Star Trek: very Short Treks E02: Spock Doesn't Get How "Bloopers" Work
Here's Star Trek: very Short Treks Episode 2: "Holiday Party," starring Bruce Horak, Ethan Peck, Celia Rose Gooding, Doug Jones & more!
Thanks to Star Trek Day, viewers were treated to the first "episode" of Star Trek: very Short Treks, an all-new series of promotional spots done in the style of "Star Trek: The Animated Series" and featuring some fan-favorite characters voiced by cast members from across the Star Trek universe.

And those cries won't get any louder with this week's edition, "Holiday Party." With Bruce Horak (Hemmer), Ethan Peck (Spock), Bonnie Gordon (Communications Officer, Engineer, Crying Ensign), Eric Bauza (Red Shirt, Lieutenant, Ensign), Celia Rose Gooding (Uhura), Gia Sandhu (T'Pring), and Doug Jones (Saru) coming aboard for this one, we get a look at what it would be like if Spock had to put together a proper party to celebrate First Contact Day. Let's just say that he has an interesting definition of "bloopers"…
