    That’s very interesting, I didn’t know that.

    But it still only brings us up to 750 hours even if all 900 episodes of Trek were 50 minutes, from TOS through the TNG era and the three animated shows.

      Is the “900 episodes” figure counting two-parters as one episode or two?

        Great question. One would hope it counts them as 2, but who knows.

        There aren’t that many two-parters anyway, are there? I can’t imagine it would make up the difference.

          My thought was that the extra few minutes of TOS episodes, the added time of two-parters counting as one, and maybe another factor or two we haven’t thought of yet would add up to account for it.
