Checik out this 1976 Start Trek interview

[trekgeezer]

Don't know how many of you remember Tom Snyder and the Tomorrow show.

Check out the leisure suits on Kelly, Doohan, and Koenig.  This also features the rantings of Harlan Ellison (wearing a purple sport coat and sporting what looks like a mullet).

 Harlan Ellison is an overated blowhard. The old STAR TREK was a great show...and compared to the sci-fi on TV at the time...(LOST IN SPACE,LAND of the GIANTS) it was dam good! And,let's face it Ellison, it's only a TV show! It was great fun,and how many other sci-fi TV shows,even since the original ST,stand up to this day as well? SPACE:1999? BATTLESTAR GALLACTICA? BAH! They had better FX...but TREK had heart...and that's what made it what it is! I can't stand the TREK spin-offs (too talky) but the original was great fun,and still is! Thanks for posting this!

(is it just me,or is Tom Snyder the most annoying interviewer on Earth? I woulda told Ellison to shut-up,and let Scotty do all the talking!)

Thank you TG! The comments were almost as much fun as the time warp experience.

RCM:    Could not agree more.

As for Mr. Ellison, two words: "The Oscar".  'Nuff said.
