  What I always wanted was someone to rearrange all the clips into chronological order. I don’t know why but it bothers me that they skip around.

  • The one time I got to see Gene Roddenberry speak, he had brought along a blooper reel, which I think was fairly common to show at Star Trek conventions in the late 1970s, early 1980s?
  • The Greatest Trek podcast mentioned that “TK” in the name TK Bellows is clearly an homage to the publishing term: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/To_come_(publishing)
  • The Greatest Trek also felt that the Uhura assistance to Scotty was a nod to her caregiving of him in Star Trek 5 (bringing him dinner while working, going on shore leave together)

  I forgot about Gene Roddenberry’s sideburns in the 1970s. Hmm. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_Roddenberry#/media/Fil… en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaac_Asimov#/media/File:Is…

  Anson Mount’s sideburns were a clear homage to Isaac Asimov.

  I found it humorous that Clem is also a Lower Decker in his society!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I just finish to see all TNG movies.⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It is the best of a bad bunch. The TOS movies inspired the TNG movies. The TNG movies inspired a lull in the movies (no call for a DS9 or Voyager or Enterprise movie) that had to be filled with a reboot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Happy Star Trek Day! What was your first contact?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My dad watched TOS with me when it first aired, but I was too young to remember it. My first recollection is watching it in syndication. I went on to read my dad’s many books, especially the Star Trek Concordance and the James Blish adaptations.

  Thanks, that sent me Googling. “KIM: I’ll try extrapolating the verteron exit vector. No, I can’t get it. There’s a strange phase variance in the radiation stream. We’ll have to wait until the probe exits.” Episode 6 (another wormhole?!) www.chakoteya.net/Voyager/106.htm

  I’ve since discovered “Banned from Argo” (YouTube, Wikipedia).

  I love this! Now you need to do an analysis like this one on Star Trek and the Bechdel-Wallace test!

  I realize you’re not trying to predict quality, just personal enjoyability, but I do wonder how it relates to quality.

  I actually think it might be slightly more predictive of the quality of a show overall than of individual episodes. But both ST:TOS and ST:TNG have many great captain-centric episodes that I’m not sure if it is predictive of episode quality particularly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Searching for the "most representative" Star Trek episode⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I think I’d suggest a planet-of-the-week episode. From TOS, “This Side of Paradise” or “A Taste of Armageddon.” From TNG, maybe “Who Watches the Watchers” or “Up the Long Ladder.”

  I felt like Freeman included Rutherford because his “gee whiz! lookee there!” naïveté added to her cover.
