It’s Cayuga, as per the closed captioning, and it’s likely no coincidence. As I noted in my annotations, the Cayuga first appeared in “A Quality of Mercy”, which shares a title with a 1961 Twilight Zone episode starring Leonard Nimoy. And TZ was produced by Serling’s production company, Cayuga Productions.
Yes, I noticed that in your annotations over at... the other place. Interestingly enough, Roddenberry spoke at a memorial for Serling in 1975
I post them as a stand-alone in c/DaystromInstitute every week now.
Thank you!
For better or worse, I'm not sure "starring" is quite the right description. Nimoy has like three lines and a couple minutes of screen time. I found it rather jarring to recognize Nimoy early in the episode and then see so little of him after.
Featuring, perhaps.
