VERY SHORT TREKS...

T'ana probably doesn't.
I really enjoyed "Walk, Don't Run".

My first thought was "Homage to Way to Eden of all things?" But the episode is tactfully written and has no qualms poking some lighthearted and innocent fun at itself and the time in which it was made. The song itself just feels natural to the piece and it was something of an unexpected bit of fun surprise. The Archies cartoon style, made by the same Filmation folks, of course, is a perfect fit. I wouldn't think too much into it as well, but - if anything - prodigy needed to be there, even if briefly. (and PRD is not my favorite incarnation of the show, but these very shorts encapsulate the history of the show so PRD would be a perfect fit for this finale as well. If I recall, they were in the previous one as well. Either which way, LD came first and TAS did pave the way for future animated shows and LD took things to the next level, and the original is quite good as well.)
That was a very cute finale. I love that they acknowledged that they're all cartoons. Who did Scotty's voice? Was it James Doohan's son, who played the role in the Continues fan films and Star trek Online? Because it was pretty spot-on.
Not gonna ask. NEVER piss off a person who could saw off your leg and get away with it!

Who would ever have thought this particular debate would reach such a fevered pitch as to rival only that of "Is Starfleet a military organization?"
Starfleet isn't a military. It has something called Strategic Tactical Deployments or STD's for short.
Well, no, since per the trailer, these shorts aren't canon.
That was adorable and a great way to end the series. 
This was weird. Still an improvement over previous shorts, so ok.
Except the trailer isn't canon.
Last 2 have been much better........
It was only out of canon from the official memo of January 1989 (Filmation being sold off and TAS rights were in flux, plus Richard Arnold hated TAS) until Gene Roddenberry's death in September 1991.
Then the Official Star Trek site of the day was able to upload encyclopedic entries to their online material, which they did, and Jeri Taylor even added a TAS reference to her novelization of "Unification". TAS was back!
