It took maybe three minutes of searching for the word "human" in the transcript for the TNG episode Where no one has Gone Before. Another minute to copy/paste the line and write the post.
The "why" is because it is germane to the discussion that Memory Alpha lists vital information about a...
With a whole lot of inconsistencies and specialized attributes thrown in for specific plot purposes.
TNG:Realm of Fear, for example. From what we are told about transporter tech, how can Barclay grab someone out of the transporter stream in mid-transport?
Good point, but Kosinski did say something that appeared to confirm he was human -- or at least very strongly implied it. He said:
"In order to save time, my assistant is going to lay in my base formulas more rapidly than any human being possibly could, including even myself."
However, your...
I was fine with the earlier times DIS showed the funhouse turboshafts. I just told myself "Meh -- it's just a stylized/metaphorical/symbolic representation of the inner workings of the ship and not meant to be a realistic depiction."
Well, they blew that rationalization out of the water.
:vulcan:
I think he was speaking metaphorically and from the perspective of the writers -- not an actual in-universe thing.
Star Trek has often dealt in contemporary (to us) social archetypes through the different species they include. The DSC writers wanted an archetype of a slithery, conniving...
I was speculating this also during that episode. They kept saying that they were detecting one life sign, but they never specified who that one life sign was.
My speculation at the time I was watching the episode was that the monster was Su'Kal (perhaps mutated due to the radiation) and the...
Fun Fact: Lt. Hadley and Lt. Leslie each appeared in more TOS episodes than Sulu -- and only a a handful fewer than Scotty or Uhura. Hadley was in 60 episodes and Leslie was in 57. Sulu was in 51, Scotty 65, and Uhura 67.
Granted, Hadley and Leslie were not always specifically named, but I...
TOS: There are 438 people on the Enterprise; so there are crew members we never see.
Also TOS: But Chekov wasn't part of the crew during Space Seed!
:lol:
True, but it's not the choice of music that bothers me. It's the choice to have music practically the entire time. I believe the last episode, like many the other episodes, had music 100% of the time -- or close to it. There have been a couple of scenes this season where there was no music...
While it does often seem he is only humoring them, it's hard to tell for sure. It might be that because Stamets has no experience at all with Trills, he thinks it is not that too abnormal for Adira to be seeing Gray.
As for why is Adira seeing Gray and whether this is a symptom of a larger...
I wouldn't say it is too loud to hear the dialogue, but the music is constant. That is, there is virtually no part of the audio that does not include music. I usually just tune it out (no pun intended) and that works. However, if I sit and think about (i.e., overthink) the fact that there is...
Maybe, but two things:
We only saw one day-in-the-life of the Guardian in TOS (granted, and another in TAS). We don't know if the limited amount of what we saw is everything the GoF is and does. Since we have only limited info about "him", there's nothing wrong with expanding the GoF to be...
If they want to keep the characters separate, then they could be kept separate. That is to say, a Picard-era Section-31 show does not need to have Picard in it. And Seven/Fenris Rangers (assuming their potential inclusion in an "S31" show that might perhaps take place in the PIC era) don't...
