Christmas Hallmark Star Trek<\/i> Ornaments<\/b><\/p>\n
Three new Star Trek<\/i> ornaments can been seen online at Hallmark.com<\/a>. The first new ornament is a Klingon Battle Cruiser that lights up and is battery operated. <\/p>\n A radiation-scarred Captain Christopher Pike is featured on the second ornament, along with Kirk and Spock. This ornament has a conversation between Kirk and Spock taken from The Menagerie, and Pike’s chair lights up.<\/p>\n The third ornament is a Starfleet Phaser. The phaser ornament has a sound clip between Kirk and Spock taken from “Conscience of the King,” as well as the sound of a phaser on overload.<\/p>\n The ornaments will appear this summer, and in the autumn. Jonja<\/a> interviewed Star Trek: Voyager<\/b>‘s Ethan Phillips<\/b> (Neelix) and Robert Picardo<\/b> (EMH), who discussed Benson, Stargate Atlantis<\/i> and Star Trek: Voyager<\/i>.<\/p>\n The two joked about their time on Voyager<\/i>, claiming that Robert Beltran<\/b> (Chakotay) was the biggest goof-off on the set and that Tim Russ<\/b> was a practical joker. “The man, the myth, the methane,” said Picardo, referring to Russ’s habit of deliberately passing gas on the set.<\/p>\n Takei on Trek’s Continued Appeal<\/b><\/p>\n George Takei<\/b> (Sulu) spoke with Total Sci-fi<\/a>, giving his opinion regarding why Star Trek<\/i> has lasted so long and giving his opinions regarding the first six Star Trek<\/i> movies. “I’ve given it some thought,” he said, “and at its core is Gene Roddenberry<\/b>‘s philosophy about looking to the future with confidence and optimism: confidence in our problem solving capabilities and our inventive genius.”<\/p>\n Takei also discussed the first six original series movies, which have just been released on Blu-Ray. His favorite was Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country<\/b>, due to Sulu having his own command in that movie. Takei’s least favorite is Star Trek V: The Final Frontier<\/i>. “[The Final Frontier<\/i>] was directed by Captain Ego himself,” said Takei, taking a dig at William Shatner<\/b>. “I think the audience agreed it was the weakest too. It was a disaster at the box office. The powers that be almost didn’t make another movie after that, but thankfully they changed their mind.”<\/p>\n Mulgrew to Appear in Mercy<\/i> This Fall<\/p>\n <\/b>Totally Kate<\/a> reports that Mercy<\/i>, a show about a group of nurses out of Iraq, in which Mulgrew plays a mother, has been picked up by NBC according to an article in Variety<\/a>. “These are all shows that demanded to be put on the air,” said NBC Entertainment\/Universal Media Studios co-chair Ben Silverman<\/b>. “Both our East and West coast offices uniformly loved them. Everyone’s questioning NBC’s commitment to programming, but we’re quadrupling down.”<\/p>\n New Kelley Book<\/b><\/p>\n Kristine M. Smith<\/b>, the author of Deforest Kelley, A Harvest of Memories<\/i>, has published another book about the actor as reported at her website<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Christmas Hallmark Star Trek Ornaments Three new Star Trek ornaments can been seen online at…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2443],"tags":[2676,2677,2403,2678,2426,2679,2415],"class_list":["post-5608","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-merchandise","tag-hallmark","tag-kelley","tag-mulgrew","tag-phillips","tag-picardo","tag-smith","tag-takei"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","newsphere-slider-full":"","newsphere-featured":"","newsphere-medium":""},"author_info":{"display_name":"T'Bonz","author_link":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/author\/tbonz\/"},"category_info":"Merchandise<\/a>","tag_info":"Merchandise","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5608","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5608"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5608\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6934,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5608\/revisions\/6934"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5608"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5608"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5608"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
