* ActorInspiredElement: When Joseph Ruskin saw that his costume consisted of a long black floor-length robe, he came up with the idea of walking in an extremely fluid way (known as "glide stepping" by marching bands). He thought that combined with the robe, it might make the viewer wonder if he was even a bi-ped humanoid, or perhaps had some other means of movement.

** Uhura's drill thrall was originally written as a large muscular black man, but Robert Justman complained that it would reinforce the "different but equal" policies presented in some network programs, and opted to cast a white actor in the role instead.
