His father was an admiral.
Admiral "Blackjack" Harriman.
Yep, the aforementioned novel The Captain's Daughter by Peter David established Harriman's father was a high ranking and influential Admiral, John Harriman Sr, known by the nickname Blackjack. In the novel, Captain Harriman struggles with imposter syndrome, worrying he's only where he is because he's the son of a powerful individual, and the aftermath of Kirk's loss as well as a certain event depicted at the start of that novel reinforce his doubts. Blackjack, towards the end of the novel, in a moment when tensions between the two Harrimans come to a tipping point, angrily states that Captain Harriman wouldn't have gotten where he is without him and his influence.
Admiral Blackjack Harriman was also featured in Serpents Among the Ruins, where he's shown to be an even less pleasant individual than The Captain's Daughter presented him as, as when Blackjack is on his deathbed, he admits he's always considered Captain Harriman a disappointment.

I mean, John wasn't the best Captain in the universe but accidents and bad things happen. His father was too big an asshole. The fact he got to keep the Enterprise after Kirk is lost shows he had to at some point demonstrate he deserved to command the flagship of the Federation and stay in the Captain's chair. Starfleet would have replaced him pretty quickly had he not.
Yes.
We need to see him in action again onscreen. Show how he went on to be another great Enterprise Captain.
John Harriman is basically Connor Roy and Blackjack Harriman is basically Logan Roy. Succession Trek
On Facebook, someone posted photos of the sets being dismantled - though I guess he should not have posted that because his original post is gone. Apparently, a local auction house 403 auctions will be selling off some items. The 403 Auction site only accepts Ontario addresses for payment and does not ship, all local pickup in Toronto only.

In Living Color did a Fire Marshall Bill skit set in the 2005 long before Zefram Cochrane's historical warp flight in 2063, on a UN space station which ops looks like the TOS Enterprise bridge and the crew is wearing TOS-esque uniforms.
Had to go to San Francisco Tuesday evening at 5:15 PM for an MRI at UCSF China Basin Radiology, on Berry Street, between 4th and 3rd streets. A San Francisco Public library branch is on 4th street between Berry and Channel streets. Since I arrived 30 minutes early, I went in and was able to get a public library card good for 4 years. Luckily they had received some more of these:
They have been issuing a lot of them since they became available last month, and the staff said they were the most popular card to be issued. It is good for 4 years and is free to California residents with a valid ID.
