    I'm hardly posting for the validation of the 4 individuals who take issue with that YT channel for whatever reason. :lol:

    If there's something worthwhile I find, like a showrunner interview, I'll share it here. It makes no difference to me whether some people watch it or not.

    Terry has another one coming in a few days. You can chose to watch it, or not. No gratitude required.

    I think it’s great that Terry is appearing on some fan channels. That’s wonderful. (Id argue you could have one thread for all of these videos but that’s just my opinion.) My issue is that some fans put way too much stock in a lot of what they see on YouTube. A lot of which is opinion pieces they treat as fact.

    A description is worth posting. Not everyone has the same values.

    A new thread for it is a great idea.

    Because I know Terry, Some castmembers, and some production people (Okuda and others) are going to be appearing in these interviews and group chats this weekend onwards, to discuss Episode 4 and beyond.

    Why would I post the description to it and not the direct link?

    It makes more sense to watch the interview and hear Terry speak in his own words, than me paraphrase.

    Hard disagree. I don't know Terry, and I don't care to know him because I don't interact with him. I have zero relationship with him. However, I do interact with you and would like some sort of cordial or otherwise discussion based relationship with you. Hearing your thoughts matters more to me than Terry's thoughts because it tells me more about you. And I like to learn about the people I am interacting with.
    Why post a link and no description? Why not both?

    I'm pretty sure I posted a very brief description, just not a transcript of the whole thing.

    There will be others. They'll be posted in the appropriate thread and it's on you whether you want to watch them or not.

    You're doing a terrible job of selling them.

    More's the pity. :(:sigh:

    I don't need to sell anything. Like I said, not posting them for you specifically.

    If you're interested in what Terry has to say, so be it. If not, no big deal.

    The show continues to be great, it makes no difference.

    That you don't wish to share your thoughts is the pity. No connection, no human interaction, no value...

    A pity, as I say.:shrug:

    My thoughts? I already did. It's awesome. I love that Terry, his cast and team are doing this.

    Other franchises, take notes.

    Me too.
    They've gotta book Worf onto Lower Decks some. He's always been one of the best comedy characters in the ensemble.

    Hmm. Is the title a reference to Apollo 11?

    I guess I'll find out tomorrow night. Maybe.

    Hmm. 17 seconds in the turbolift. Doesn't rule out an Apollo 11 reference, and neither does the complete lack of any overt allusion: it's still an unusual interval.

    That Vadic is a total bitch.

    Nice to see that answers are starting to come.

    I don't suppose it's that much more obscure than an Apollo 11 reference. But it begs the question, from what bodily orifice did they pull the title? (The Wikipedia article appears to be conspicuously silent on that.)

    Randomness.

    Though, a study indicates it is the "least random":


    • Described at MIT as 'the least random number', according to the Jargon File.[42] This is supposedly because in a study where respondents were asked to choose a random number from 1 to 20, 17 was the most common choice.
      • This study has been repeated a number of times.[43]
