the season three episode that was an analogy for holocaust denial was pretty good. Roxann Dawson as Banana Torres knocked that one out of the park.

criscodisco posted:Eye of the Needle is a great episode, and holds its own with some of the best of Trek. Eye of the Needle has a killer gut punch twist and also a lovely scene where Janeway negotiates and subtly manipulates a Romulan over the comm in her nightie.

Tighclops posted:Why would anybody list Year of Hell and specify part one only Hmm I don't think much happens in the second part. Chakotay becomes close to Annorax and slightly obsessed with Time Tom starts an insurrection onboard the Krenim ship Janeway takes risks onboard a half destroyed Voyager and the Doctor tries to relieve her for mental incompetence Janeway crashes Voyager into Annorax's ship and reboots the timeline I'm not saying you shouldn't watch it particularly if you've gone to the bother of viewing Part 1, but I wouldent say it's an ecspecially great episode. It has that problem that a lot of Star Trek two parters have, where part 1 is about building the tension and creating obstacles an then part 2 is about solving everything, which is far less enjoyable. Particularly with Voyager, which seems to resolve two parters rather perfunctorily ie. Equinox/Dark Frontier/Workforce/Basics

Season But its pretty subjective. There's a couple of old school Trek episodes that wouldent have looked out of place on TOS (Prototype) which I genuinely really like but I could see why someone else would find it average

The robot outfits are awful, even for 1996. But I like the idea of a robot war and Voyager is stuck in the middle bleating "eh sorry guys we just want our half Klingon chief engineer back please" There was a couple of good Torres episodes in season 2; Prototype and Dreadnaught where it looked like the writers were directing her characterisation as that of a smart capable engineer/scientist with a natural intellectual curiosity that now she was in the Delta Quadrant away from the problems of home, she would be free to explore. But then they seemed to forget all that and she became known primarily as Tom Paris's girlfriend and Seven of Nine got all her technobabble and cosy scenes with Janeway discussing SCIENCE

Chomp8645 posted:Pretty ironic and also terrible that the character who started as the "disagreeable but capable and independent Engineer" eventually got written away into becoming the "occasionally feisty but agreeable and supportive Girlfriend". I agree! She wasn't the only character to be discarded after Seven of Nine but I think they really wasted a potentially flawed and interesting character by relegating her solely to engineering and sitcom scenes with Tom. Plus in "Vis a Vis" and "Alice", Paris is replaced by a bodyswitcher and possessed by a female shuttlecraft respectively and his behavior then isn't that far from how we see he normally treats Torres. The old ball and chain haha am I right? Leave me alone woman so I can watch my cartoons on my hipster TV and then I'll take you on a date to the holodeck to see the car I'm fixing up

Tricky D posted:Your list of good Voyager episodes is messed up because it isn't just Bride of Chaotica listed 12 times. Yeaah that wasn't an oversight. I do like parts of that one, like when Janeway cosplays as Queen Arachnia and the devil robot but I just don't rewatch it that much, I'm not sure why. For me, it just slightly misses the mark

Hillary Clintons Thong posted:i honestly gave voyager a go a couple of years back, before I even watched DS9 I think. I made it until Janeway starting hanging out with DaVinci or someone like that. Said gently caress it. TNG & VOY suffer from wayyyy too much holodeck poo poo. DS9 had some but not enough that I can even remember any specific ones. List of crappy voyager holoprogrammes 1. Janeway's camp gothic melodrama 2. World War 2 French town 3. Neelix's generic Hawaiian resort which probably is a bit racist in 2016 4.Captain Proton 5. gently caress off Da Vinci 6. Tom's French bar with 1x pool table 7. Fair Haven

Hillary Clintons Thong posted:what if Geordi asked the holodeck to create a simulation of a woman who would love him? what would the result be? Core breach due to cpu cascade failure poo poo? She would be perfect; beautiful and intelligent, graceful and kind. But then Riker becomes curious about who Geordi is spending all his holodeck time with...he sleeps with Geordi's needy holographic mess...and after altering her consent settings and sleeping with her, Riker maliciously makes changes to the programme so that she now smells of beer farts and growls "make it so" in Picard's dulcet baritone every she reaches completion. The senior staff all have chuckle in the conference lounge later on and Counselor Troi describes Geordi's emotional distress in incredible detail

cheerfullydrab posted:Which two-parter Next Gen, Voyager, or DS9 episodes would you consider to be better than any of the TNG movies? At the absolute least I'd say Best of Both Worlds and Emissary. The Maquis pt 1 and 2 (DS9) Past Tense pt 1 and 2 (DS9) Improbable Cause and Die is Cast (DS9) In Purgatorys Shadow and By Infernos Light (DS9) Scorpion pt 1 and 2 (Voy) I've got such a blind spot for Futures End (Voy) as well because it's just so cheesy and fun!

