Ahhhh! I completely overlooked that in the series. LOL

The very first time I saw McCoy in ToS was in The Man Trap. Nancy, Bones' old flame, has a nickname for him...Plum. I've used it ever since :)
aspectsAK
Been meaning to ask this question for a long time. Why do you often refer to Dr. McCoy as Plum? Thanks.
Fury Roll
Great! Thank you for helping me tweak everything!
aspectsAK
I like that you lowered the volume for the 10 minute resync events. Its not jarring anymore when the second audio stream pops up. Its perfect! Thank you.
Fury Roll
HaHa LOVE that!

Maybe for a future Trelane Q&A segment have Gorgan (some dude wearing a tablecloth) pop up and give Trelane some grief before being POOFED by the General or even have your daughter show up as one of the kids doing the fist pump before being sent off by a hand wave by Trelane. LOL

lol, if I learned anything from watching Cinemasins, it is the fact that a kid is an unprotected sex ghost that haunts you for at least 18 years.
aspectsAK
Yep. I'm not surprised this episode choked on the Gorgan's muumuu for you. When I saw this episode was coming up, I was thinking "Oh dang!" Sorry to see this one come up right after the praise Greg heaped on "The Paradise Syndrome". But then we have to all take the bad with the good. In my opinion, this is one of the worst episodes. I usually skip it when rewatching this series. The first time I saw this episode and I saw that the kids were, for practical term, celebrating the deaths of their parents, I lost all empathy for the kids no matter what their reasons were. I was a younging myself at the time I first saw this episode and I just couldn't understand how someone could not feel sorrow for the lost of their parents. "How about a solo tour of the anti-matter chamber? No. No. Its completely safe." "Tommy. Would you like to see how a phaser set to kill works?" After Tommy caused the Enterprise to leave orbit - "Tommy, I'm going to need you to transport to the planet right now." "Would you like to see a demonstration of the Vulcan Neck Pinch from Spock?"
Fury Roll
That's awesome!

ALWAYS joking when I suggest stunning the kids :D I just get a kick out of Bill Shatner's facial expressions when he works with kids! With the exception of his own kids (that appeared in Miri I believe) his later interviews seem to support those looks he gives :D
Fury Roll
No way! I had no idea he was in Revenge of the Nerds!! That is amazing. Thank you so much for that info, my friend!
Renee S
When I first watched this episode I was trying to figure out where I'd seen the little girl before and it turns out that she and at least one other young actor here made appearances on the Brady Bunch. And the young Asian boy grew up to appear in the classic Revenge of the Nerds :)
Renee S
lol, based on your tagline and the look on your face in the thumbnail this leans more toward the "miss" category as far as Star Trek hit or miss episodes :) And hey, I won't judge you for finding it hilarious when Kirk body slams kids when he reaches his breaking point with them. I feel like someone in the Star Trek production universe goes out of their way to portray most of the kids in the episodes I've seen so far as annoying as possible so maybe they can justify such a reaction from Jim, lol. You however, tone down the knee jerk desire to just stun them and call it a day. Teach Your Children, and know they love you -- Crosby Stills and Nash

I just finished watching the last TOS Trek movie, so what good timing for this upload so I can immediately go back to seeing Kirk and the crew back in their prime :)

Yea... this episode had caused me great reason to cringe. One positive is one of the children actors Pamela Ferdin went to my junior high school. I got to talk to her briefly but she had an apple in her mouth as she was going through her purse lol.
