...the war. They were both sort of okay, and still not okay. Often caricatured, albeit less blatantly than during wartime. Treated as the butt of jokes, derided for the supposedly low quality of their exports. Many Americans wouldn't buy Japanese products Because. All of that was acceptable...

Delayed from 50th Anniversaryland, It's Saturday Night! NBC's Saturday Night Season 1, episode 5 Originally aired November 15, 1975 Host: Robert Klein Guests: ABBA; Loudon Wainwright III The opening skit has Chevy hosting a beauty pageant. The winner, Laraine, strips off her gown in protest...

...it. That's interesting. Where was BJ during all this? I'd like to see his take religion. Flagg was right! :rommie: So... no water-into-wine jokes? :rommie: That's cool. I don't think I knew about their relationship. Massive failure of Duke's detective instincts. You go, Aunt Clara...

I guess someone forgot to tell Spock and Nero this in the 2009 movie.

Since subspace as Star Trek uses it is completely fictional, it can do whatever the writer decides it can do.

Unlike what Discovery's finale would have you believe, subspace fields, like the type that constantly surround Federation ships, are proven to make a joke of the event horizon of black holes.

..."Dregs and Vestiges" series, which will probably be in the next post. Further on, the Bees are actually starting to grow on me as an absurd in-joke. Refreshing my memory with a quick look-up, the story is that the first Bee sketch was very poorly received, and NBC immediately told Lorne...

They said they'd send replacements and other gifts to those who received faulty figures. I think the "1000 figures" comment was more of a joking aspiration - i doubt they'll come anywhere close - it would also take them over 50 years at the current release rate, lol...

All the mutants and whatnot running around I'm not sure they'd even realize it was an alien.

It's a big universe. There could be plenty of Starfleet heroes we don't see in addition to the ones we do. I mean, even in the 22nd-24th centuries, there should be many distinguished Starfleet figures who never appeared on TV or movies. But that just pulls the audience out of the story by...

...it spoils it for the writers who will come after. And as this is not just a background display graphic, filled with production crew name in-jokes and gibberish, meant to provide realism but be ignored for what it says, but rather the focal point of a significant scene - we're to notice it...

Yea, I did jokingly mention earlier that the characters have been racking up a BODY COUNT against the US military. (besides the demi-gorgon's slaughtering a bunch) They are going to be reporting a heckuva lot of 'training accidents' for 1987 troop deaths.

Please tell me that’s a joke. Please.🙏

If the tech needs to be relatable they could have had Discovery go to the 25th century. Instead they went 1000 years in the future where their spore drive far surpassed what starfleet had come up with in 1000 years. Why not just give us updated spore drives that just transport the ships instead...

...are just racist bastards. In Spock's case it's not even a VISIBLE or PRACTICAL physical difference. They just KNOW that he's "impure". Kirk jokes about Spock having "bad blood". These monsters are serious. It was never implied that Spock was physically weaker than his Vulcan contemporaries...

...a room full of people putting hands on things to make the stories happen. That's why "Trek should always go forward and not back" is such a joke. Change the names of the aliens and allies and enemies - which side are Klingons on, this week? - and just keep doing the same things. Star Trek...

Yes, it's a joke to show people what other users are seeing. Highlighted by absurd captions that had no relation to the images to highlight the comic effect.

+1 for me, these are fun reads! It's a little sledgehammery, but it feels like a story TOS wouldn't be able to do. The cast are strong and even Wesley isn't a stick figure saving the ship. A solid, if not narrow and basic outing since kidnapping 7 children isn't going to resolve their...

Great point! That would have been far better, to not explore Yar's desires but to explore Yareena instead (after changing her name from a rough-draft name penciled in that was forgotten about since she was the opponent of Yar) Easily a 1/5, it's such a mess despite the potential (esp. everyone...

Still, it's the impression I get. Now this statement from Berman actually show's arrogance and also narrow-minded thinking. What should have been important for him was th tell good stories. The ranks of the main characters are less important and thew show wouldn't have suffered if Kim had been...
