Az Enterprise biztosítja a helyszínét a legaraiak és a Föderáció közötti tárgyalásoknak, a diplomáciai küldetés lebonyolításához pedig Sarek nagykövet érkezik a fedélzetre. Amíg a hajó a helyszínre tart, Sarek stábja szigorú elzárkózást kér a nagykövet számára, a vulkáni diplomata pedig furcsa viselkedésről ad tanúbizonyságot. Amikor a hajón koncertet rendeznek, a nagykövetet könnyekig hatja az előadás, ezzel párhuzamosan pedig éles konfliktushelyzetek és tettlegességig fajuló összeszólalkozások törnek ki a fedélzeten, a fékezhetetlen viselkedés ráadásul Sarek állapotával és jelenlétével állhat kapcsolatban.

Who's got worse daddy issues than an aging Vulcan? Sarek does! Mark Lenard returns to go toe-to-toe with Patrick Stewart and it's illogical (ILLOGICAL! ILLOGICAL!) to assume anything other than a throw-down master class in acting is about to occur. Ambassador Sarek is onboard with his wife to complete a 97-year diplomatic mission, but he's so old that he's psycho-actively making the crew of the Enterprise collectively lose their tempers. Beverly beats Wesley, science officers beat up Riker, Worf and O'Brien and Geordi says some shit he can't take back. But a mindmeld fever dream scene straight out of Star Trek Acid Party is all we need to make everything status quo again. Get in touch with us on Twitter @ReEngageTNG!

We choose the danger this week as we look at the film that gave new life to the Star Trek film franchise: "Star Trek III: The Search for Spock"!New York Times bestselling author David Mack returns to the show to discuss the unfairly maligned sequel to "Wrath of Khan" and why it deserves more respect. After returning to Earth from Genesis, Kirk feels deeply the loss of his friend Captain Spock. But when Spock's father Sarek requests that Spock's body be recovered, Kirk and his crew will risk their careers, their reputations, and their lives to see their friend become whole once more! As the third film in the franchise, "The Search for Spock" is often lumped in with the "odd Trek films are bad" cliché, but that viewpoint overlooks both the important contributions the film makes to Trek's future and the skill and care with which it was created. The Klingons that fans would come to know and love have their origins here, as does the Klingon language, many original ship and tech designs, and the deep mysticism of the Vulcan culture. Also, the nuance and confidence of first-time director Nimoy is impressive, and for better or for worse, the legend of Kirk as a head-strong maverick originates with this film. On this episode, we talk about Kirk's festering pain over Spock's death, the sky-high stakes of the film, the film's canny use of its ensemble, the way STIII evolved during its development, religious and mythological overtones, and losing everything to help a friend.We also discuss how real-world tragedy can affect writing, planning the death of a book series, being a Star Trek Sherpa, "fixing" STIII, the Vulcan Kennedys, accidental brain shredding, the menace of Christopher Lloyd, greasy dog puppets, wanting more Mark Lenard, shake-and-bake planets, getting pranked by God, and Frank Force as "Nacluv"!#KrugewasrightCheck out David's work on his website and pre-order his new book, "Harm's Way"!https://davidmack.pro/https://amzn.to/3NBbxmkLearn the story behind your favorite Trek episodes with BackTrekking!http://www.twitter.com/backtrekkingMeld with us on Facebook and Twitter and the Just Enough Trope Discord!http://www.facebook.com/eistpodhttp://www.twitter.com/eistpodhttps://discord.gg/WVvCHVWqzfBuy us katric ark on Patreon and Ko-Fi!http://www.patreon.com/eistpodhttps://ko-fi.com/E1E01M2UASubscribe to the show on iTunes!https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/enterprising-individuals/id1113165661?mt=2

