Romulan ships look like they welded a pair of Klingon Birds of Prey together at the nacelles.

Aren't Romulan Warbirds Klingon in design? There was a trade-off of Bird of Prey and Warbird designs somewhere that made the two races flip ships and keep cloaking. That or some really stupid poo poo I dunno.

The Klingons got the cloak in exchange for the D7 battle cruiser ship design sometime during the TOS era if I have my :spergin: right. Then the Sino-Soviet Klingon-Romulan split happened and they diverged.

Thing is these days intros don't bother me as I never watch poo poo on TV so I can just skip it. Game of Thrones has a great intro but I watch it at the start of the season to see if it's changed and then skip it.

Hey guys check this out I've been able to get an opportunity to speak with someone that used to put star trek vhs tapes in cardboard sleeves in the video tape factory, here's part one of my 14 page interview with some pretty interesting facts about star trek vhs tapes

I remember this was straight out of left field too, because the whole thing felt PG-13 (and would become PG-13) and then BAM! Surprise tits!

The song is so catchy I usually kick the show on a minute before my girlfriend's back at the TV. The fact the intro has gotten far longer with more and more places showing up on the board is kind of awesome. Same reason I've probably watched the Daredevil intro a bunch.

In all seriousness, I think shows could have been much better if serialization was a thing in the past. 99% of the trash in a franchise like Star Trek is due to the fact a reset button is hammered every week and there's not generally time to reach a satisfying conclusion in 40 minutes.

Either way, I don't think its coming. Game of Thrones is an old property by now and we'd be right in the middle of a glut of shows pitched as "Game of Thrones in Space" and "Game of Thrones with Robots" and "Game of Thrones after the Singularity" type crap if there was ever a chance.

That show was so good, until it wasn't.

I kind of wish the last season didn't happen. I'd say "just a finale episode" but the finale was the worst ever. The mutiny two parter was the only thing of value, at all.

Lexx was amazing.
It was on at around 3:00/3:30 in the morning, so that was about the same time we'd come back from drinking at 17/18 and to come in to that while hosed was just right.

I loving hated selling shows on VHS back then.
When DS9 was being aired, in the UK it was either watch it a year after it actually came out, or buy 2 episodes per VHS for £20.
£20 was a lot for us kids, so a friend and I decided to get them between us, each in turn.
Took us about 300-400 quids worth to realize was not loving worth it.
