zoux posted:Ezri's fine I guess but man I would've loved a s7 with Jadzia. The way she went out, both irl and on the show, makes it so much worse too. It sucks. Especially because they had the perfect opportunity for her to exit the show in a really dramatic way in the same season. The episode where Worf lets the Cardassian die for her. Her dying then would've hit way harder. I also hate the Dukat Satan arc so her getting killed by him added extra injury to the insult. (Dukat should've left the show with Waltz)

finished up with S3 of voyager- has a few good episodes in "real life"/"the chute"/"basics pt2"/"worst case scenario" but particularly "remember"- that one felt dark enough to have been a ds9 script as for the rest I thought there was a notable decline- it felt pretty cheap at some points too, can't remember specific episodes but they were just kinda narrating the majority of the ship combat rather than show it more than once- and there were some really quite dull episodes like the time travel two parter, "before and after" and the q episode- nothing really offensively bad, just... dull, directionless tng rejects or rewrites they also seemed to change kes into a proto seven of nine about halfway through the season, total outfit/hair change and apparently somewhere she dumps neelix but it gets like half a sentence of attention, unless I dozed off during an episode happened at least twice

davidspackage posted:Often Bong Soong I mean even in the episode where it's brought up Lore is dunking on the bad rhyme scheme. But those are often the ones that stick. Ol' Doc Soong gets worked up when someone calls him 'Often-Wrong' and that eggs them on and then it's a month later and the whole colony's heard it.

DesperateDan posted:they also seemed to change kes into a proto seven of nine about halfway through the season, total outfit/hair change Jennifer Lien sometimes had rough reactions to the ear makeup, so they switched to her natural hair to cover her ears so she wouldn't have to wear it as often. The outfit change was supposed to make her look older as well. They felt they had leaned too hard on "she's just two or three years old!" for the first couple of seasons and wanted to emphasize "and by the way, that makes her an adult now." DesperateDan posted:and apparently somewhere she dumps neelix but it gets like half a sentence of attention, unless I dozed off during an episode happened at least twice The actual breakup happens while in "Warlord," i.e. the one where Kes is possessed, which makes it tricky to realize that, yes, it's real. IIRC, there was only going to be a scene in the Neelix terrorist episode where they discuss having broken up, and even that didn't make it as far as being filmed; the producers just didn't care.

So last night's SNW just basically solved all the dated timeline issues (the"wait, I thought LA in 1996 was a nuclear hellscape, yet sarah silverman seems to be thriving" stuff) with a single line of dialogue.

I'd recommend watching the show because this is a mega huge spoiler but as spoken by a Romulan temporal agent: "Like so many people, I've tried to influence these events. Delay them or to stop them. I mean, whole temporal wars have been fought over them. And it's almost as if time itself is pushing back and events reinsert themselves and this whole thing was supposed to happen in 1992!" 1992 - 1996 being the period in which Khan was supposed to have been one of the great rulers of the world, which obviously didn't happen. The implication now is that any discrepancies in fictional histories set by once and future ST series can be explained by temporal agent shenanigans

They always just floated around as a thing that happened at some point, and it was big, but hard to say any details for sure. If the past of the Federation is stuck in constant flux due to temporal meddling, it solves that problem, and it also solves the issues of later shows being unable (and usually unwilling) to capture the vibe of the earlier shows despite doing a weird prequel circlejerk. The "original" timeline has long been overwritten, you can never go back.

ashpanash posted:Ok, well, this guy needed 14 minutes and the show did it in 30 seconds in the middle of a pretty drat good episode without it feeling like grinding the story to a halt to deliver exposition. I was being a bit glib, since the line only works in the context of the efforts of the episode. But it wasn't done through tedious exposition that involves being transported to a hallway of the Enterprise J so you don't really notice. Marvel Comics has a similar problem, because certain characters are tied to historical events that are getting farther and farther from the modern marvel timeline. They have kind of a floating timeline where Now and The Last Five to Ten years definitely happened but stuff gets fuzzier prior to that. Frank Castle will just be a veteran of whatever the most recent asymetrical war the US just fought. It's trickier for other characters, not like you can just make Magneto a victim of the Khmer Rouge or the Rwandan Genocide, his past is inseparable from the Shoah.
