  Subj: Marina Sirtis
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was at a convention today, and Marina mentioned that nonthing was finalized
about the supposid next two seasons of the Next Generation.  She also mentioned
that they just got done (this past week), with the fourth episode of the next
season.  She said to look for a new hair style starting after episode 4.
 
     The name of the episode to watch for is Man of the People.  She said it
could possibly turn out to be her favorite episode yet.  She gets taken over by
yet another life form, and the episode is mostly about Troi.
 
     Also the only person for sure that will be a regular on Deep Space nine,
is O'brien.  The others would appear in guset spots throught the season.  
 
     Marina mentioned that she would love to see the show continue.  But
Paramount would like to start movies.  The only problem with continuing the
series, is that some actors (no names mentioned) have a problem with that.

  Subj: Trekfest Orlando
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I attended Trekfest Orlando yesterday and heard some info about various
projects.
 
Scotty will be featured in the 4th episode of season 6.  He will not be wearing
any "old age" make up.
 
Paramount is definately interested in a 7th season of TNG, but no one has
signed yet.
 
Filming on DS9 is supposed to start in about 1 1/2 weeks.  All of the sets are
done (covering 4 soundstages).  The problem is that other than Colm Meany no
one has been cast yet.

  Subj: The Ensign RO mystery
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Michele Forbes was one of the guests at Trekfest Orlando.  She cleared up the
mystery of why Ro isn't in every episode.  Ms. Forbes schedule is pretty busy
right and she simply was not available for some episodes.  This will not change
unfortunately.  She stated that she has not been in any of the season 6
episodes yet.

        About James Doohan in TNG...

        I recently attended the Toronto Trek Convention (at the end of July),
and he was a guest there.  He said that he IS appearing in the Next Generation,
and that he IS playing Montgomery Scott, and finally.....He will NOT be "aged"
like Dr. Mccoy was in the "Encounter at Farpoint" episode!  

        Mr. Doohan said that filming would begin August 6th, and that he had no
idea what the script was about.  He was sure that he was playing Montgomery
Scott, and he even knew what his wardrobe would be (the black vest & white
shirt you see him wearing in the movies).  

        He is either going to have to be a holodeck creation, or the effect of
some type of time warp thing, due to the fact that he will be the same age as
in Star Trek 6...this should be interesting...
