[rec.arts.startrek.info] Prime Time Live observations

brown@vidiot.UUCP (Vidiot) (10/11/90)

After I edited the "Prime Time Live" tape, I went back and looked at the
clapper board information.  Here is what I was able to read:

	Director: L. Landau
	Episode: 40274-182
	Date: 9-19-90

There was a scene number, but it is unimportant.  If you want to know what
what it is, look at the tape, as it is large enough.  (I think it was 20A)

But, the 40274-182 really opened up my eyes.  While watching "Best of Both
Worlds Part II", I was wondering where the 40273 number came from on the
screen that was on while talking with Admiral Hanson.  Maybe that episode
was slated as 40273-175.  I think we just learned a little more about where
these numbers and things come from.  I just love trying to find out these
little inside jokes.

The program also appears to prove the theory about what they showed being the
Riker Van Winkle episode.  Also, the shooting date matches with the probable
air date; two months after shooting.

Another other thoughts?

[Note - maybe for consistency sake, they've made the episode's Stardate a
	part of the production number?  I don't have an episode list with
	Stardates that I can refer to, but the numbers strike me as being
	about right.  Can anyone confirm or refute? - ed.]
