The Star Trek Chronology and Voyages of Imagination both largely follow airdate order for the DS9 era. Does anyone know why they list "The Abandoned" prior to "Second Skin"? (Chron pp. 224-225; VOI p. 747) This doesn't match prod or air order.

Can we please retire the complaint about companies making something "no one asked for"? How boring would things be if the only "new" things we got were produced by popular demand?? Products (including shows) will live and die based on if enough find and *like* them, not if they *requested* them.

Is #StarTrekLowerDecks "Warp Your Own Way" the first piece of tie-in fiction to ever win a Hugo award? Have any others even been *nominated* other than Serenity: Better Days? I haven't done a thorough search of the novels, novelettes, etc., but at a glance I'm not seeing anything.

@gaghyogi49.bsky.social Any observations about that big transparent model ship in Picard's ready room in "Lessons"?

Started reading PAD's work when I was seven years old and he's still one of my favorite authors. One of the greats.
Sad to learn we lost Peter David yesterday. Such a huge part of my childhood from Spider-man 2099 to his X-Factor run, but I’ll always remember him for the TNG novel Vendetta. Blew my mind at the time and was the thing that finally got me interested in TOS. RIP

I think @mariobrothblog.bsky.social is to Mario what @gaghyogi49.bsky.social is to Star Trek, and I wonder how many other franchises have a standout detail-obsessed German superfan. (This is meant as a genuine compliment to both.)

I get why "Family" (TNG prod 4x04) aired as 4x02, but any idea why "Brothers" (TNG prod 4x03) aired before "Suddenly Human" (TNG prod 4x02)? @larrynemecek.bsky.social ?

The Chronology by @mikeokuda.bsky.social, which normally follows production order, uses the airdate order here as well.

Today, I am a guest on Continuing Conversations, the official podcast of the Star Trek Adventures #TTRPG. We talk about the half decade I spent covering #StarTrek, and then we segued into what became a 2-episode discussion of the method I use to repurpose Hollywood structure to plot novels.

Fun #StarTrek fact and possible Mandela Effect:

"Today is a good day to die" is never said in #StarTrekTheNextGeneration

Worf says that phrase in Star Trek: First Contact and twice in DS9. It's used once in Voyager and at least twice in Discovery; possibly more in other recent shows. (1/5)

I hope @idwpublishing.bsky.social are doing all they can to fix the problem of issues of #StarTrekLowerDecks not being included in people's subscriptions, because I'm certain they're losing sales because people subscribed and then just never received another issue. www.amazon.com/dp/B0DK9KNPRJ

Why does Disney keep making live-action remakes when they know what people really need is Muppet remakes?

If you aren't already reading #StarTrekLowerDecks from @idwpublishing.bsky.social by @ryannorth.ca you're missing out, not only on something special, but on something clearly written by a guy who spent quality time flipping through the Star Trek Encyclopedia noting the Buckaroo Banzai references

While it's not at the top of the charts, #StarTrekProdigy season 2 is in the upper quarter of all #Netflix shows not available globally. Will that be enough to #SetACourseForSeason3? I hope so. We could use more complex, well-rounded, family-friendly content. And it's just a great show.

Wish I had thought to ask you about this while you were looking for questions for Star Trek Explorer @larrynemecek.bsky.social , but do you know anything about the Star Trek opera that was briefly planned as part of the 25th anniversary celebrations? Robert Greenberger mentioned it a few times.
