Orv posted:Having watched the TNG Casual Irish Racism + Clone Kidnapping episode yesterday morning I'm basically convinced, mostly because every Federation colony we see in TNG is about two seconds from A. imploding B. exploding or C. civil war, that colonization in the Federation is exactly that. again, I'm pretty sure both those colonies were established pre-Federation

Certainly the first people to die on Mars will be some rich idiots with the money to get there but not the brains to survive.

CBS Star Trek shows have more showrunners than Voyager has shuttlecraft.

The H&I network likes to run a bunch of Stars Trek from the different series, one after the other. Earlier, "A Piece of the Action" was the nightly entry for ST:TOS. It's one of many 3.6 Roentgen episodes of TOS. That was followed up by ST:TNG's selection, which was... "The Baby." Holy God wow, this episode. I've always known it existed, and for the first for seasons of ST:TNG, I watched every episode and recorded them on VHS. We had the wild feed on C-band, so we always saw the episode that broadcast viewers would have to a week to see, and all of the commercials that weren't for other syndicated Paramount shows were replaced with black screens. We also paused during these times to remove the gaps. (My dad was convinced these tapes would be worth money some day, and we played along for four seasons.) So yeah, I'm sure I saw this episode, and like I said, I hear people talk about it and know it exists... but I had no memory of seeing the actual episode. I guess the question isn't, "How did this series have an episode anything like this?", but instead, "How does every Trek episode not have an episode exactly like this?" Why didn't Jadzea Dax get knocked up from a glowing orb? Why not Captain Janeway? How about T'Pol? Or... I don't know, I haven't seen Discovery because gently caress CBS's bullshit, but I'm sure there's a bunch of women on there. Go nuts! Make 'em all spacepregnant! And then in all of them, just have the pregnancies advance really fast, they all have baby boys that grow and learn really fast, they all emit radiation that almost causes a disaster involving deadly biological agents, and then they all decide to die to end the danger. Hell, they could have used some of that magic they used in that one DS9 episode to give Uhura the "The Baby" treatment. The Baby. Every Trek should have one.

The Child is a strong contender for worst TNG episode, it's tough to think of a worse one. Is Code of Honour worse?

Yes, along with Sub Rosa all three are uniquely bad and the worst of TNG through Voyager Trek, though

In my book there is no worse TNG episode than Code of Honor. I just rewatched Aquiel and, while it's bad, it's nowhere near as bad as Code of Honor.

I could never really watch masks without just checking out mentally, but maybe my taste in Trek is just weird because I liked A Fistful of Datas

I wonder if the future LaForge from VOY "Timeless" is still as loving nerdsperg as he was in TNG when it comes to dating. "Captain, you're needed on the bridge." "Just a sec, I'm... consulting with Dr. Brahms on ways to improve the Challenger's third warp nacelle field geometry here in Holodeck 3. Yeah, let's go with that."

Geordi actually married the holodeck version of Leah Brahms and everyone just goes along with it.

Sub Rosa is terrible but it’s highly entertaining. The grave robbing scene alone means it can never be the worst episode.

It's not terrible; it's just not that great, in my opinion. And, I just noticed that my disdain for "The Baby" was so intense that the part of my brain that stored it in short-term memory changed the episode's title. Somehow, realizing that the actual name of the episode is "The Child" makes it just a little worse! marktheando posted:The Child is a strong contender for worst TNG episode, it's tough to think of a worse one. Is Code of Honour worse? I don't know about that, but my vote goes to "Shades of Gray." I know that's not exactly a hot take or anything, but at least with "Not The Adult," they grabbed a stupid old script that happened to be in a nearby file cabinet and tried to make lemonade out of the dehydrated piss that was the screenplay. "Shades of Gray" is just a pure waste of time. It doesn't even try to be good or bad, it's just "hey, we need one more episode and I only have $19.72 in my pocket. Wait--is it still the 80s? Lets do a clip show!!" And I also liked "A Fistful of Datas." "Sub Rosa" is a little to silly for me to hate. It was nice that Dr. Crusher finally got her grove back, and of course it was an alien radiation ghost that had been with her family ever since before mankind had mastered internal combustion engines. And we got a zombie grandma with glowing eyes and lightning powers! It goes so far that I can't help but be entertained by its badness. Not so with "The Young'n'." tarlibone fucked around with this message at 20:43 on Jun 28, 2019 |
