The Roddenberry Archive presents an in-depth two-part conversation with award-winning science fiction novelist and screenwriter David Gerrold. During the conversation, Mr. Gerrold tells how, as a college student he broke into the television industry by writing a script for the original Star Trek, the classic episode, "Trouble With Tribbles.". Mr. Gerrold speaks candidly of his sometimes-tumultuous relationship with Star Trek's creator, the late Gene Roddenberry. He delves into his personal experiences in the making of the legendary series and of his pivotal role in the development of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

I love the raw honesty in this interview. Gene Roddenberry was indeed "a complicated individual," and David Gerrold both rightly praised and criticized him in equal measures.

What an absolutely fabulous interview. I’ll say it again from part 1, David is a remarkable person. He’s inspired me almost my entire life. I owe him a level of thanks I couldn’t even begin to communicate properly.

Thanks for this. Aside from the respect for Gerrold and Fontana, the honesty of this posting is marvelous.

Really loved listening to this interview, i love David Gerrold's writing. He wrote a really fun Star Trek-esqe episode of Superboy in 1990 called "Test of Time" where Superboy is frozen in time by a couple of aliens that want to test Earth in preparation for an invasion. Has a Trekish twist at the end. My main complaint is one i have for most Superboy episodes, with a 20ish minute runtime, i just wish it was longer. But still Gerrold's style is all over it. Wish he wrote more for the show.