Walter Koenig, Ensign Pavel Chekov from "Star Trek" In the past, I've always said how excited I was to chat with an actor who appeared on the original Star Trek. But, this time around, it's not just any actor, but a key part of the bridge crew! Walter Koenig was Ensign Pavel Chekov, who appeared in "Star Trek" starting in season 2 and continued to play the part through all of the TOS films and "Generations." As I learned in his new book, "Beaming Up and Getting Off: Life Before and Beyond Star Trek," Koenig struggled after the series ended and continued to feel resentment and frustration for a good part of his career due to the stigma of being in a sci-fi show. Today, Koenig understands who he is and what the character means to fans around the world as well as himself, and in this candid discussion, we talk all about that. Hear some stories about Walter's time as the Russian ensign aboard the Enterprise, working with Mark Lenard on a stage show, thoughts on his action figures, some of the shows and films he has appeared in, and much more in this intimate and surprising chat that gets to the core of who Walter Koenig truly is.

Directamente desde La Serie Original, llega Sarek, el padre de Spock, a La Nueva Generación. O como prefieren decir los milenials: directamente desde Star Trek Discovery, llega Sarek, el padre de Michael Burnham, a The Next Generation. ‘Sarek’ trata en realidad de la pérdida de atributos con la edad y de enfermedades como el Alzheimer. Sarek, con más de 200 años, está perdiendo sus capacidades. Debido al Bendii, ya no puede concentrarse ni controlar sus emociones. Además, proyecta telepáticamente malas vibraciones, no las buenas vibraciones de los Beach Boys que te hacen bailar sin parar, sino las malas vibraciones que provocan peleas por toda la Enterprise. Lo mejor del episodio son las actuaciones de Patrick Stewart y Mark Lenard, y la fusión mental final entre Picard y Sarek, que tendrá su contrapartida con Spock en Unification. Empezamos a charlar sobre el episodio en el minuto 33. ¡Larga vida y prosperidad!
To fill the gap between Star Trek on TV and big screen, a record album was conceived to have various audio essays and interviews with Trek actors "in character." Mark Lenard signed up to play Sarek on a number of topics, and this week we welcome back author Jean Lorrah with her take on characterizing the Vulcan and what she may have contributed.

We continue our "Best of TOS" series, as the Discussing Trek crew reviews "Journey to Babel", a season two episode of Star Trek. We dive deep into an episode that gives us a look at Spock's parents for the first time, along with an insight into the complicated relationship he has with his father Sarek.
The Romulan spies at Cinemondo Headquarters welcome special guest Mark Maddox to discuss another outstanding episode of Star Trek, “The Balance of Terror,” where we get to meet the Romulans for the first time and experience some suspenseful submarine-style military tactics, some personal tragedies and some interstellar bigotry. It’s a fantastic episode with so much going on, we do our best to cover it in minute detail. This is one of the episodes that makes us love the original series. All of our favorite characters are great here, and the interplay between the tactics and techniques of the two starship commanders is classic wartime cat-and-mouse.