TMP has the crew assemble in a big cargo bay a third of the way through the movie so they can watch clips of the first third of the movie on a big screen ugh. I can't be bothered with it, I liked the bit with the Spock replacement getting turned inside out but all the slooooow majestic shots of the Enterprise and the intense chemistry between the bald wifie and the man leaves me cold. Plus he's a paedophile in 2016

I like four Beverley C episodes Remember Me is a classic and you should take a drink anytime a character says "Quaice" Sub Rosa is about hilarious as Spocks Brain and managed to fit in a middle aged woman orgasming multiple times in one episode and this shitfest took place on a Scottish themed cosplay colony stuck in the 1800s Ethics is a bitchfest between Bev and this weeks visiting doctor. They fight over Worf's injured spine until he wants to kill himself. Suspicions lets our Bev host a scientific conference or something but of course it all ends in disaster and two people die. Thankfully plucky Crusher solves the mystery by flying a shuttle into a sun The ones where she has sex with a Trill and almost has sex with Picard aren't really very good though because they were poorly written

Fat Shat Sings posted:This Week on Voyager Ha I think everyone noticed PorkyKes but they were all just to Starfleet to say anything...cowards. But yeah I don't think she should have blown up Voyager and killed Torres. It's a pretty crap show but it's not as bad as the one with Hercules or Space Final Conflict. Little did Kes know that this would all lead down the road to 2016 where she breaks the prime directive and exposes her lady garden to a bunch of kids because she's a bit drunk and hates her neighbours. Maybe it would have been better if Jennifer Lien had only lived nine years or wasn't a weirdo

I liked when Voyager went back to 1996 and Janeway was like "Well Tom we will be relying on your encyclopedic knowledge of the 20th century more than usual to get us through this pickle!" Then when they beam down and start interacting with real people and not historical 20th century holograms they realise Paris knows gently caress all "Groovy!" "Secret agents blah KGB blah" "I studied at Starfleet Academy...doh...I mean east coast school"

Everyone hates Cardassian cuisine, even Cardassians. Technology was second rate, scientists were under the control of the military and supervised by the Obsidian Order so their could never hope to match the Federation's technical expertise. Their justice system was a farce. Dr Bashir finds Cardassian literary classics "boring". Their empire is smaller than the Federation, Romulan and Klingon Empires respectively. They couldn't drive the Klingons or maquis out of their territory until they joined the Dominion and got the Jem Hadar to help them. Everybody hates them because they were mean to the Bajorans for fifty years Pretty cool architecture though Best Star Trek race

Hillary Clintons Thong posted:you know there a few things that I don't like it, mainly the music editing, but Continuum is not a terrible show about time traveling. Ooh I liked Continuum too. It could have been a truly great show if it just had a bit more flair and the writing had been a bit sharper. There were some episodes that felt oddly dated, cases of the week (a computer game making people kill themselves) and wouldn't have looked out of place on early X-Files. I liked all the stuff with the series arc and the characters were intriguing (except Kiera's dull Chakotay lite partner)

Mid 90s scifi was plentiful and incomprehensible most of the time, just ask Sliders. TNG had a lot to do with the glut of 90s TV scifi: SG1/ Sea Quest/earth final conflict/dark skies/Earth Above and Beyond etc. Some of them I enjoyed but even then they looked a bit cheap n cheerful and completely dated when you watch them back now.

Next Star Trek movie villain should be 1991 Dr Crusher circa Season 5. In the episode "The Host" she rejects her trill lover just because he swaps into the body of pretty young woman after a assassination attempt. In 2016, the SJW's name Beverley a BIGOT and she is Twitter harassed until she has a nervous breakdown but that's not enough! A different SJW comes into sickbay every hour and tries to lick the white cisgender tears from her face until she kills herself and the Federation celebrates the death of the greatest threat to freedom, tolerance and diversity that the Alpha Quadrant has ever seen. Kudos to you all
