You can wear high heels in your class B's at your military office job, and you put on a different uniform when you go out to the field. But something something, Gene's vision, Starfleet uniforms are magic all-weather gear with transformer abilities so you wear them anywhere even in a firefight situation where you're trying to hide despite being dressed in bright primary colors.

Theory: The Wadi are really into games because they realize they have basically no agency under the Dominion and so their lives are basically meaningless.

For a second I thought this image might be from some episode of Voyager where Seven is somehow duplicated and then has to make out with herself. But I think if that happened I'd remember it. And have it on tape.

I'm pretty sure Kira in the Bajorian uniform had like moon boots, not heels.

Enterprise's fourth season gets a lot of praise because it wasn't Berman and Braga running it, but so, so much of it is bogged down with continuity porn and almost all of the focus being on Archer and T'Pol. It's not like Trek was new to characters being little more than window dressing (see: Chekov, Pavel; Sulu, Hikaru; Crusher, Beverly; Kim, Harry) but there's a lot of complete dogshit in that season. And some of the ideas he had for the fifth season were unbelievably terrible. Coto's track record as a showrunner post-Enterprise doesn't exactly scream talent, either.

While not everyone got a lot of focus, I feel like everyone on TNG would get their time to shine each season. It may include Subrosa, but Crusher did get an episode every season where she was the focus or at least a major part of the cast in that episode.

The big one I remember was one he worked on with the Reeves-Stevenses, in that Alice Krige would have shown up as a genius science or medical officer on the Enterprise. They encounter the Borg (again, because  ) and Krige's character gets assimilated, but due to her brilliance her intelligence is manifested as the Borg Queen.

Yeah, I feel like when season four came out it was kind of a breath of fresh air because it seemed to have more focus and I admittedly geeked out over seeing familiar stuff like the Gorn and Tholians,. On rewatch these days, though, it's a little too much up Star Trek's rear end in a fankwanky way for my tastes.

Her parents followed a Borg cube through the inverse subspace verteron tube network array or whatever to study them and then got assimilated. Like following some bears into the woods and then the bears assimilate you into their stomach. Also, the Borg technically know about humans because of First Contact.

I just finished season two of ENT, and it already feels like Hoshi, Mayweather, and Reed are furniture. I guess I'm ok with that, since Reed and Mayweather are only fun when they're opposite Trip, and Hoshi is this show's Harry Kim. NOT RACIST, I swear. I just mean they're both whiny and boring. Also, they're both Asian

Timby posted:see: Chekov, Pavel; Sulu, [no first name given]; Crusher, Beverly; Kim, Harry Fixed that for you. Sulu and Uhura might as well have been mononyms like Spock as far as the TOS writers were concerned. Actually knowing their first names is one way to tell a Trekie apart from someone who watches Star Trek. Beachcomber posted:Theory: The Wadi are really into games because they realize they have basically no agency under the Dominion and so their lives are basically meaningless. Yeah, same goes for the guys who were hunting Tosk and maybe the War World dudes and the Tula Berry traders. The Founders seemed to like their solids to be decadent and distracted so their societies couldn't threaten them. The ones that didn't let themselves be bribed into complacency either got "domesticated" or met the same fate as the Quickening aliens and the weird eczema refugees.

Didn't the ENT borg episode end with them sending a subspace signal that would take 200 years to reach the cube? Also, watching the first contact episode for the first time. Riker boning the scientist fangirl was great.
