The best part of Marco Polo is the way it ended means that the Mongol Empire fell was because Prester John was real and destroyed them with his divine powers.

Cannibal Llama sounds like it could be a zany intentional throwback to mid OOs Penguin of Doom tier usernames but it also sounds like it could be the name of the lamest possible Metal Gear Solid boss so please don't make fun of it.
Actually the best part of that show was when those soldiers attacked that naked lady but then she kills them all with her superior kung fu skills.

I'm irritated that I live in a timeline where the original TNG cast is reuniting for a new season of Trek and, because of how bad Picard is, I do not give a poo poo.

struggling to figure out a non fanservicy reason they could possibly justify this

like cameos from other trek have always been a thing but its a core aspect of the setting that everyone has their own lives and motivations and once theyre not on the same ship anymore its literally impossible for them to pursue their own goals while also being able to have adventures at a moments notice this is why in the tng finale everyone is crabby as poo poo at picard for dragging them out to the middle of nowhere for no apparent reason

It's weird that the pseudo-TNG sequel show wasn't Dorn's idea about Worf on his own, commanding a mostly Klingon ship. That seemed like a cool premise and seemed to have more reason for existing.

I posted this in the TVIV thread, but despite watching and more or less liking the new Star Treks (I have low standards for spaceship), the biggest issue with Discovery and Picard is they have no concise logline. Lower Decks and Prodigy work because they have a central point that drives the story.

They go to a world based on the Shogunate and another based on the British Raj, and together they comprise of maybe seventy minutes of screentime. Neither turns up again beyond Season Two.

His character was the most bizarre part of that show. Just this unnecessary remnant of the lovely wacky first few episodes that stuck around (and stuck out like a sore thumb) until the conclusion for some reason. Can't even remember how his arc ended.
