[edit] Highlight Reel
After a little google research, every use I can find of "Plato's Stepchildren" as a title for a highlight reel is authored by someone with the same name as the user who wrote that part of the article. Someone who thinks he's clever is trying to get his oh-so-clever wit into the lexicon. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.180.46.178 (talk) 13:30, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
I #think# when the BBC showed the original series a while ago this was one of the three episodes they decided not to broadcast.
- It wasn't shown in the original screenings back in the late 1960s/early 1970s or in the repeat runs. The 1992-1994 repeats of the entire TOS included all three previously unshown episodes. Timrollpickering 11:30, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] The Kiss
So did Shatner and Nichols actually kiss, even though it was not seen on screen? NorthernThunder 09:24, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
- Of course, in all that talk about inter-racial - is hispanic a race ? And does half-French count as non-white ? -- Beardo 08:06, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Who wrote Maiden Wine?
Does Spok's Maiden Wine song come from some Star Trek writer's head, or is it cribbed from some old book? Google only seems to turn up this episode, but I wouldn't necessarily expect it to turn up a line from an old medieval ballad or whatnot. -- Epastore 15:25, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Spock/Uhura Trivia Point
I made a slight correction to the blurb about Spock being scripted to kiss Uhura. Shatner discussed that in "Star Trek Memories," and I'm 99% certain that he and/or Nichelle said it was supposed to be Kirk/Uhura in the original script, that the Spock/Uhura change was suggested (or may have even been temporarily implemented) during all the fights over that scene, and that Shatner finally put his foot down and said, "No, I'm doing it." Unfortunately I don't have a copy of "Star Trek Memories" handy any more - I loaned it to someone I haven't seen in about five years - but if anyone else still has a copy I know it's all in there somewhere, so that we can get that point properly cited (and be 100% certain it's correct). --Zequist 15:13, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
