"More Tribbles, More Troubles"

It was the first episode of TAS that I watched, and it was pretty cute.

TAS: the forum nobody remembered...

There were actually some cool episodes that I caught as a kid.

I remember a couple of them vaugely. The crew was wearing some kind of "life support" belt, which I thought was cool, but VERY risky if it fails. Then the appearance of the first holo deck on their "rec" deck.

Honestly I remember liking Arex, missing Chekov, and liking an episode with Klingons. I really remember very little, other than catching them on Nickelodeon when I was probably 5 of 6 at the oldest.

Nope, due to budget constraints (how the F|_|CK do you reply to something in TAS within a minute of posting?!) he wasn't on.

Not quite. Was more about them not wanting to pay all the regulars for voices. He was junior member, so he got cut.

Why?

They had a limited budget so they worked with what they had. They let him write an episode so he could be included.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Honestly, James Doohan did half the voices for the show, so they clearly just didn't have any money to spare. :(

Aye, I'm not surprised Chekov was cut.
