Come again?
I just noticed something: LD is the only current ST series with NO CALENDAR!

Someone call Paramount, I think we got a bestseller here …
We could have calenders for each show (Twelve months of Janeway/Chakotay!)
OT: Now the JC Collective wants it on Prodigy (Sorry, kids ... Janeway and Chuckles aren't going to be doing the nasty on a kids TV show).
Mulgrew didn't allow it on Voyager (Captains aren't supposed to be sleeping with their first officers).
Why bring it to Prodigy?

This is already missing Enterprise, so no it doesn‘t work. Interesting idea, though.
Put ENT on JAN then do a TOS / TAS collage for FEB.
Agreed. At first it was excusable, but they're putting in content from STO and ships that have never really had screen time at all. At this point, it seems purposeful.
I realize they don't want to make a mistake and drive way customers like they did with the 02 calendar, but at this point it seems deliberate.

No! I failed before I truly began...
I always had trouble with the ornament of Mirror Spock forcefully mind-melding with Dr. McCoy. That's basically a Christmas tree ornament depicting rape.
I don't think I even noticed that one. 2011, I see. I noticed last year and this year's whole set of MU ornaments, and decided to ignore them. I also ignored the Borg cube, the injured Pike, and the Gorn attacking Kirk.
Is the Franklin supposed to be heavily weathered? Or did the tissue paper mine was packed in have some nasty chemical interactions with the finish?

What happened in 02?
a lot of people did not like it. It was done, I feel, more artistically than the others, but for people who bought the calendar primarily to see starships, some felt it disappointing.
IIRC, the 2002 Ships of the Line calendar was the one time they did it as a "traditional calendar" rather than the "Landscape format" that all the others have been done in, right?
Indeed. I had (until I just now pulled my archive of every ST calendar I've ever had) mistakenly thought the first several years had been in a conventional format. And yes, the 2002 art was of a decidedly freer nature than in other years, but it was only the second year of SOTL calendars, so the pattern was not yet firmly established.
I will note that the first one, in 2001, had slightly larger calendar panels (with previous and next months) that could actually be used to write down appointments (if you wrote really, really small). And from 2005 through 2013, the layout of the calendar panels was quite unconventional, with as many as 14 days per row, and not starting each row with a Sunday (and in some years, not even starting each row on the same day.
I will note that the very first TOS calendars (published by Ballantine) had oblique elliptical day blocks, rather than rectangular ones, and the very first one filled the unused day blocks with additional episode stills, in black-and-white (the month image, of course, was full color).

Goes well with "Baby, It's Cold Outside" playing on the loudspeakers.
Good grief. Most misunderstood song in the season. I don't like the song, but that has to do with being subjected to it over and over while in retail.
Just read the article from your link. Written by a man. The argument there seems to be that it's okay for a man in that generation to be pressuring and ignoring negative cues from women in that generation, simply because sex was more culturally suppressed at that time? I don't think that's a very agreeable position. Pressuring on consent, for anything, is repugnant. Even if it's not about sex. So his argument that sex shouldn't be considered part of the equation in those particular lyrics from that historical context (which is an argument I'm not even sure I buy, tbh) really misses the entire point. It's wrong for a man to pressure a woman for anything after she's said no, and the excuse "she's just being coy" (which he literally says in that article) is completely shady and victim blaming.