We're sure all the Earbuds are ready to start a fresh new year! Let's do it by bursting our brain while watching the horror classic Scanners. Plus, the January 1981 issue of Starlog and our recap of the amazing TechnoRetro gifts we got for Christmas this year. Now that the holidays are over, we can get back to horror movies, right? Well, that’s what David Cronenberg though in 1981 when he brought us Scanners. A new month brings a new issue of Starlog from 1981 on the Magazine Rack. And we share the great gifts we were lucky enough to receive for Christmas. TechnoRetro News Netflix gave us a Christmas gift when they announced that season 3 of Cobra Kai would premiere early on January 1 We send all our best wishes to legendary voice actor Tom Kane who has been recovering from a stroke The surviving Beatles have been keeping busy during the pandemic. Both Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr released new music. Saturday Morning cartoons have returned to MeTV! Cereal Shua shares some holiday discoveries and The Roving Spoonster has two great stories. Pebbles has a great filter if you are a user of TikTok. And you can share it to celebrate their 50th anniversary. Kellogg’s is releasing a Crayola Crayons cereal, but does it taste as authentic as the real thing? Magazine Rack The cover story about Star Trek actor Mark Lenard doesn’t even scratch the surface of what you can find in this issue of Starlog. If you were lucky enough to pick up the actual paper copy, you would have acquired a free vinyl disk by Neil Norman who plays sci-fi songs in his own special style. And you could read about the animated Flash Gordon, the Wild Wild West, and an announcement about the upcoming Star Wars Radio Drama. And tons more! Check out the Magazine Rack! Let’s All Go to the Movies In 1981 David Cronenberg was experimenting with all kinds of gruesome special effects as he built his directing career. Michael Ironside, in one of his early roles, stars as an evil, telepathic ‘Scanner’ who wants to build an army of more evil, telepathic Scanners. How well does the 40 year old movie hold up by today’s standards. And what did this groundbreaking movie do to push special effects into the future. This is Scanners Toys in the Attic Jay and Shua give a rundown of the great TechnoRetro gifts their friends and families bequeathed upon this this holiday season. Toys, games, comics, and more for the grateful Dads. What did you get?
We're closing off our Three's a Good Number series of TOS episodes with another Season 1 gem, "Balance of Terror." Our first introduction to the Romulans is also a merry romp into Cold War analogies which don't actually translate that well into space, but we love it anyway! In addition to some excellent acting all around, especially by Mark Lenard as the most poetic Romulan to grace our screens, we heap praise on this episode's examination of prejudice and the burden's of leadership. Tangents include Grand Tour, Laura's love of battleship, and several self-referential bits. A special shout out goes to the Romulan color scheme, and the purple gas clouds of death.

Watch Star Trek here while listening! Proving that they have almost completely run out of new ideas (send suggestions!) this episode ransacks two classic television series. The original television version of Star Trek spawned a Next Generation as well an entire lineage of television and film descendants (not to mention the whole Comic.Con culture). According to the summary of “Journey To Babel” published on the Alpha Memory website, “As the Enterprise comes under attack on the way to a diplomatic conference on Babel, one of the alien dignitaries is murdered, and Spock’s estranged father, Sarek, is the prime suspect – but he is also deathly ill, and only Spock can save him.” According to Wikipedia, this episode of the television series features not only the first appearances of Mark Lenard as Sarek and Jane Wyatt as Amanda, but also the introduction of two new species, the Andorians and the Tellarites. Mystery Science Theater 3000 was described in The Complete Directory to Prime Time Network and Cable TV Shows as a “…movie hosted by a human and two robots who appeared in silhouette in the lower right-hand corner of the screen, offering sarcastic commentary as the flick unspooled.”MoreFollow us on InstagramFollow us on TwitterFollow us on Facebook
The crew takes a deep dive into "Balance of Terror," widely considered one of Star Trek’s best.

Balance of Terror was the fourteenth episode of Star Trek‘s debut season to air, with a skilled adversary presenting a tough examination of Kirk's battle craft. In this episode Gerry and Iain debate the rights and wrongs of bearing grudges from your ancestors' wars. Responding to a distress call from an outpost bordering the Neutral Zone between Federation and Romulan space, Kirk and the Enterprise are thrust into conflict with an enemy unseen in over a century when fired upon by a Romulan Warbird and its commander (Mark Lenard). Casualties of the conflict included a Romulan Centurion (John Warburton), the Romulan officer Decius (Lawrence Montaigne) and the Enterprise phaser operator Lt Tomlinson (Stephen Mines), who had been due to marry fellow officer Angela Martine (Barbara Baldavin) that day. Lt. Stiles (Paul Comi) was saved from a similar fate by the quick thinking of Spock, who he had suspected of being a Romulan infiltrator for much of the episode. Balance of Terror was directed by Vincent McEveety, the third of six episodes he helmed. The episode was written by Paul Schneider, who wrote one further episode of the series, along with an episode of The Animated Series. In this episode Gerry and Iain considered what friendship there is to be found between two warring adversaries and whether a foolish man builds his house upon an asteroid. The discussion continues in the comments below and please keep in touch with us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram where we're @trekpodcast. You can listen to the show here on the website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, Pocket Casts, TuneIn, Stitcher, Google or wherever you find your podcasts. Balance of Terror was released in 1966. It is 50 minutes long and originally aired on the NBC network. It can be viewed on CBS All Access in the United states, Netflix in the UK and is available on DVD and Blu Ray in other countries, including a comprehensive remastered set of all three seasons released by Paramount Home Entertainment.

