It's also somewhat odd that, like I said earlier, the only main cast member who survived all of this premise reboots and cast shufflings was Von Flores, and while he was a fantastic part of the show all the way through, you wouldn't expect "the aliens' top human lackey" to be a role with that sort of longevity.

Riker hooked up with that Irishman's daughter before killing his clone. You think Starfleet recruiters mention stuff like that to high schoolers?

so im watching an old MST3k, overdrawn at the memory bank, and im thinking to myself, this guy looks like julian from ds9, is this that guys dad or something? as it would turn out it is not the julian bashir actor's dad but instead celebrated star of sound and stage, raul julia.



and now that got me thinking, is julian called julian because he looks like a raul julia alien - or, if you will - a julian?

You should get your Raul Julia facts straight, as I wouldn't want to bungle or bobble the Fingal dopple.

This legendary episode of MST is probably the single piece of media that I've most watched just the first half an hour of before getting utterly bored and unable to complete the rest.

MacFadden doesn't sound too thrilled about it: At an Austin, Texas convention in 2012, Gates McFadden stated she wasn't very fond of this episode. "I was basically in love with a lamp! This woman is a doctor and falls in love with a lamp! How the hell does that work?"

But it seems there were lots of fans of gothic erotic fiction on the crew who were really pumped about it:
"René Echevarria recalled, "I can still reduce Brannon to shudders when I go into his office and say, 'I can travel on the power transfer beam'. But the cast loved it. Every woman on the lot who read it was coming up to Brannon and patting him. Ultimately I think it was worth doing because it was campy fun and the production values were wonderful. The sets look great and everybody threw themselves into it. Gates did a wonderful job. It just got bigger and broader and to the point of grandmother leaping out of the grave. Just having Beverly basically writhing around having an orgasm at 6 o'clock on family TV was great. For that alone it was worth doing. We got away with murder."
