@GraniteM @jimhensonslostpuppet oh, so many of those ToS episodes ended with us just warping off into the sunset, leaving behind both a mess and many questions...
@The_Picard_Maneuver thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

I'm old enough that there was only one Trek when I started. My take on a recent rewatch: https://rdvlivefromtokyo.blogspot.com/2021/09/ranking-star-trek-original-series.html?m=1
@jdavidnet @billmason @startrek SF is always a product of its time. But I am with you, way too much of both fiction and film are too dark, angry, depressing and ugly.
For another stark example, compare 2001 and 2010.
