I remember when Spike TV was running episodes of TOS with a little trivia ticker and one of the recurring ones was “red shirt death count.”
It never got as high as I would have thought from my dad and other older trekkies joking about it. But I could imagine seeing the uniform color change in TNG after years of TOS and thinking they were gonna kill off Picard and Riker.

Believe me, I tried to find a higher quality image. Funny thing is, it’s actually a reasonably large file, but grabbed from a shit source.
