Neddy Seagoon posted:The best one of these is the Warehouse 13 finale. They wrapped up the main story one episode early, so they could goof off with the last having everyone show their favourite/defining moments as a Warehouse Agent. Warehouse 13 was just an absolute gem of a show.

i think one reason i dug this episode so much is that it kinda feels like "star trek does apollo 13" - in that there's a lot of rapid improvisation to avert (space) disaster what other trek episodes were even like this one? i'm struggling to think, but i'm also on coffee cup number one

Farmer Crack-rear end posted:Nah, I think there's at least one background Vulcan in Farpoint, plus there's Dr. Selar in second season's The Schizoid Man, plus Sarek and his attendant Vulcan assistant in third season's Sarek. Then a few paragraphs down it says 'No Stories in which our technology breaks down in order to create a jeopardy' which I find amusing considering all of the times something like that happens with just the holodeck http://leethomson.myzen.co.uk/Star_Trek/2_The_Next_Generation/Star_Trek_-_The_Next_Generation_Bible.pdf

It's at least three times and the only long-running warp change we get is everyone putting on the brakes because of one specific system having an allergic reaction to warp bubbles.

Erulisse posted:This all boils down to "Theres no spock it aint a trek!", whilst DIS has every other notion of trek, just poo poo. This seems a little extreme! I thought there were some really good episodes in Season 2, and for all its flaws, it does have lots of moments that feel like Star Trek (Saru I think is the best thing about the series). If it wasn't for the trifecta of galactically important missions, being secretly instrumental in too many preexsisting stories* and season 3's solving every ep through a teary speech - I think people would be as ok as they'd ever be with Discovery. It's hard, because so much online chatter about the show is polluted by alt-right weirdo's complaining that the cast is Black and Asian led and whatever else. That said, the one progressive thing they could have handled better was the character coming out as trans. It's framed as a big deal in Disco because obviously it's a big deal in 2021, but it ends up making it feel like it's somehow still a potential issue in the world of the show. If that makes sense. *I honestly really enjoyed the 'Previously on...' bit just being footage from The Cage, though. edit: FlamingLiberal posted:I guess they must have changed some things when the show aired, because I went into the show bible and sure enough it says on page 11 - 'No Stories About Warfare with Klingons or Romulans and No Stories with Vulcans' I've never read this before and it truly is horny AF. I enjoyed the description of Picard as being at peak attractiveness to women, and the insistence that men are sexually irresistable to all women up until their 70's. Sure, Gene.

I know exactly what scene that is, I played it over multiple times to try to understand what anyone was saying but I just couldn't isolate a single line (an issue I have at bars, too.) Nice to know what Shax says, now if only I knew what everyone else said!
