I enjoyed the film. As it happens, I went to see it with Harlan, and I was
thinking, "Isn't this odd, for the person who wrote the most famous Star Trek
episode, and the guy behind B5, to be watching Galaxy Quest together."

No, I was directly involved with the casting of just about everybody on the
show. But when you work with someone day in and day out, you naturally develop
more of a familiarity than with guest stars, even when they do make several
appearances, as with Robin.
