Neat!
Two more "lost" First Doctor episodes have been announced to be found. "The Dalek Master Plan" now has 5 episodes out of the original 12. Steven's actor was driven to a cinema under false pretences for a surprise viewing. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4g7kwq1k11o

This isn't really a link, but...
I subscribe to Dave Barry's mailing list. The most recent newsletter talks about the Oscars... Who will win Best Picture this year? Will it be “Encounter at Farpoint,” or “The Naked Now,” or “Code of Honor,” or even “The Last Outpost?” Probably not, because these are not Oscar-nominated movies. These are the titles of the first four episodes of season one (1987-88) of the TV series Star Trek: The Next Generation. I’m just listing them here to drive home the point that the average person such as (no offense) yourself is pretty much oblivious to what the film industry is up to these days. Before this was a mention of the 2024 Best Picture winner Anora, which I'd never heard of but certainly sounds like the name of a Star Trek planet, doesn't it? Looking back on the award winners, I'd have to go back to 2003's LOTR The Return of the King to have seen a winner. If we're talking nominees, just 2018 for Black Panther.

I very much would not know about the existence of more than a couple of movies here or there if I weren't in hobby-oriented spaces.

TOS-themed shirt that's a reference to the classic A New Hope poster
I'm annoyed that everything is TOS except for TWOK Khan. Couldn't they be consistent? Cute reference, though.

An image of a retired Jonathan Archer watching the construction of the 1701
1. That ain't Jonathan Archer. Not even close. 2. The Monster Maroon wasn't in use in 2245. Furthermore that isn't even a proper Monster Maroon. 3. That ain't the 1701. You'd think AI would be trained enough to generate the 1701 on command by now.

Steve Shives reviews "Blink of an Eye"
If you're a follower of SFDebris, you know that Chuck HATES this episode. Steve was much more positive. While I agree with Chuck that a few of the guest stars were underwhelming, I have to counter it with the knowledge that there's not much to do with the roles when you only have one scene, maybe a minute long. On one set, with one other actor. I'm sure I could write whole screeds of complaints about the Treknobabble used to justify this planets existence, my only big problem is the "walking among the frozen crew until time notices them" bit. There should've been turbulence as their ship transitioned to Voyager's timeframe, and that's what killed the woman (Terrina, FYI). Probably the ship would've been destroyed and Gotana-Retz gets an emergency beamout, returning to the planet in a specially-modified escape pod.
