I love that episode title. The writers are often very witty.
Whenever I see Grissom, I wonder about the profile (the detailed ones) that his writers must have gave him. Who is he? What is he like at and out of work? What is his history and what keeps him from finding love?
I love his character. Sharp, funny, intelligent, and well-rounded. Definitely a favourite of mine.
What do you all think?

Is "Gilbert" really his name? Is Gil short for Gilbert?

yeah. His full name is Gilbert Arthur Grissom. originally his last name was going to be Scheinbaum but Billy had them change it in honor of Gus Grissom, one of the first American astronauts. I need a life.

virgil (gus) grissom was one of the original seven mercury astronauts and flew in the gemini programme as well- he was also the commander of apollo 1- grissom stands out not only because he was one of the first astronauts, but because he, edward white, and roger chaffey were the first casualties of the us space programme, dying in the apollo 1 fire (this was the capsule that burned on the launchpad- if you want to know more about this incident, head on over to history.nasa.gov/apollo204/ ). ~ophelia and her fiance |
