It's weird that outside my work theres like 15 spots reserved for the chick who played Kira. Even if she did drop by is she gonna have that big an entourage?

Pulaski could have made Measure of the Man even more interesting if they made it her big heel realization.

It still boggles my mind that they couldn't be bothered to have consistent uniforms either....rather than get a whole new set of the DS9 version uniforms, they had like half TNG ones and half DS9. So lazy.

But really even with the gradual development of the Ferengi they were never again as goofy as they were in that first episode, all shambling around and hissing like Gollum. We never see those weird energy whips again, do we?

The really annoying thing was how bad everything was, including the cringe-worthy space 9/11.

Go over and post all that on the star trek reddit. I said that Enterprise ended up lame because everything was literally the same and some sperg piped up with "yeah but the hull plating works by a completely different concept to shields."

This one? I loved this look! If Voyager had looked like this, I'd be very happy.

IIRC their clothes are all baggy and long right after they transport but they look normal after that. Like the computer just happened to have child-sized versions of their outfits on file for some reason. Even Guinan's dumb hat.

Jonathan Frakes directed this one, and this is probably why he has a very successful television directing career to this day.

Forgot how angry and shouty Picard was about Data making Lal. Chill out Jean-Luc.

Also lol at Lal's initial form.

Edit- lmao at the huge headed Andorian that is one of her appearance options.

Re: how tired PStew sounds, he's definitely exaggerating it quite a bit for the role. I recently watched an interview with him and a few co-stars and he does certainly sound older and sort of "slower" in a way (like speaking in more measured tones), but not anywhere near that "tired."


Yeah but it's still about 1000 light years thick. Otoh, it's about 100,000 light years across, so with a diameter/height ratio of 100:1, you can definitely say it's "thin" so I dunno.

Worf’s always been an idiot though. This is the same guy who comes from the planet of drunken fratbros but is constantly shocked when they don’t act like strict bushido code samurai.

The Trill in TNG also couldn't use the transporter, so a ton of issues there.

I'm reminded of hanging out with a weird burnout bartender when I was like 18 and when he found out I liked Star Trek, he tried real hard to convince me the US military funded it because it was intended to indoctrinate people to want to join the military.

College Humor died after it pivoted to making videos on Facebook, mainly because Facebook had been completely fraudulent about its viewership numbers. Before they pivoted, their model was geared towards getting viewers into their own site where they had their own ad system that used to sustain them, but posting directly on social media doesn't have the same click-through rate.
