Alamin Yohannes Jan 30, 2018 Zachary Quinto is picking up where Leonard Nimoy left off, again. In a world full of reboots and revivals, the return of In Search Of… has the added bonus of Star Trek nostalgia and a heartwarming passing of the baton between Nimoy and Quinto. According to Deadline, the 1970s franchise In Search Of is being rebooted. The show, which was at one-time hosted by Nimoy, will now be hosted by Quinto. Each episode will follow Quinto as he attempts to find the truth in some the world’s unexplained phenomena. Witnesses will share their experience, scholars will discuss from a place of expertise and demonstrations will help bridge potential gap in the viewer’s knowledge. The original series ran from 1997-1982 with Rod Serling as the original host, but Nimoy took over after Serling passed away. “In the spirit of my late dear friend Leonard Nimoy, we intend to honor and perpetuate his endless curiosity about the world – and universe – in which we live,” Quinto said in a statement. Quinto took over the role of Spock in a series of Star Trek films starting in 2009, a role which Nimoy, who passed away in 2015, was known for. “In the ‘70s and ‘80s, the legendary Leonard Nimoy captivated viewers by transporting them through the world of unsolved mysteries and paranormal phenomena,” said Eli Lehrer, Executive Vice President of Programming, History. Part of Nimoy’s success as host came from his personal love for investigating the mysteries of the world. William Shatner wrote, “While digging into Van Gogh’s life, he actually discovered hospital records that indicated the painter had suffered from epilepsy, rather than being insane,” in his 2016 book Leonard. Nimoy later did an episode of In Search Of called “In Search Of Vincent van Gogh.” There is no airdate for the 10-episode series at this time. |

'Star Trek: Discovery' Seemingly confirms a longstanding theory about Klingon Anatomy
comicbook.com Jamie Lovett Feb 19, 2018 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2S6facaFFI The first season finale of Star Trek: Discovery was full of twists and surprises and, along the way, it seems to have confirmed one long-standing fan theory about Klingon anatomy. As far back as Star Trek: The Next Generation, it has been said that Klingon anatomy includes a redundant system of organs, including an eight-chamber heart and two livers. These extra organs contribute to how formidable Klingons are in combat. For years, Star Trek have speculated about what this could mean for Klingon sex organs. After all, if they have an extra of all of their other organs, why not their genitalia? In other words, Star Trek fans have long wondered if male Klingons have two penises. Star Trek: Discovery’s season finale seems to have confirmed that to be the case. In the episode “Will You Take My Hand?” an away team led by Terran Emperor Phillipa Georgiou that includes Michael Burnham, Ash Tyler, and Sylvia Tilly beams down to the Klingon home planet of Qo’noS, specifically to an outpost controlled by Orions. The Orions maintain the outpost to trade, but there are also seedy dens that essentially amount to stripper clubs. These spots serve alcohol and at one point the Discovery crew passes by a Klingon relieving himself on an outside wall. This moment is notable since it clearly shows two streams of urine, indicating that the Klingon has two penises. Star Trek: Discovery writers Erika Lippoldt and Bo Yeon Kim were guests on a recent episode of The Alpha Quadrant podcast, and Yeon Kim specifically addressed the redundant penis question. “That was an ongoing writers’ room debate,” Yeon Kim says. “According to canon, Klingons have two organs, they have two of everything, right? So we had this debate. When we say two of everything, does that include the penis? I think this was something that [director Akiva Goldsman] really liked the notion of. He just kept joking, ‘Klingons have two dicks, Klingons have two dicks.’ And then finally showed it on television.” And so this very specific Star Trek fan theory now seems to have become canon. |
