Rejected video for First Contact Day post
Apr. 5th, 2025 03:42 pmI decided this was too gross for 'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' for First Contact Day, a holiday special and I found a video I liked better, so I'm inflicting it on you.
Image I could have used...
Sep. 8th, 2024 12:50 pm...in Star Trek vs. Star Wars at the 2024 Emmy Awards for Star Trek Day but found one more visually striking and informative.

Rejected image for Hugo Awards post
Aug. 4th, 2024 02:39 pmI decided to use an image I created myself for 'Barbie,' 'Poor Things,' 'Doctor Who,' and 'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' among Hugo nominees for dramatic presentations.

If not for the Wayback Wednesday meme, I'd probably have used this as the preview image for My Saturn Awards votes vs. winners for Wayback 'Wednesday'.


I had one that showed the actor winners that I used in My Saturn Awards votes vs. winners for Wayback 'Wednesday' instead.


I found the following image for 'Star Trek' vs. 'Star Wars' at the 51st Saturn Awards, but decided to make my own anyway.


Rejected image for Star Trek Day
Sep. 8th, 2023 05:01 pmI had the following image in Celebrate Star Trek Day with two Emmy nominations for 'Star Trek: Picard', then decided to use an image about Star Trek Day instead.

I went in a direction that didn't need this video in 'The Klingon Hamlet' and Klingons quoting Shakespeare for Talk Like Shakespeare Day.
This video didn't make the cut for 'Star Trek' vs. 'Star Wars' in streaming science fiction at the 2022 Saturn Awards, so I'm sharing it here.
Another comment on a TV series trailer
Mar. 10th, 2022 08:12 amSomeone quipped "Must hold the record for the largest gap between pilot episode and series commission" about this trailer, referring to the first "Star Trek" pilot "The Cage." I responded "That pilot was ahead of its time. We just didn't know how far ahead of its time it was until now."
Excised video from Shatner in Space post
Oct. 14th, 2021 09:22 amI didn't use Jimmy Fallon's monologue William Shatner Rides Bezos’ Phallic Rocket to Space in Jimmy Kimmel on William Shatner going into space.
Jimmy addresses William Shatner's trip to space aboard Jeff Bezos' phallic-shaped rocket.I nearly picked that one because it had a good preview image. Otherwise, it serves as a good example of why I prefer late-night talk show hosts whose humor has a little more bite.

This past February, Coffee Party USA invited its supporters to stream the political TV series on the Golden Coffee Cups shortlist while staying safe at home. For the past four months, the members and volunteers of Coffee Party USA did just that. For the past three weeks, they voted on the nominees. Today, Coffee Party USA announces the nominees for the 2019-2020 Golden Coffee Cups for television.
After the preliminary round of voting, Saturday Night Live leads with four nominations, one for Best Political Comedy and three for Best TV President. Madam Secretary, Outlander, The Handmaid’s Tale, and Watchmen all earned two nominations each. The remaining 29 shows have one nomination apiece.
