Turnabout Intruder.

After 80 produced episodes, Star Trek bid us farewell on June 3, 1969, with one of the most bizarre stories of the series. It was a finale filled with moaning, out-of-character acting, and a fab bass line. With one last shot, there's a bit of everything for TOS fans in what's more a clearing house for William Shatner's acting than an actual finale. In this episode of The Ready Room we're joined by our Managing Editor Charlynn Schmiedt, TOS Editor Drew Stewart, and Jennie Zell of Dork Trek, Playing Doctor, and Broadcast to explore "Turnabout Intruder" and why it's a wicked fun romp that leaves you feeling like Gene Roddenberry gave you the Winnie.

In news we discuss Destination Star Trek London and a special con exclusive from Star Trek The Official Magazine, Haynes Publishing's Klingon Bird-of-Prey owner's manual, a possible Paramount theme park in England, the 2013 Star Trek wall calendars, StarTrek.com's poll of the best series opening credits, and we reveal the hidden message that can be found in the Deep Space Nine theme music.