Balance of Terror is famously a WWII sub hunting story translated to outer space, but as Jimmy Akin, Dom Bettinelli, and Fr. Cory Sticha discuss, it's also more than that, including a poignant faith subplot, a bit of Cold War maneuvering, and some great acting by guest star Mark Lenard.

This week on Priority One --- things are already beginning to shake up with Star Trek Picard; Tarantino starts to put some distance between himself and Star Trek; and Paramount places bets on VR. In Gaming News, the mobile game Fleet Command is getting a huge update; then, we wrap our year with TWO interviews with Cryptic Studios to discuss 2019 milestones and take a glimpse into 2020…. Featuring an interview with Executive Producer Andre Emerson. Of course, as always, before we wrap up the show, we’ll open hailing frequencies for your incoming messages Let us know on social media like Facebook, Twitter, or by visiting our website! This Weeks Community Question Is: CQ: If “Star Trek Development Project #2” isn’t a film directed by Tarantino, what do you hope it is? TREK IT OUT by Shane Hoover Picard News The hype shuttle for Star Trek: Picard has definitely hit maximum warp, Captains. In fact, Picard is the number one most anticipated TV show of the coming year. At least according to metrics compiled and reported by the website IMDB. And if this week’s news reported by Deadline is any indication, CBS is well aware of the hype. The new series doesn’t even premiere until January 23rd, but Season Two has already been budgeted with over $20.4 million in tax incentives by the state of California. For reference sake, Deadline reports that Picard’s $20 million incentive is “the most any small screen project has ever been awarded in the California Film Commission program since then Governor Jerry Brown officially expanded the credits to $330 million a year”. So while the cast and crew have been cagey when asked about a potential Season Two, it’s hard to argue with $20 million in tax appropriations. Plenty of questions still hang over Season Two speculation, though. One big uncertainty for fans is the role that Season One showrunner Michael Chabon may occupy. On December 10th, Variety reported that the Pulitzer Prize winning author and his wife, producing partner Ayelet Waldman, inked a deal with ViacomCBS property Showtime to adapt his novel “The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay”. The pair will serve the new project as Executive Producers and joint-showrunners. Now surely, Chabon will remain creatively connected to Picard Season Two, but it seems likely these other commitments will see him step down as showrunner. With lots to still speculate about, only one thing seems certain after the Season Two news. My previous prediction that Star Trek: Picard would be a single season swansong for the great Captain… well just maybe I was wrong. Unless! What if they still send off Jean-Luc in the first season finale, and the show carries on the adventures of the rest of the cast aboard the U.S.S. Picard? It could happen. Trekantino On The Rocks? While we’re in the mood for speculation, let’s revisit some news we shared last episode. If you recall, we discussed recent statements from new ViacomCBS CEO Bob Bakish, and among those was his confirmation that two new Star Trek films are currently in development. The obvious contenders at the time were the Kelvin Timeline’s Star Trek 4 and the much discussed Quentin Tarantino Star Trek project. But comments made by Tarantino this week are casting doubt on whether his Star Trek project may proceed at all. The Oscar-winning writer/director sat down for an interview with ConsequenceOfSound.net as their Filmmaker of the Year. In the far reaching interview, Tarantino once again echoed his commitment to walk away from filmmaking after 10 films. And when questioned whether Star Trek represented that 10th film, he answered, “I think I’m steering away from Star Trek, but I haven’t had an official conversation with those guys yet.” He went on to add “But in a weird way, it actually kind of freed me up. I mean, I have no idea what the story of the next one’s going to be. I don’t even have a clue.” Paramount VR Deal Paramount Pictures and VR platform service Bigscreen, Inc. have announced a new partnership. Under the new arrangement, Bigscreen’s virtual theater platform will distribute classic Paramount movies in 10 countries around the world. Starting December 16th 2019, Bigscreen will show four new movies every week, with each movie run lasting one week. Showtimes will begin every 30 minutes as live pay-per-view events. Captains, you’ll be happy to hear that the Kelvin Star Trek films are among the titles in the December lineup. The virtual screenings will include 2D movies as well as select 3D movies rendered to create a unique 3D experience for Virtual Reality viewers. Besides just watching the films, Bigscreen offers users a virtual lobby with personal avatars and voice chat to add a social aspect to the experience. CEO and Founder of Bigscreen, Darshan Shankar, says “We are excited to enable fans around the world to chat and watch films together in our virtual movie theater.” Bigscreen’s service supports the Oculus Quest, Oculus Rift, Oculus Go, HTC Vive, Valve Index, SteamVR, and Microsoft Mixed Reality.

