I've been checking out the deleted scenes posted by "Mego Star Trek" on Youtube. What I'm finding is that the episodes, as shot on set, were a lot more conversational and "realistic talk" oriented than the finished versions. And I feel like most of the deleted dialogue I'm seeing would just...

How about those moments when what is said doesn't quite go with what's happening? • The Corbomite Maneuver "I knew he would." Sulu's line was confusing for years. Now we know what happened, but my best guess during the syndie era was that Sulu "knew" Kirk would apologize to McCoy. That wasn't...

You know the scene in "Day of the Dove" (ep 66 in production order) where the Klingons look at a graphic and say "Layout and specifications of the Enterprise, Commander." For years I was led to believe that the colored diagram had been removed from the bridge Environmental station for that...

• Leonard Nimoy played an alien in Zombies of the Stratosphere. Gene Roddenberry personally invited Nimoy to play Spock, but I'm still going to say it was a coincidence. • Susan Oliver was in an episode of The Twilight Zone with similarities to "The Cage," and in a similar role. She might have...

I can't give a blanket endorsement of the 2006 TOS-R fx. But I like a lot of them. If there's enough interest in the topic, maybe we suss out a consensus on some of the episode calls. Which shows engender the most agreement? Here are my votes to start us off: CGI is Better: • The Corbomite...

What are all the ways you watched the Original Series? If you're old enough, it might be more ways than you think. 1) Original NBC broadcasts. This was the real OG. Cigarette commercials and all. You might still be watching on a b&w set. You have to give up Bewitched and That Girl for Star...

William Shatner gave Kirk an athletic grace nobody else seemed to have. The way he moved was always cool. When he did his own stunts, he looked fantastic, whether it was something simple like vaulting over a rock in "Who Mourns...", or launching his whole body into a flying drop kick. Even...

At the end of "The Menagerie," the Keeper pops up on the wall screen and talks directly to Kirk. We know Malachi Throne recorded the new dialogue, pitch altered, for the scene. But the Keeper is looking right into the camera and smiling warmly, his head veins a-pumping. Where did that come...

I'll tell you what started out wrong and they fixed it: • The Keeper's voice in "The Cage" was originally just Malachi Throne. For "The Menagerie," they adjusted it electronically to be weird and alien sounding, and that was a huge improvement. Huge. • The Ferengi started out as artificially...

There is a belief out there that the Kirk-Sulu uniform had a false yellow appearance (prior to the 2006 remaster) because of "a film stock thing." The idea was that the shirts were really green, and the yellow look came in only because 35mm Kodak film was somehow inaccurate for that color...

What does RITOS mean? https://shop.startrek.com/collections/t-shirts/products/star-trek-lower-decks-ritos-adult-short-sleeve-t-shirt-sc1691 I haven't been able to see the series, so no spoilers please. :)

I just solved a problem in "Miri." You remember the situation: kids stole the communicators, and that's the ballgame for McCoy, because he was tethering on his communicator's data plan to get his desktop computer online with the Enterprise, his cloud computing provider. Now he's got no phone...

"Strange love a star woman teaches." Uh, what? Since when does love have to be taught? Was Gene using "strange love" as the code for exotic [physical] positions? In 1966? For a TV show? Alexander Courage said that Gene being a sex maniac is why Gene insisted on putting the female soprano in...

I sent you a message via your contact page a couple of days ago. You check that In Box, right? :)

In Generations, Data claims that Geordi told a Ferengi joke during the Farpoint mission. But, while that exchange shows up in the Chakoteya transcript of the movie, I can't find it in the episode transcript. And I thought I did vaguely recall La Forge saying the punchline, and early-Data having...

I just noticed that this exemplary website on the original communicator props has vanished: http://herocomm.com/ Does anybody know what happened? "Under Construction" could mean anything. And that site was beyond belief, the greatest resource for communicator info you could possibly imagine.

I think the bridge floor plan we've been looking at all these years is just the Patrol and Combat configuration. In a typical episode, the bridge is optimized for fighting and radio calls: https://www.cygnus-x1.net/links/lcars/blueprints/uss-enterprise-bridge-sheet-1.jpg But in a realistic...

I think Spock would upgrade the shields after WNMHGB to block the barrier's effects (Mitchell and Dehner dangerously mutated, nine others killed), but my theory has not met with universal agreement. @Ssosmcin thinks we did nothing, and the Kelvins boosted our shields later. Anyway, the next...

From the 1969 TV special 33 1/3 Revolutions Per Monkee: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Monkees#/media/File:Monkees_Television_special_1969.jpg I'm wondering if these were the actual Star Trek boots, possibly available after the show was canceled. If not, meaning if the special could just go...
