THIS VOYAGE, the Treksperts, MARK A. ALTMAN (showrunner, Pandora, The Librarians, Castle) and DAREN DOCHTERMAN (visual effects supervisor, Star Trek: The Motion Picture - Director's Edition) are joined by legendary director ROBERT BUTLER as he discusses shooting "The Cage" for Gene Roddenberry, the first Star Trek pilot, along with his incredible TV career directing the pilots for BATMAN, HOGAN'S HEROES, MOONLIGHTING, HILL STREET BLUES, LOIS & CLARK and, yes, LANCER (There is a reason Bob is James Stacey's favorite director!). May you find your way as pleasant...
