A question I'd like to bring up is do we want topics for individual episodes, or do we want to break them into monthly or seasonal topics with individual threads for each episode? (Or just stuff them in TV club?)

While there is a plot that both starts and wraps up - sort of, it is still very evident that everything is part of a greater worldbuilding. It properly feels like we are just thrown into the middle of things, with plenty of alliances, previous wars and people with interesting back stories we get glimpses off. The political aspects is what really gets established here, with the conflict between orders from Earth and the difficult diplomatic problems needing to be dealt with far away from home. It has been so many years that I can't remember many specifics, but it all feels very familiar.

...i think individual topics work best so folks can pick through them at their own pace, especially if we're only doing one episode per week...

Did Harlan Ellison become an old crank during his tenure on the series or was he always a turd?
