In ST II: The Wrath of Khan, Khan tells Chekov (Walter Koenig) that he remembers him despite Koenig not joining the cast until after Khan’s appearance and exile in the episode Space Seed.
No idea if it’s actually true, but I was told TOS was written such that folks with radios, but not a tv, could listen to the show and follow along without the visuals.
Not sure if it’s true, but it feels true and I’ve repeated it several times.

Mark Twain was nonchalantly friends with aliens, robots, and time-travellers. Just like Haruhi Suzumiya

The final episode of Star Trek wasn’t broadcast because NBC was doing a memorial retrospective on Eisenhower

I just did a search. A few months after Eisenhower had died.
I'm surprised NBC still exists. Company's been run by incompetents for most of its existence.

They suits at NBC didn’t like working with Roddenberry and didn’t like spending so much money on the show.
Also, when pitched the name Lucille Ball thought it was a celebrity travel show.
