More unbiased data can be found here........where Discovery has pretty much been in the Top 10 every week since it started. I'll even cite the source and not say "I can't tell you how I know".

Those figures aren't a measure of how many people have watched those shows. Those are "demand expressions." More about demand expressions here: https://support.parrotanalytics.com/hc/en-us/articles/222663987-What-are-Demand-Expressions-

There isn't a transparent formula for how those figures are calculated, and there isn't any raw data either from which the number of people who have watched each episode can be recovered.
 
Back on the subject of Yorktown, I do hope you've collected some behind-the-scenes footage and are planning a making-of doc at some point, John.
 
Let's not be cynical or we'll end up with a Whatever Happened to Yorktown A Time to Heal? thread that'll be as tedious as the Exeter one was. :D

Nice clip. You might want to revisit the audio of the ship popping out of warp. It just feels "off" somehow to my ear, like the loudest bit is after it decelerates.
 
I like the added grain but there is one frame where there is a white squiggle that shows up close to the middle of the frame. I guess it's supposed to be a hair or a scratch? I think trying to match the grain and color/contrast profile of Super8 makes sense but not to intentionally degrade the picture with scratches, at least not to that extent. Here's the frame in question.

I appreciate the desire to have everything fit in seamlessly with old footage. Some dot-shaped scratches/dust are OK but things like this will just distract from being able to appreciate all the hard work put into this.

If there are similar scratches in the original Super8 footage then this would make it "of a piece" and wouldn't bother me.

That said, the real trick to making this all look of a piece is to make sure the video portions match the focal quality of the Super8 stuff. Right now it looks a bit sharp but without seeing it intercut with the Super8 stuff I can't really say.
 
Nice.

I dunno what is up with Chrome on my Mac. It is not showing me a lot of photos, just broken links. I had to open it in Safari.

EDIT: Looks like it was a plugin not liking certain photo-sharing sites.
