And then Q putting the TNG officers into Sherwood Forest. Yeah, Trek does goofy like a pro when it wants.

 

[fireproof78]

It does. It really brings home the bacon.

 

[NCC-73515]

In a franchise that has given us The White Rabbit and Rumpelstiltskin? Nah.

And the crew going to a universe with magic in the centre of the galaxy and meeting Lucifer himself.

Just as stupid. Nothing beats allamaraine, although maybe blinking holos away should take that trophy now... XD
And it's not a good argument to counter the opinion "stupid" to then show more stupid examples

Oh, I like some of the stupid in Trek. Modern Trek seems to have forgotten how to have the occasional dumb fun.

Sure it is. It's what makes Trek Trek. Enjoyment even in the silliest of things. As a starship captain once put it, "Sometimes you have to bow to the absurd."

 

[oldtrekkie]

...."Sometimes you have to bow to the absurd."

In one of the worst episodes of the series.

And? Is it less Star Trek because of that label?

 

[oldtrekkie]

I think what sinks this episode is the coldbloodedly way Riker murders his and pulaski's clones. Only a psychopath would behave this way. But I'd rather think of it as a writer's brainfart.

 

[Charles Phipps]

I admit it, I ship it.

 

[Redfern]

I admit it, I ship it.

And possibly, "food play" may be involved.

 

[NCC-73515]

I like that he says he's a cutie and wants his hair the way it is

 

[cooleddie74]

The fact tthat Tendi turned into a giant alien scorpion and then was better again by episode's end is ONE OF THE MOST TREK THINGS EVER.

 

[ExtremeSail]

I admit it, I ship it.

She was legit giving him flirty eyes during this scene... I ship it too.

 

[DaveyNY]

It was a pig too far. Too hammy of a scene. You could never take it to market

So, ya think it was one porkroll over the line?

 

[Amaris]

Fun, silly, and seeing our buddies dealing with the ass end of trash duty is always funny. Poor Mariner, who knew what she was in for, it was just a bad day. Tendy remains my favorite, though I'm glad to see Boimler being less brown nosey and more principled. That's what makes him a good person.

Didn't care much for the Pakleds, never do. Still a solid episode.

This one got a 7/10 for me.

"He just took a picture of his own foot".

 

[cooleddie74]

The moment he blinded himself in the reflection from the window. Just wow.

 

[Amaris]

"You fooled Janeway!"

 

[wayoung]

New head canon: what we’re watching are historical documents produced by the federation. They are somewhat realistic but differences in production choices explain why things look contradictory at times.

The Pakled got their hands on the Voyager documentaries, with the obvious results.


this.

That's the plot of Galaxy Quest
