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...

...I loved Picard's revenge of leaving the creature behind. Yet the episode doesn't really work. How does Armus fit Riker inside him (insert dirty joke here)? The "ditch" is just for production reasons, he's not down there. Is he folded like my laundry? He lets people go too easily when he has...

...Kirk talking about the people they had lost. Saavik and David's "dumb bastard" exchange! (And it's a callback to Kirk's line "that was a little joke".) I'm sure there are more. I heard someone say that they added the line "did you change your hairstyle?" to cover for the fact that Alley...

Him saying that over and over again was an in-joke on how the NCR Troopers' were programmed to mostly say that line over and over again

...years younger and somehow try to pass as Davy Jones to lure in new viewers, it's just as amazing they'd didn't use the intended as the butt of jokes along with everything else - especially in season 2. And he was in many ways, the least of which being that it's a joke that people would watch...

...over a dozen more who felt like main cast members, especially late in the series. It had 24 questions, allowing for the one I asked twice as a joke. Now it's up to 35. So when I post the reboot version, it will be even more searing. Now I want to read that story again. Which was a good...

That, and having tributes to the Gerry Anderson shows in one episode, and a tribute to The Prisoner in another.

If you mean Trek guests, that doesn't seem to apply to the season 5 finale, "The Merchant," but the preceding episode, "The Party," features Antoinette Bower, Alfred Ryder, and Arthur Batanides as well as Leonard Nimoy.

I don't have my Mission: Impossible book handy, but I know that the final episode of the fifth season had three guest stars who had all appeared together in a previous series, and, according to the female co-star, she said it felt like "old home week" as the three of them would spend their down...

...the screenplay for Hitchcock's "The Birds." McBain wrote the hard-boiled detective novels. (Born: Salvatore Lombino.) I confess that, as a joke, I once sold a story to AMAZING as "Bryan Gregory Stephenson" just so that, briefly, I could be the biggest name in SFF. Beating Jessica...

Even though it's such an obvious joke, I still had a good laugh over the alien being found in the freezer, and everyone was all "holy shit, a working ice box!"

In many circumstances, I don't either. I think that Kes being rarely mentioned in later seasons was a concession to new viewers who hadn't seen the character. And, I think that "Fury" was a display of incompetence rather than ill intent. A bit of the "Riker as Q" effect: giving the people what...

Again, writers have a different view of characters than fans. Writers are not necessarily attached to characters like fans, but look at the most dramatic potential while having deadlines.