Már a Plomeek levest sem eszi meg a szokatlanul ingerülten viselkedő Spock, aki a vulkáni párzási időszak, a pon farr miatt vissza kell térjen a szülőbolygójára. A felszínen hamar elszabadul a pokol, amikor az elrendelt házasságából menekülni kívánó T’Pring miatt Kirk és Spock halálos párbajra kényszerül. Aktuális adásunk témája a ‘Szerelmi láz’ című epizód. Rövid hírszekció: • Új poszter érkezett a Star Trek: Picard sorozathoz, melyen az egykori kapitány (valamint admirális) kutyája is helyett kapott. • David Mack, a Desperate Hours című Discovery regény írója a Lower Decks rajzfilm tanácsadója lett. Egy másik Star Trek rajzfilmben is közreműködik, de arról még nem beszélhet. • Július 19-én érkezik a Discovery második évadának a soundtrackje: van még helye a filmzenéknek az életünkben? A kibeszélő tartalmából: • A nézők részéről már az első évadban hatalmas érdeklődés mutatkozott Spock háttere iránt, Theodore Sturgeon azonban nem siette el a forgatókönyv kidolgozását: a hosszú ideig írt vulkáni látogatás végül emlékezetes epizódot eredményezett. • Lawrence Montaigne (Stonn) és Mark Lenard, (akik korábban a Balance of Terrorban voltak romulánok) már készenlétbe voltak állítva Spock szerepére, ha esetleg Leonard Nimoy nem vállalja a második évadot. Ez a fizetése körül kialakult vita miatt benne volt a pakliban. Nimoy később a mozifilmeknél is vonakodva vállalta el a szerepet. • A vulkáni kultúra ebben az epizódban kezd kibontakozni, a pon farrhoz tartozó szertartással, a vulkáni tisztelgéssel, és magával a bolygóval itt találkozhatunk először. Az új kulturális elemek mellett Spock, Kirk és McCoy barátsága is kiemelt szerepet kap. • A német cenzúra ezt az epizódot sem kímélte: az első változatba eszközölt módosítások teljesen átformálták a történet lényegét és a pon farr bemutatását.

