And again, there were those three Emmys. The direct-to-syndication arrangement clearly worked out well for them, too. I mean, what other new material was available for those fringe networks to buy at that point that already came stamped with a proven brand? Trek was easy money.The Armchair Squidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13509001761075530940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8586403344533829376.post-89272385294921343812019-12-10T19:06:05.049-05:002019-12-10T19:06:05.049-05:00I suppose not.I suppose not.The Armchair Squidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13509001761075530940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8586403344533829376.post-28049954118634692692019-12-10T19:05:51.070-05:002019-12-10T19:05:51.070-05:00I hope you will.I hope you will.The Armchair Squidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13509001761075530940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8586403344533829376.post-21452964107638814502019-12-10T19:05:38.112-05:002019-12-10T19:05:38.112-05:00Me, too.

Sounds like someone needs to do a biopic or something about Tierney, with pulling a knife on Jerry as the climax.<br /><br />I have to wonder how much this one episode contributed to the survival of TNG past the first season.
