Also, for all of Geordi's protests that his holodeck program was essential for getting the Enterprise out of the trap they were in, the answer was just to floor the ship, then cut the power and coast out.

Then everyone was blown away because Picard used the gravity of a large asteroid to help pull the shop out.

Starfleet accepts only the best and brightest but suddenly everyone forgets that inertia is a thing. They all had panicked looks on their faces when he steered toward the asteroid.

he did but then he fell in love with Troi after having half a glass of romulan ale. By the second hand he was curled in a ball crying about how it wasn't fair that nice guys finish last. Riker said something kind of clever, then walked Geordi to his room while giving him advice on how to not try so hard. The rest of the episode is Geordi pulling up programs of classically dashing, charming men from public domain books, then failing when trying to incorporate them in is day to day life. By the end of the episode he learned its best just to be himself, and not try so hard, just like Riker had originally advised him.

Nobody does that stuff anymore. "It's okay, I've done this in a simulator, back at the academy." doesn't really give confidence.

In The Outrageous Okona, Okona suggests going through an astroid field, because why not? And Wesley is all "We'll just go around, at warp gently caress you." Starfleet officers don't get real world experience all that often. Most of them are just running errands the vast majority of the time. Or going back to the same loving nebula they've been studying for the last 5 years. The Enterprise is different, it's a flag ship, it goes out and finds trouble, either by having a reputation or just being out in the unknown.

Yeah,that wasn't exactly a big reveal because it didn't reveal anything. They also never resolved that plot line or a few Maquis plot lines because they couldn't get the actors to come back. Characters just died off screen.

But no matter what version, Riker's still get the smug. That's that be natural thing Geordi keeps tripping over.

The Dominion killed all the Maquis. Seasons of pointless characters just got exploded without almost any commentary. DS9 is cool like that.

Yep. Riker 2.0, Cal Hudson, Eddington, Ro Laren, all have the same plot line that never has any satisfactory conclusion.


Somebody should also point out to Starfleet that a bunch of their mid level officers keep joining the same terrorist organization.

Voyager: The Accurate Edition is a series of fan-edited Voyager episodes where they've taken shots of the ship floating in space or something and edited in a swarm of shuttles flying around like the vipers during combat scenes in BSG.

They find magic dilithium that lets them go warp 10, which shouldn't be a thing, and it turns paris into a lizard. He then kidnaps janeway, warp 10s again and they have lizard sex. They leave the kids on a random planet because what the gently caress are they going to do with them on a space ship. The end.
