    1st Season Blooper Reel

    Star Trek's 1st season blooper reel contains a narration that begins with "Ladies and gentlemen, due to circumstances beyond our control, the program originally scheduled at this time will not be presented . . ." Does anyone know who provided this narration? It doesn't sound like any of the...

    Goddess Janeway?

    TOS, TNG, and DS9 all have something in common; the captain in each series is, at some point, deemed either a god or a religious leader. Kirk is taken as a god in “The Paradise Syndrome,” and to a lesser degree in “The Omega Glory.” Picard gets his turn in “Who Watches the Watchers.” And the...

    "Wink of an Eye" Script Needed

    I've searched the internet for the script to "Wink of an Eye," but was unable to find it anywhere. Does anyone have a copy of the script that they could share, or know where I could get my hands on one? I'm interested in reading the full version of the Scalosian distress call, and figure the...

    Kirk and the King Archetype: A Star Trek Character Analysis

    I believe this type of deeper characterization is an important element often missing in much of the newer storytelling. I would be curious to know your thoughts on archetypes in ST.

    Was "Mark VI" meant as a Biblical Reference?

    Over the weekend I rewatched The Wrath of Khan on its 40th anniversary. It occurred to me that the name on the photon torpedo tube used as Spock's casket is also the name of a chapter in the New Testament. Knowing that the movie if full of literary references I looked up the chapter to see...

    TNG Episodes that Recycled TOS Material

    I've posted this video over in the TOS forum, but I figured it should be posted here as well, since it pertains to both TOS and TNG. Every time I revisit the first season of TNG, I can't help but notice all the concepts from TOS that were reused, but I never realized just how much until I...

    TOS Concepts Recycled In TNG

    I'd noticed when TNG first aired that it seemed like they were rehashing material from TOS, but I never realized just how much until I watched this video: Can you think of anything more that the video creator left out?

    TNG's "homage" to Star Trek III?

    This is quite an analysis. Though I may not have thought of it in these terms, the similarities are definitely present. Some were new to me. I find I do enjoy comparison style videos, as they expand my way of thinking about the material somehow.

    DVD Chapter Titles

    Does anyone know where on the internet I could find a list of DVD chapter titles for TNG episode? Thanks in advance for any information on this!

    Every Myth in Star Trek was Real?

    I never realized this before! According to this video, every myth and legend in Star Trek was proven to be real by the end of the episode. Is this true, or can you think of any that weren't?

    A Mind Meld by any other name...

    I never realized just how many names the mind meld was referred to until I watched this video.

    Unfilmed 3rd Season Episodes

    It's my understanding that NBC ended the third season rather abruptly, and that there were a few more episodes slated to be filmed after "Turnabout Intruder." I even recall reading that William Shatner was tapped to made his directorial debut on one of them. Does anyone know anything more about...

    Balance of Terror/Wrath of Khan Connection?

    I never realized how many similarities there were between Balance of Terror and The Wrath of Khan until I saw this new youtube video from a channel called "Meta Trek": I know that Harve Bennett screened all 78 TOS episodes as part of his research before starting on Star Trek II, and that's...

    Mind Meld Origins (from a Production Perspective)

    tatiara7 has posted another in depth video. I thought the Star Trek community may find it of interest: For those who may not have seen the other video I posted from this channel, which is about the Phase II/TNG characters, here's a link to that video: there is also a third video on the...

    Green Bridge Dome

    I'm not sure if this has been discussed before, but what is known about the green dome hanging from the center of the bridge? Does it have a name? Does it serve a function? I couldn't find anything about it on Memory Alpha.

    Game Place That Reused Prop

    Many props built for one episode of TOS were re-purposed for other episodes. Can we build a comprehensive list of every reuse of a given prop? Let's start off with the Neural Neutralizer's control panel. Once we've exhausted the reuse of one prop (to the best of our combined knowledge at the...

    In Which Two Episodes . . .

    Inspired by "Name That Star Trek Episode . . ." The principle of the game is: Someone gives a clue starting with, "in which two episodes does ______ happen?" and the first one to guess the two correct episodes comes up with the next set of episodes with a common element. I'll start things off...

    ST Continues "To Boldly Go": A Fan Edit

    I found this "fan edit" of the two part Star Trek Continues episode. To me it feels even more like an actual episode of TOS. I found a lot of the little "annoying" parts and extraneous plot threads have been cut out. But that's my opinion. What do you think of it? Here are the original two...
