    Tonight I viewed another TNG episode involving Romulans, Tin Man. Though these Romulans were generic. even so, it’s a good episode.

    And the actress who plays Ba’el is the same actress who plays Libby in Star Trek Voyager. That one was hard to spot! I had to look it up. https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Jennifer_Gatti

    I’ve followed on with my viewings of Romulan episodes of TNG. My next viewing was Time Scape that involved the Romulans almost tangentially. Then came The Pegasus. I always liked that episode but the Enterprise finale almost kind of spoiled it, but it really doesn’t. So I’ve just not watched...

    I had not seen Face of the Enemy in a year or two and I’d forgotten the connection with Spock. This is a great follow-up to Unification.

    Thanks for the input! My next episode was going to be Face of the Enemy. I had seen The Neutral Zone a few months ago. That’s why I left it out, but it’s one of the best first season episodes I thought. Even if what I read is true that it went into production with a half finished script. I did...

    Great to see all the early Star Trek syndication promos and bumpers.

    Yes Yes, John Trimble‘s passing has been noted on other Star Trek sites. Bjo got all the notoriety it seemed. But they were a pair who worked for Roddenberry on the Save Star Trek campaigns. It’s great the Trimbles have been around this long to see how their hard work has helped the franchise...

    Scott, not to ignore your thread of the films having good continuity with the series, as you’re right, Bennett was good to maintain that. I’m surprisingly fascinated with the topic of when Star Trek was originally syndicated. Another of those ads I posted above shows that stations who buy Star...

    This question of when Star Trek TOS first was syndicated really had me curious. I remember seeing it on KTVU channel 2 in the San Francisco Bay Area in my youth. It’s etched on my tongue. I even remember in 1976 as a very young kid, I saw a KTVU camera man filming an event in 1976 and asking him...

    Kevin, I recall Star Trek fandom being huge in the 1975 to 76 time period. Of course the series was in full syndication then. What I don’t recall was what was happening in 1971. I’ll have to try to figure that one out. edit: I recall now schoolmates playing Star Trek in the schoolyard and I’m...

    From what I’ve read, Garr wasn’t happy with Roddenberry trying to make her costume’s skirt shorter and shorter. Perhaps others know more. I think Garr’s role was an important one as she would be in the place of the audience members who get to see what’s going from her point of view.

    We are “One”. :). That a good idea to build a replica. I’m sure this team will give all options consideration.

    This and other photos are popping up on the Replica Prop Forum. The dream team was there to authenticate the 3 foot Enterprise model. This is terrific!

    Howie, you beat me to it! I had a super busy day at work and hadn’t had time to check out the story. The news as to whether it would be returned to Roddenberry and authenticated had not been made public yet, until today as far as I knew. I knew this model was the real deal. All the “tells” were...

    Because of all the commotion about Assignment Earth. I watched it this evening. Very Groovy. It’s not one of my favorites either, but as a youth, I always enjoyed seeing it. Maybe partly because it incorporated Apollo spacecraft too. I still have no issues with the episode. I like seeing 1968...

    An aspect of this episode that I found interesting was for how long it took to correctly identify the actress who plays the human version of Isis the cat. https://larrynemecek.com/who-is-human-isis-50-year-mystery-is-over-thanks-to-the-trek-files/ I was also surprised to find a website...

    I’m glad we have the full color and mixed color and black and white versions of The Cage from the Blu ray and earlier DVD and VHS. It could have been lost forever or nearly as the 3 foot Enterprise model is. ( And perhaps has been discovered late last year. ) it seems there’s a lot of fans...

    I also do not have a recollection that Bob Furmanek found the missing color footage. We owe him a great debt! I still have the VHS tape and laser disc too. I remember how cool it was to see The Cage in color when that was released. I also saw Roddenberry at the Concord Pavilion and saw The Cage...

    Guys, I have a sort of non sequitur Star Trek related post. I was watching some classic TV over the weekend. First, Leave It Beaver. I haven’t seen this series for ages and re-visiting it via the new blu ray set and a few OTA broadcasts on MeTV. I saw an episode where Majel Barrett has a small...

    I did a triple feature last night. 1. An episodes of TNG that was chosen due to the first episode of Star Trek Discovery season 5 that premiered this week. 2. Star Trek SNW, Those Old Scientists. I had not seen that for some time. Good fun. 3. Episode 2 of Star Trek Discovery.

    Guys, something that might be of interest to some of the Star Trek fans here, there’s an episode of Collectors Call that airs on MeTV that will feature a Star Trek fan who is a collector. He collects mostly prop replicas, communicators, tricorder, phaser and other things screen used. (Coffee...

    Sam, thanks for the link to the Variety article on the state of Star Trek Today. It was a good articke and I really liked the effort spent to create all the artwork to illustrate. They picked a lot of fun shots of the characters from the various shows. I’m glad TOS was so well represented...

    William Shatner has been out promoting a new film. I wasn’t able to see the Jimmy Kimmel appearance, but it’s nice it’s on YouTube.

    In that listing for Star Trek, it say this series will be reviewed by Cleveland Armoray. I had to look that up! I found the text. I’ve never seen this review before: Cleveland Amory's March 25, 1967 TV Guide Review of Star Trek. The mission of the "Star Ship" Enterprise is to seek out and...

    I carried on with more favorite or special and iconic episodes. I decided to go back and watch Where No Man Has Gone Before and The Corbomite Maneuver back to back. I wanted to go back to a time when Star Trek was fresh and some traces of The Cage lingered. These two episodes as we know are the...
