The Apocalypse Video Trek-Cast returns to discuss the holo-centric Star Trek episode, Hollow Pursuits, which includes the introduction of everyone’s favorite anxiety ridden perv, Lt. Reginald Barclay.
Captain’s Log: Stardate 43807.4
After the successful trial episode depicted in “Measure of a Man”, the Apocalypse Video Trek Cast is now into season 3 of Star Trek: The Next Generation, the season which many consider the peak of Captain Picard and company’s adventures on television. And while I’m confident that my crew will enjoy the mid series classics contained herein, I am slightly worried that the perverted exploits of Lt. Reginald Barclay may cast a shadow on our intrepid heroes, as well as shine at light on my own...shall we say...questionable activities in the holodeck…
I’m your host, Dave, and joining me as we delve into an episode that would make any HR department shudder are fellow Trekkies Mike and Jackie.
Topics covered in this assignment include everything you always wanted to know about the HoloDeck...but were afraid to ask; the bridge crew of the Enterprise apparently has NO TIME for people with anxiety; and finally, we address what is inarguably the most controversial thing from this episode...Guinan’s Cheeto outfit.
