The Nexus #121: "Unification" Parts 1 & 2 (Patreon)

It's the hot, sweaty, August edition of our Star Trek chat show, The Nexus, and this month, we're tackling a super-historic TNG two-parter, "Unification"!

Originally airing November 2 and 9, 1991, this blockbuster two-parter is the one where our intrepid Enterprise crew sets out on a dangerous covert mission into Romulan space where they must assess whether or not Ambassador Spock, yes, that Spock, has defected to the Romulans. These two episodes are remembered as being the best of three times major TOS characters crossed over onto TNG due to the fact we had both Leonard Nimoy reprising his role as Spock for the first time on the series, as well as Mark Lenard returning (for the final time) as Spock's father, Sarek. And yes, every time we go to write that man's name, the computer tries to auto-correct to Shrek!
