I don’t understand how a culture that values soccer so much could possibly have a problem with padding but time makes fools of us all

I think someone said this already but in rewatching 90s star trek it becomes clear we really don't need 26 episodes a season thanks.

give me money to write a klingon movie. I'll get all the nerds and make sure they can speak klingon and punch each other in the face https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V8Q3NiafxPs and the action has to be that brutal or more
