I could see Star Trek hipsters becoming preoccupied with things that we used to bemoan, like dust on developed photos, or VHS tracking stripes, and deliberately order burnt food. "Mmm so authentic!"

IShallRiseAgain posted:Also, she got mad at O'Brien for not wanting to be intimate with her in Rascals even though there is obvious reasons he refused. This gets brought up a lot, but I think it's people misremembering what little Keiko says in that scene (probably because it gets brought up a lot). Keiko wants O'Brien to hold her, and that's what weirds him out: quote:[O'Brien quarters]

BioEnchanted posted:I always like when a character breaks their facade, like with the primary Founder villain, the female changling who keeps showing up. She acts all high and mighty and above it all, like she's being SO clinical, but as soon as Garak asks how many of his people survived their attack on her original homeworld she just loses it on him and shows just how passionate she really is. "How many survived? They're all dead. YOU are dead. CARDASSIA IS DEAD! Does that answer your question?" I love how she's so over this solid's bullshit and Garak is like

The way I remember it, after Scorpion, Janeway's like "well, these Borg enhancements to the ship are good, leave them in!" and then the next episode, B'Ellana goes "actually we have to rip it out" as if she's channelling Rick Berman.

I always enjoy how pointless Picard killing his doppelganger is. Could've stunned him, disabled the shuttle, transported him, restrained him... but nah, Jean-luc was working through a few things.

DaveWoo posted:The Bynars were a decent concept, and I liked the ship evacuation scenes, but the overall plot of the episode was awfully thin. And the dialogue between Riker and Minuet was... not terribly convincing. It's too bad the order of episodes got changed around, because I think the reason why Picard gets so excited about the first time he plays Dixon Hill was supposed to be because the Bynars made the Holodeck way better.

I've only watched 95% of TOS in adulthood, but I love it. The "heh, women" and "women  " comes at you out of left field sometimes, and there's a lot of plot recycling between episodes, and I often don't care for the "let's raid the studio lot's wardrobe to save a buck this week" episodes, but most of it's so... goddamn... fun.

DaveWoo posted:Speaking of Troi, I'm watching the episode where Troi loses her empathic ability right now, and I feel like this episode was written by someone who doesn't like Troi very much. I think the biggest failure of that episode is you never get an idea of what losing her special power is like, other than her talk with Riker where she describes it as if people aren't really there anymore, which sounds scary. You just have everyone going "oh well, now you're like the rest of us" and her being a big bitch about it. I think they should've put in some POV shots for Troi where people sound like weirdly muted, or maybe have her mom come in and it being really upsetting that they can't telepathically talk anymore. The idea of the ep was that it was like sudden blindness or deafness, but that doesn't work if it's an empathic ability nobody in real life has, other than people on social media

The whole bit where they are on the fake Yamato and it's just hosed up and super creepy in a way TNG usually wasn't, plus I love Worf losing his poo poo at it and trying to fight with the doors Yeah, the spooky TNG episodes are some of my favorites. Like Remember Me, or the one where everyone gets knocked out and it turns out they've lost two days, and Data ain't talking. They nearly all have disappointing conclusions, but the vibes are definitely excellent.

MuddyFunster posted:Ensign Chococidal McManiac is back too, weirdly? Is she a low key constant recurring character like O'Brien or more a Janice Rand "just in this handful of episodes, gone and forgotten soon after"? I believe the plan was to have her and Geordi to become an item. Not great to have him date a subordinate, but I really liked her and was sad not to see more of her. The actress, Lycia Naff, had to get a short haircut for a different movie or show, and asked someone higher up at Star Trek if that was okay, and got a greenlight. When she'd had the cut, they were suddenly all "what did you dooooo" and cut her from the show.
