 Scanlan and Tormé recommended filming the holodeck sequences in black and white , but Rick Berman and Bob Justman disagreed with the idea . " The Big Goodbye " was the first episode based on the holodeck in the Star Trek franchise . The holodeck would appear later in the season in " 11001001 " , as well as a number of other episodes in various series , and would eventually become a regular feature . Because of the differences between the Dixon Hill scenes and those set on the Enterprise , Scanlan treated the diverse settings as if he was filming two unconnected episodes .
