Divided We Stand

Oh, another ambush of reflugicans is happening? I'll try to contain my excitement.

I enjoy watching comments on AoS about it. That's as deep into it as I can get.

Just finished watching Star Trek Continues episode 5, "Divided We Stand," where Kirk and McCoy get thrust back into the US Civil War.

Always enjoy when commenters here re-fight the "unpleasantness." I learn something every time. Although there are things to argue about in this episode (esp for those who don't think much of Lincoln), I thought in most ways in this show they did a good job. We sure did lose a lot of good humanity.

ST Continues is the best of the Trek OS re-creations, especially with the casting coup of Doohan's son as "Scotty," and they seem to have a good budget. Especially notable in this ep was the reference to the real-life Union officer, James T. Kirk.

Nothing like having half a century of Trek fandom behind you to build from.
