 Watched the remastered version of Man Trap last night. Always been one of my favorite episodes. Noticed Alfred Ryder was in it. He was excellent in the three episodes of The Invaders that he was in.

 I watched That Which Survives earlier tonight on YouTube, a season three ST episode from the original series. Lee Meriwether was in this episode, portraying "Losira". I forgot what a beautiful woman she was. She was Miss America 1955 and also starred as "Catwoman" in an at least one episode of the 1966 "Batman" TV series.

 I think that I may still need to see that episode for the first time.

 A ST TOS season two episode, called "A Private Little War": http://www.imdb.com/video/cbs/vi2168782873/

Nancy Kovak plays "Nona" in this episode. She was a hottie! You'll also see, Gregg a very cool looking creature called the "Mugato", a white, ape like creature.

 Ah yes. Good episode. Supposedly the Mugato was the inspiration for the Mugato character in Zoolander.

 Here's my question to you, Gregg: if you were a crew member on a starship in Starfleet and the ship was in a perilous predicament...which captain would you want on the bridge dealing with the situation: James T. Kirk or Jean Luc Picard?

I think that if it were more of a dangerous combat situation; an un-winnable battle, I would want Captain Kirk to be there. There's no such thing as an un-winnable battle for him. I'd feel secure knowing that he would figure out some way of getting us out of there alive.

However, if it were more of a dangerous political situation, I would probably go for Picard. He's more of a diplomat, and he's just the man I'd want negotiating with powerful aliens.

So I guess it would depend on the situation. Kirk is pretty much unstoppable. But Picard is a bit more responsible. He'd be more likely to not let his ego get in the way of his morals, which could result in his saving more lives overall. Tough call. Tough call.

But honestly, I think I would still go with Kirk. He's a lot more likely to try something, anything, no matter how crazy it is. He would definitely do something immediately. And it will usually work.

 Gregg, who do you consider the better First Officer, overall: CDR Spock from TOS or Commander William Riker from ST-TNG? And why?

As much as I like Riker, Spock wins. He's superior in just about every way. He's extremely intelligent(much more so than any human), strong, wise, and perfectly willing to sacrifice himself in defense of the ship and its crew. He doesn't let his emotions cloud his judgment, and he will go up against the captain if necessary.

Riker deserves plenty of credit, though. As we've seen in the war games episode of TNG, he is a master of taking limited resources and defeating a highly superior foe. As Worf would put it, he has an abundance of "guile." He's a deeply human individual. Tough. Strong. Morally unwavering. But he can't really stand up to Spock.


On a separate note, I've been looking at the Blu-ray releases of seasons 1 and 2 of the original series, and man do they look awesome. I don't have a blu-ray player yet, or an HD television, but I'm very tempted to just buy these box sets anyway. I love that they've made it so you can easily switch between the remastered and original versions as you watch an episode. And I love that in the season 2 box set, they've included the "Trials and Tribble-ations" episode from Star Trek: DS9. Hopefully it's in high-def. That's one of my absolute favorite episodes from DS9. Anyone who is a fan of the "Trouble With Tribbles" episode from the original series would enjoy it. They do an amazing job of putting the DS9 crew right in the middle of the episode.

 I've seen that season five DS9 episode you refer to, Gregg in which Sisko and a few others from DS9 travel back in time to 2268. Captain Ben Sisko was an admitted huge fan of James Kirk. He also commented on how successful Kirk was with the ladies. ( tongue-1 ) The scene where Sisko actually meets Kirk briefly on the bridge was awesome. thumbz up

 Watched Charlie X for the first time ever today. There were a couple of odd scenes that felt out of place compared to the rest of the show, but overall it was a good episode.
