days one is surely a match to Colonel Green's, though.

On one of those Happy Days specials Gary Marshall said John Byner was who they originally wanted for Mork - the spacesuit was tailored to his size (he's only 5'6 so Williams was popping out of the thing - they built him a new one for his second appearance on Happy Days.

Just a tid bit - the black stripe added to his triangle was some kind of achievement mark for his mission to the 50's.
