    Spoilers ST Strange New Worlds - Starships and Technology Season Three Discussion

    It could be an allusion to Jefferies' idea that the Enterprise was hull 01 of the 17th starship design.

    Spoilers ST Strange New Worlds - Starships and Technology Season Three Discussion

    20-1... I wonder if that's some kind of in-joke hidden meaning or it's just random numbers. Either way they should have padded one of the numbers with a leading zero just to piss off the Prime Universe gatekeeper nerds out there.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 3x04 - "A Space Adventure Hour"

    I was confused by the opening Last Frontier segment. As satire, it doesn't have any bite, since none of the jokes apply to TOS (apart from the too-short skirts and the somewhat tremulous female crew member); we are meant to think Last Frontier is poorly written, poorly acted, poorly lit, poorly...

    Reading Marathon: The Typhon Pact... and Beyond!

    ...setup, but I don't really know why, because he promptly vanishes from the story in favor of the "evil Riker" approach. There is a Nick Locarno joke here. James Swallow beat Lower Decks to the punch! Jake calls Rebecca his "stepsister" (p. 151), but that's wrong, she's a half-sister. Endalla...

    Why is Star Trek so bad with women characters?

    ...being given the shit sandwich of "sexy Borg babe" by the network, it took only a few episodes for the writers and Ryan to turn Seven from a joke into a serious character (and one of the best in Star Trek). Even DS9, which had an all-male writers' room arguably had a bit more of a macho tone...

    The Naked Gun (2025) Teaser trailer

    Saw this last night and had lots of fun. Liam Neesom was perfect in the role and I loved the fact they also did noir-style narration. Pamela Anderson was also surprisingly good in this. There were so many good jokes and little nods to the original movies, and a great post-credits scene.

    Gina Carano Sueing for Wrongful Termination from Disney

    Even when you're not at work when you say things, you're still going to be associated with the company in people's minds, and the companies are not going to want to be associated with you. I'm not a fan of the big corporations either, but they're all about their public image, and they're not...

    Firebird's Sketch of the Week Series

    Good catch on the spelling, I just didn't realize it since I was typing fast as usual. The body just automatically spelled what I thought it was, whoops, my bad. I'll go edit & fix it.

    Firebird's Sketch of the Week Series

    I can't tell, are you joking? Because it's spelled with an E.

    Gina Carano Sueing for Wrongful Termination from Disney

    ...statement she made was the one disney fired her for. I dont recall her making any racist remarks. I.guess you're talking about her pronouns joke? People kept harassing her to put pronouns on her X and she didnt want go si she put beep boop bop or something like that. Whatever else I dont...

    Fan reactions to Starfleet Academy's female Jem'Hadar/Klingon hybrid character

    ...the business and becoming showrunner for STP and all, but when it comes to the notion of a continuity of production from Roddenberry, this is a joke. I'll happily grant that he's closer than Kurtzman and Goldsman, having at least been in the same room with Berman (I presume), but he was...

    Fan reactions to Starfleet Academy's female Jem'Hadar/Klingon hybrid character

    Well, that's how we got the explanation for the Romulans and I'm sure that causes no questions at all. :whistle:

    Fan reactions to Starfleet Academy's female Jem'Hadar/Klingon hybrid character

    Roddenberry joked about northern and southern Klingons, but inasmuch as a canonical explanation, there never was one.

    I mean, we had British Romulans in TNG. Why CAN'T they have several accents the way we do?
