    Whereas in DS9 you had marriages and relationships everywhere. And of course some call it a soap opera because of this but really, that's what life is like.

    Is Janeway the only captain who never officiated a marriage ceremony? (bar Archer, who was unlikely to in ENT). I always wished she'd used that line I think Adama uses in BSG about we should be having babies. (yeah, I know there's supposed to be limited resources etc. Meh.) Plus do unmarried Starfleet personnel have contraceptive implants or similar? Oh, and Harry Kim did alright :)

    In TNG Preemptive Strike, Picard was hitting on Lt. Ro. He said, "You look very fit... Tactical Training seems to agree with you."

    More like, "My groin seems to agree with you. My quarter 1900 hours."

    Maybe that's why Ro left the E-D at the end of the episode. It was an attempt to avoid the BIG P.

    You'd think Janeway would've gotten plenty of chances to officiate a marriage being Voyager was initially supposed to be a generational ship.

    As for Picard hitting on Ro? Don't see it. Any innocent comment can be taken out of context.

    From Lessons:
    RIKER: I'm really not very good.
    PICARD: It doesn't matter... as long as you enjoy it.
    RIKER: Why not?
    PICARD: Excellent. Fourteen hundred hours, then.

    So yeah, Picard and Riker were flirting then arranging a date! OMG!

    They should have had Janeway do that for Paris and Torres. Another thing VOY writers dropped the ball on.

    Didn't she do that it in Course: Oblivion? But *spoiler alert*...

    I once played an utterly bizarre (and NSFW) TNG fangame, where the player walks in on Beverly and Data in the middle of sickbay ("Oh don't worry about the patients, I've drugged them up so much they don't know what they're seeing."), has to avoid being raped by Geordi on the holodeck, can buy and sell drugs in the corridors at night (avoiding the crazed Ewok night shift security guard) and has to fight a psychotically jealous Riker for Troi's "affections" at the end.
    Oh, and Micheal Jackson is hiding in the sickbay closet.

    So, yeah, that Next Gen crew were up to some freaky shit between episodes...

    Not a fan of weddings in science fiction. Usually someone either dies (TOS) or the wedding is interrupted by a terrible drama or it's just awful and boring. Really weddings are generally tedious anyway so why put them on the screen.

    Okay Worf and Jadzia that was okay, but I give most of the credit to the red dress.

    I enjoyed the groomsmen getting to perform the "ritual assassination attempt" on the newlyweds. :pp

    Sorta saw one when Lwaxana showed up nude at her wedding to King of the Prudes.
