He was right, although Rick Berman was correct that the network would have thrown a shitfit if they had two male actors kissing in what, ‘93?

Imagine what would've happened if there had been an interracial kiss in Trek in the 1960s, the network execs would've been livid! Trek didn't push the envelope then and it sure as hell won't do it now!

- Rick Berman, probably

Man, gently caress Rick Berman.

It’s absolutely true. According to sources collected by Robert Tralins, a similar event occurred on the west coast in the early 1990s

They keep doing takes of Frakes making out with a man again and again while he keeps making stupid faces whenever they try and get takes of him making out with a woman.



It wasn’t until the episode aired that he realized what was going on.

If you want completely unambiguous intersex horny in your Star Trek look no further than Peter David’s New Frontier books. That was an interesting read for a 13 year old.

There wasn't a network. TNG and DS9 were first-run syndication, i.e. sold directly to the local TV stations.

It's been actual decades since I've read Phil Farrand's pedantic books but I distincly remember him extrapolating that Riker's love interest must have a penis and going on about how he didn't have him down as someone interested in, I believe the phrase was "flat-chested boys".

there was no particular reason why this random con artist had technology capable of bamboozling the enterprise. i don't think she even did, really. she had a secondhand cloaking device, and that alone was somehow enough to run circles around the two biggest tech nerds in the galaxy for most of the episode.

I actually lied, I'm re-reading his takes on each episode as I make my way through the show, out of curiosity, and maybe to reconnect with my teenage self I guess?

let me tell you he has very strong opinions on Who Watches The Watchers and also The Final Frontier

that's a tough trade though. like how do you make sure the buyer doesn't just roll up and take it from you by force.

Are there any good, lengthy interviews with Avery Brooks? I did a YouTube search and unless I'm even worse at the internet than I thought, there's nothing but short, hard to hear Q&A sessions. Whereas you can't swing a dead cat without finding a ton of 90 minute Patrick Stewart interviews.

Avery Brooks never seemed that interested in doing Star Trek stuff outside of doing his job on Star Trek, whether that was conventions, interviews, or what have you. In the few convention videos you can find he looks incredibly uninterested to be there.

I feel bad for the actors who have to go to conventions to make a living.

I feel like at conventions it's pretty easy to tell which actors like being there and which don't, excepting of course that they are actors so they could be just good at acting like they want to be there.

But the ones I like aren't that good of actors
