Just reading on Wikipedia what US singer Tony Bennett got up to over his last 20 years or so (Bennett died in 2003). Guy was a stone cold legend. I'm not really into crooning as a genre. But years of listening to Dick Cheese and electroswing has left me an appreciation of big band music, and its suave, finger-snapping crooners.

@SynAck I def mostly agree with that, especially the first time I watched it - I bailed after a few eps thinking “this (i.e. Seth) doesn’t know if it wants to be earnest #StarTrek homage or #FamilyGuy in Space”… but I went back to it about a year later & gave it another try
all those issues are still there, but in the end I really enjoyed having something new & Trek-ish to watch that leaned into the funny a little, but also managed the occasional deft turn into pathos (I find that some of the best comedians are very adept at funny… funny… funny… oh crap, they just ripped my heart out!! 😭)
ultimately, I made my peace with it as Seth MacFarlane’s very naked, heart-on-his-sleeve love letter to Star Trek (and #crooners, and #MovieMusicals / #MusicalTheatre…)
maybe the fact that we’ve had #LowerDecks has shifted the Overton window for Trek being more overtly funny? (although of course humour has always been in the mix, right from the #TOS days)
anyway, for me it goes solidly into the Star Trek fan pantheon (“#fantheon”? 🤔) on whose throne firmly sits #GalaxyQuest 💁♀️ I def won’t be sad if it gets a fourth season (or more)

Moon River
This version by Andy Williams, but also from Breakfast at Tiffany's, so will be in Films and TV section.
Still don't have my camera back from repair, so had to use my laptop camera. Please excuse poor quality video and half my face, sound isn't brilliant either. I'll probably re-record it when I get my camera back.

Sammy Davis, Jr.'s finest hour? Certainly in the ballpark.
