Spocklight At the Movies 40: Judgment at Nuremberg
Monday Dec 15, 2025
Monday Dec 15, 2025
Paul once told us that when they think of William Shatner, the first of his acting roles that comes to mind was that of Captain Harrison Byers from Stanley Kramer's Judgment at Nuremberg from 1961, long before Shatner stepped onboard the Starship that would change his life.
In this episode, after over nine years of podcasting, we finally discover why that was as we examine this star-studded Courtroom drama.

Wednesday Jan 29, 2025
The Spocklight crew are reunited with Chris Carr from ‘Homicide: Life on the Set’ and ‘Secrets and Spies’ to cover Family from Star Trek: The Next Generation.
We discuss how this episode resulted in a surprising ratings low for the series and why that might have been, examine the structure of the episode and how it conforms to the kind of A, B, C plot shape that’s become a lost art in the streaming age, praise the challenging nature of the material and Patrick Stewart's performance, and even find time to tackle the recent Generations 40th Anniversary short film, Unification.