Amikor a Föderáció és a Romulán Birodalom hosszú idő után ismét összerúgják a port, nem csak a semleges zóna közelében durrognak a fézerek, de az Enterprise hídján is csatasorba áll az előítéletesség: ha az ellenség azonosítására kerül sor, a háborús családból származó Stiles hadnagy nem tesz különbséget a hegyes fülek között. Aktuális adásunkban a "Nincsenek győztesek" című epizódot boncolgatjuk. Hírszekció: - Chris Hemsworth (George Kirk) és Chris Pine (James Kirk) távozhatnak a negyedik Kelvin moziból: a Paramount módosítani szeretné a legutóbb ígért fizetéseket, a két színész egyelőre olajra lépett a megbeszélések helyszínéről. - Picard visszatérésével kapcsolatban Attila is megszólal: a hetvennyolc éves Patrick Stewart, valamint egykori legénységének bizonyos tagjai a Ba’ku-n tett látogatás óta nem hajlandók megöregedni. - Elindult az Űrszekerek közösségi flotta: csapatunkat cikkíróként, vagy adományozóként is támogathatod. - Adásunkban Varga Zolit, a Stargate Command Hungarian Site klubvezetőjét is megszólaltatjuk, aki beavat minket abba, hogy hogyan készülnek az augusztus 25-én esedékes közös eseményünkre, a 38 perc party-ra. A kibeszélő tartalmából: - Tengeralattjáró-harc a Star Trekben: az epizódból azt is megtudjuk, hogy az Enterprise fedélzetén egy fézervezérlő helyiség is üzemel. - Hegyes fülek a csatatér másik oldalán: tudatos döntés, vagy költséghatékony intézkedés a vulkániakkal azonos küllem? - Romulán becsületkódex: kevés idő alatt kiválóan bemutatott, érdekfeszítő faj mutatkozik be az eredeti sorozatban. - A romulán parancsnok bukása nem jelenti azt, hogy Mark Lenard szögre akasztja a füleit: Spock édesapjaként az eredeti sorozatban, valamint Az új nemzedékben is viszont láthatjuk.
In unserer Winterpause gibt es was? Richtig, ein Winter-Special. Traditionell besprechen wir hier immer einen Star Trek Film. So auch dieses mal und deswegen begeben wir uns mit Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock und Pille auf die Reise in ein unentdecktes Land.

Between The Original Series and The Next Generation, how did you express your Star Trek fandom? Siskoid meets with Rob Kelly to talk about the Trek Gap of the 70s and early 80s, a wilderness, but not quite a wasteland. And perhaps, fertile ground for fandom to grow anyway. Plus, Siskoid continues his Trek reviews by covering The Animated Series and the original cast movies, with a little help from his friends! Listen to Episode 16 below!

Star Trek was burning up syndication in 1976, making Paramount millions! The anticipation for some type of Star Trek return was palpable and the release of the album Inside Star Trek seemed like more evidence to that fact. The record is a collection of interviews with members of the cast and audio clips from Gene Roddenberry's college tour. Those actors who appear are William Shatner, DeForest Kelley, Nichelle Nichols and Mark Lenard. Leonard Nimoy was invited to participate but he declined because of his declining relationship with Roddenberry. Also on the album is an interview with Science Fiction author Isaac Asimov. The album was re-released in 1999 with an extended version of the soundtrack for Star Trek: The Motion Picture. In the re-release, five extra tracks were included. Photos, film clips or audio from Roddenberry's college tours are very rare. So having them appear on this album makes it all the more valuable. But it also stands as a remarkable document of Gene’s, Shatner’s, Kelley’s and Nichols’ thoughts about Star Trek at that moment in time in the mid-1970s. From that perspective, Inside Star Trek is a goldmine! The audio clips used in this podcast are the property of Columbia/Legacy Records and Sony Music Entertainment, Inc.
Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery Podcast
Geoff Clarke, co-host of The ApeCast, joins Jack for the second week in a row to talk about Lethe! Specifically, about what Lethe means, what Sarek and Sonic the Hedgehog have in common, how many moons Vulcan has, what Lorca has in his pants, Mark Lenard, and, as an afterthought, stuff like the delicate relationship between Sarek, Michael, and Spock and Lorca sexin’ admirals. Continuity Carlos also has a lot to say to this week, and the wedge between him and Geoff widens. Grab some single malt, throw on some soft jazz and get ready. It’s basically the best thing you’re ever going to hear.

Star Trek: The Animated Series. That most forgotten of Star Trek series. Is it even canon? Is it worth watching?
