TNG put an end to the red shirt trope in 1987.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Star Trek's red shirt joke hasn't actually been true since 1987 when Star Trek: The Next Generation began. On Star Trek: The Original Series, the USS Enterprise's security officers wore red uniforms and were usually the first ones to die on dangerous away missions. Over the course of TOS, approximately 55 characters were killed, 24 of whom were wearing red shirts, significantly more than any other uniform color.

Related Every Upcoming Star Trek Movie & TV Show Star Trek is ending series like Discovery and Lower Decks but renewed Strange New Worlds while setting up new streaming and theatrical movies. The death of gold uniform-wearing Lt. Tasha Yar in Star Trek: The Next Generation season 1 and its impact on the characters also helped dispel the meaningless death red-shirt trope.
