I also like how Neelix was supposed to be the cook but 90% of the time in the later seasons someone walks up to him and says what they want, and he walks over to the replicator and replicates it for them.

The Maquis were specifically created for Voyager and yet DS9 did way more with the concept than the Voyager crew ever did.

No they weren't, The Maquis have existed since about season 5 of TNG. Ro Laren ran off to join them.

Nah, they were conceived for the show Voyager, and they were added into the other shows before Voyager started so that they were a known entity when it was time to debut the show.

Edit, from Memory Alpha:

"In order to avoid having some burdensome backstory and exposition in Voyager's pilot, we decided we could plant the idea of the Maquis in the shows that were already on the air," related Jeri Taylor. (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion, p. 134)

Yep. Just like the Bajorans were introduced in TNG to ease viewers into DS9. DS9 actually cares about continuity though, unlike Voyager.

I wrote an unpublished essay after I watched Into Darkness and I justified the recent Trek movies as modern action films and I can appreciate them as such. The TV series stories were mostly ethical dramas, thrillers, horror, or comedies which I appreciate too but I can see why expectations are way off. They really didn't have the budget to make good action TV most of the time and there isn't enough of an audience to make a movie about Quark dressed as a woman.

well average is 3-4 in although while aroused it can be up to 7 (blood flow pushes cervix & uterus up to make more room)and Janeway looks like she arouses easily so yeah id say 7 ibches is def a safe bet

I call BS on this story because the volume of Sabotage was so loud that there'd be no way for anyone to hear you. It would have also required there to be an audience in the theater watching Beyond.

I hate that I remember this but new earth was a planet where Janeway and Acoochimoya set up house after they contracted space aids and couldn't be around the rest of the crew so voyager dumped them on a planet and resumed course to the alpha quadrabt. I think it's implied that they start loving? or at least obv fall in love basically.

Then neelix discovered that Leola roots when applied rectally can cure space aids so voyager turns around to get them from new earth and stick roots in their butts. Janeway and chakotay return to their usual routine but they'll never forget that time they lived and loved together in a tiny space trailer while waiting for space aids death.

Apparently this enterprising author has written a story where chakotay secretly recreates new earth in the holodeck so he can continue loving space aids Janeway as a hologram and she finds out and disguises herself with bits of light to look like a hologram and chakotay fills her belly with his people's seed. I'd read it, honestly.

Also Chakotay makes a secret bathtub and Janeway has a sensual bubblebath and the monkey from outbreak is there.

Something similar happened to me once, too, with a girl who was a huge Trek fan. She wanted a japanese animated version of just the origin of Spock that she was certain would become a genre unto itself. She said it would be regarded as 'animoy'.

But she found out I liked Babylon 5 and called me a loser.

In the last few episodes there is a time travel episode where Year 1 Janeway asks Year 7 Chakotay if they ever gently caress and he's like "Nah, we don't cross that line"


Also I decided to start a rewatch of Enterprise because I have literally nothing better to do. Holy poo poo that decontamination gel scene. I never actually watched Enterprise and I just thought it was one of those jokes because of whats her face's nipples or something but it's like slow zooms on two nearly naked people rubbing each other for like 5 minutes.

Whats her face with the nipples was the biggest trek fan on the show. She would fight with the producers over how a vulcan like Spock would act. She also wanted to do a crazy vulcan love story and what she got was stuck in a box with Flox.

The Talaxians died because their species couldn't move beyond the 90s. The Haakonians were just finishing what nature started.


I always got the impression Neelix was supposed to be this con artist the crew had to put up with but at one point he became Jar Jar Neelix instead. Also it's interesting that his feet are like that because it makes him look like a hobbit. He just wants to eat and smoke and read all day and doesn't want to put up with Janeway.

I want a new TV show where the Cardassians and Haakonians form an Alpha-Delta alliance against all the lovely "respect my culture!" galactic races and the rest of the powers turn a blind eye because to be honest the incessant whining and begging and praying and morale-officering that comes out of those worlds is the most exhausting and burdensome part of 24th century space travel.

Poor Porthos. He was already over 100 years old. One day a captain in that area is going to notice a molecular anomaly and transport him to a new home.

It's only fitting Scotty spends 50+ years stuck inside a transporter.
