Yeah, it's nice to hear they can still get things done, if they're (a) motivated and (b) not being whipped by their leadership.
Much more affordable at animation rates!
I enjoyed this one more than last week's - I think I'm calibrated to prefer the more heartfelt episodes over the sillier ones. And this one added "the purple D" to the lexicon, so that's...a real legacy, is what it is.

Well, we'll see about that...
Tawny did a guest spot on the Greatest Trek podcast recently, and shed a little more light on how this thing came into being.
Apparently, it was Paramount that was pushing to get a Trek sitcom off the ground, and Alex Kurtzman wasn't sure it could work. But he mentioned it to Tawny, and she rode for the idea.
Yeah, "Ronald B. Moore" was just seen on the holodeck Okudagram in the original episode. It may not have been legible in the pre-remaster version of the show.

When the book was initially announced, I didn't think much of it, but it seems like Visitor really put a lot of work into this thing.
I watched this last night - I have to admit, when I watched the "Unification" short, one of the first things I thought about was Shatner having lost touch with Nimoy prior to Nimoy's death - he recounts (his side of) that story here.
That particular website tends to trade in ragebait, so I can't say I'm surprised.
