Well, there are cameras on a starship filming...see the Kirk/Sarek scene in Star Trek III.

In other words when the plot calls for it.

While what was said by each person may not 100% accurate, we can assume the computer is able to make a pretty good "guess".
My beef with the holodeck thing is that at one point Riker as chef asks T'Pol personal questions about her and Trip's relationship. Obviously, Riker was asking whatever questions he wanted and holodeck T'Pol answered them according to the way the computer believed she would.

A few scenes later, when Riker is simply an onlooker of historical holodeck footage in the shuttlecraft, T'Pol--in that footage--refers back to the conversation she just had with Riker! Impossible!

That wasn't the most farcical aspect of it. I don't know how anyone, particularly Riker, has T'Pol alone in the holodeck and doesn't, you know.

Actually, I think there are. At least, a lot of what goes on is recorded.

Did anyone else catch Riker's line towards the end when he said, "All good things..."? I thought that was a nice reference to the final episode(s) of a better series...

I thought this was in the Trip/Malcolm conversation? Can't remember which one of them said it...I think it was Malcolm.

Well I didn't even watch this until last night.. I thought the finale really crapped in the face of the show and fans. To make the series finale part of a minor subplot of a minor episode of another series.. Wow.

I actually LIKED Riker and Troi being there because it felt like a TNG episode and that's my all-time favorite TV series. Made me really miss TNG and wish that show had gone on longer. I watched the show as a kid and teen so I guess it's a sentimental favorite. Was there really the idea of having a Titan series with Riker? Dang, wish they'd gone ahead with that. I'd like to see the next series be in the TNG era with at least a couple of the same characters. Of course has to be done by someone with talent and not B&B obviously. Do an arc show instead of almost purely episodic. Has to be hard to come up with new ideas when it comes to individual episode stories at this point.
