This looks into the making of Star Trek II-IV.
This includes the death of Spock in The Wrath of Khan and Nimoy taking the director's chair for III and IV.
Also includes why Kirstie Alley did not return as Saavik after The Wrath of Khan and replaced by Robin Curtis with the reason given by Ike Eisenmann who had played Peter Preston in The Wrath of Khan as Alley was not interviewed for this documentary series.
Frankly I found Eisenmann giving Alley's reason for not returning unsatisfactorily and very disappointing as I would have prefer if Alley herself had given her own account herself.
Fascinating on the said movie and how it led to TNG being made, which had narrator Gates McFadden as a key cast member, and which is a story for another time.
