All Access Star Trek - A TrekMovie.com Podcast

Tony is back this week, but with bronchitis lingering, he and Laurie are keeping this episode short, focusing entirely on Strange New Worlds. Tony does weigh in on last week’s puppet episode (because it was the puppet episode!), and then they launch into their review of this week’s episode, “Off-Hour,” which felt like good old-fashioned Star Trek. A good time was had by all.

Tony is out this week, so Laurie and guest co-host Dr. Ann Marie Segal (The 7th Rule, Creation Entertainment) take on the puppet episode! They start with a chat about Star Trek Las Vegas, then jump into their review of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds‘ “Level-Five Transporter Accident,” which they both found surprisingly enjoyable. They also listen to Laurie’s interview with enthusiastic guest stars Joe Lo Truglio and Rachael Harris.

Anthony and Laurie give a quick recap of Star Trek Las Vegas, then talk through the news: The Pitt cast is doing a Star Trek table read, The Center Seat documentary is getting a second season and there’s a new Shatner doc on the way from Trekspert Mark Altman, Star Trek movies are rereleasing in theaters, and Pluto TV is launching new pop-up Trek channels. In the meantime, Mike McMahan has been talking about his hopes for a Lower Decks movie. Then it’s time to review the latest Strange New Worlds episode “A Case of Chiaroscuro,” which they have mixed feelings about. They wrap up with a quick look at Tony’s appearance on Virtual Trek Con and Laurie’s first script for Ranking with Roddenberry..

In this supplemental episode, Tony interviews Martin Quinn (Scotty) and Laurie interviews Dave Foley (Dendru) about the latest Star Trek: Strange New Worlds episode, “Human Best Friend.”

Anthony and Laurie are at the big Trek to Vegas convention this week, so there’s no news this week as they pre-recorded their review. They talk about Star Trek: Strange New Worlds‘ latest episode. “Human Best Friend,” digging into the stories they liked (Ortegas/Scotty), the comedy that really worked, and the areas where they felt it didn’t. A mixed bag! Laurie also briefly mention her favorite moment (which she forgot to mention last week) from Michael Dorn’s episode of Dropping Names with Brent and Jonny. You can listen to our panel at STLV here, and look for a supplemental episode tomorrow, featuring interviews with Martin Quinn (Scotty) and guest star Dave Foley. (Kids in the Hall! News Radio!)
