Though I am deeply grateful that there is no cliffhanger.

In a season of genre experimentation they couldn't decide whether to end with a Doctor Who episode or a Doctor Strange episode, so why not both?

As I've written elsewhere: By "time-traveling doctor," Pelia was clearly referring to that time she did drugs with McCoy in the 1930s!

Thanks for doing these so quickly! These are always one of the first things I seek out to read after watching an episode.

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: https://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)

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

Why didn't they just put Batel in the medical transporter's pattern buffer, like M'Benga did with his daughter?

 

Where would you put Galaxy Quest in a chronological rewatch of Star Trek episodes, and why?

 

Does anyone have any details on the old cave set? How many different caverns it had? What its layout was?

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

 

What do you think are some of the worst examples of Treknobabble in the franchise?

And what series do you think does it poorly the most often?
