Let’s make sure the non Canadians aren’t misled. (And provide authentic images.)

This is what a tin of maple syrup from Quebec looks like.

Ontario also has a lot of sugar bush. Here’s what a standard jug looks like.

Where real syrup comes from…

With Spock as a child with his selát - yes that’s it. It got a lot of praise from child development experts and parents for dealing with the difficult topic of a pet’s death. It was a children’s show first.

It’s 70s Saturday morning animation in the trendy hot pink, orange, lime green and purple of the psychedelic era.

It’s got a lot of episodes written by TOS writers that got reworked from live action, but also some very out there original stuff. Roddenberry really pushed the writers to take advantage of the animated medium.

It’s trippy and worth your time. A couple of episodes, including Yesteryear, are S-tier.

It really is worth the rewatch.

I have the recently published Official Guide by Aaron Harvey and Rich Schepis. It’s really good.

And TrekCore as a full set of BlueRay screencaps just waiting to be memed.

I note that you didn’t even include any of the characters Doohan voiced in TAS.

In addition to Scotty, he voiced just about every other male character, crew or guest, other than Kirk, Spock, McCoy & Sulu.

Unless of course, the earworm is native to Ceti-Alpha.

We had one that would push the bowl or plate off the mat and into the middle of the floor.

Replaced the mat with a small plastic food service tray. Which off course proved easier to slide across the floor.

Ignoring the behaviour is the only solution, but it takes cats 2 weeks to believe any behaviour changes are real. Why did we leave to fall for patient predators as pets?

I heard that.

What would Ferengi think about earworms?

They tried it but it wasn’t dishonourable.

Apparently, the alternate version will be a bonus on the DVD/BlueRay set.

It was popular. Don’t let those brigading against the mere idea of a musical distort the facts.

Some of the review sites like IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes ended up with average scores in the 7/70% range merely because of the large number of 1/10 votes.

If you check out the vote distribution, it was a small but very vocal minority who opposed the episode on principle, who created the impression that it wasn’t well received by the fandom.

Personally, I’m not a huge fan of American musicals, but I enjoyed and have certainly included it in my rewatches already.
