everyone talks about how weird it is that beverly hosed a ghost in that one episode of tng but the real thing that gets me about that episode is that theres a whole planet dedicated to cosplaying as scottish people, and even aliens want in on it

That's what you get in a post scarcity utopia. Cosplay planets.

WilWheaton posted:everyone talks about how weird it is that beverly hosed a ghost in that one episode of tng The script was cribbed from an Anne Rice story. Sex ghosts and cosplay is the same milieu. Beverly's grandmother moving there fits the mold. How come the Crusher ghost sex gets shamed but Zefram Cochrane gets a pass with edging a sentient space cloud for hundreds of years?

the space cloud didn't gently caress his grandmother

Could one consider sex ghost a semi-sentient sex toy?

Nope, the episode where he cures the catatonic one from the Brain Trust and then proceeds to harass her to the point where she's fakes being catatonic again and everyone around him is telling him how hosed up it is happened during the Dominion War.

That was the first one I thought of because it was so cartoonishly skeevalicious that it rose above subtext to become the plot of the episode

My theory is that everything but Julian's social skills towards women were genetically modified. He did have a nice breakup with leeta tho, didn't he?

Hellblazer187 posted:Tuvok. And if Doctor had his mobile emitter by then, grab a second one of those too. Tuvok doesn't seem all that good at what he does, and he doesn't seem to have a very important job either. He can't even catch the spy, the loving chef does! You need another science whiz. 2nd Janeway would probably be the best choice for the other duplicate, but since she's self-destructing her ship, it would be a real dick move for her to bail on it.

I kinda hated the entire Julian arc with the other genetic mutants in general. I way prefer bicuriousity with Garrack and O'Brien.

Something about the latter seasons of DS9 reminds me of Joss Whedon, and it’s not the obvious supernatural stuff. It might have just been the flavor of the time, in terms of genre television writing in the late 90s.

Bashir has a good run from like late season 2 to mid season 6 or so where he's not incredibly creepy but I guess the writers just didn't know what to do with him

What was ever wrong with the other woman other than being insanely horny anyway? Being insanely horny really isn't a crime in the Federation, just look at Riker.

The concept of “Horny Jail” becomes extremely real some time in the next couple hundred years.

i honestly didnt think it was sexual as much as her wanting an intensely dramatic romantic relationship if that makes any sense. she was a messy bitch who lived for drama so to speak.

I think she was meant to be a bit of a narcissist but it didn't really come across that way.
