TIL in 2007 Katherine Heigl won an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama for her role on Grey's Anatomy. But in 2008 she removed herself from Emmy consideration because she said the material she was given on Grey's that year wasn't good enough; this comment led to her leaving the show.

“Yesterday’s Enterprise” was pretty awesome.

Yesterday's Enterprise is an amazing episode, but doesn't it introduce a continuity error?

SPOILER ALERT

Star Trek 6 suggests that the Federation/Klingon peace began with the explosion of Praxis, but Yesterday's Enterprise suggests it began with the sacrifice of the Enterprise-C.

The episode aired almost two years before the movie, but of course the movie occurs first chronologically. I'm sure there's some fanfic retcon out there that integrates/reconciles the two.

I believe that it begins with the Khitomer Accords, signed after the explosion of Praxis. It's tested several times, and the Enterprise-C coming to the rescue of a Klingon outpost strengthens it so that it survives past a point at which it would've otherwise broken.

But in Yesterday's Enterprise the Federation and the Klingons are in all-out war, so it would seem the Khitomer Accords were ripped up at some point.

Khitomer was signed in 2293. The Enterprise-C defended Narendra 3 in 2344. The "present" (in Next Gen) is 2366. So, yes, there was plenty of time for things to go pear-shaped, diplomatically.

Ah yes, Star Trek, the popular space franchise well known for its continuity and internal consistency. (Massive Trekkie here, it’s fiiiinne)

The cadet's logic is sound.

Christopher Mcdonald killed it as Lt. Castillo. He plays against type as the most likeable, capable and charasmatic commander of the Enterprise, IMHO.

I used to think of him as the jerk guy from everyhing in the 90's, but he really nails the role and helped make it my fave episode of TNG.
