171: Android Cosmetics

With the launch and recent attention of Star Trek: Deep
Space 9, the writers wanted to send a message that this
show, The Next Generation, was alive and well and continuing
to grow. So season 5 ended with a cliffhanger to prove this
point. "Time's Arrow, Part II" was Emmy nominated for outstanding
sound editing and received the Emmy Award for outstanding costume
design and for outstanding hairstyling for a series in 1993.


 


In this episode of Earl Grey, hosts Richard Marquez and Amy
Nelson are joined with Associate Producer Justin Oser to discuss
Season 5 cliff hanger Time's Arrow Part I and season 6 opener
Time's Arrow Part II. Data's story brings many issues to talk
about like humanity with respect to mortality and the social
make-up of the 24th century when compared to the 20th century.
Yet again, Joe Menosky brings a fresh and interesting story
to Star Trek: The Next Generation.
