We've got Tawny Newsome (Ensign Beckett Mariner), Jack Quaid (Ensign Brad Boimler), Eugene Cordero (Ensign Rutherford) and Noël Wells (Ensign Tendi) all talking about their Starfleet crew members, and you can catch new episodes of the show on Thursdays on CBS All Access.

Next, here's a look at what the footage from the climax of the original Ghostbusters looked like before the visual effects were added for the proton streams, Gozer's temple, and the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. While there are flashes of light on set, the proton stream is an effect that isn't part of the scene until post-production.
