No weirder than an American-accented Romulan, or an English-accented one. Well, I'm sure there were people in the '60s who complained about T'Pau having an Austrian accent when other Vulcans had American or mid-Atlantic accents.

An attempted joke at all the folks objecting to an Irish accented Romulan. Forgot Condon was Irish, so joke fail. :p

Lucas had NO CLUE of where the Star Wars saga would go. Heck the main characters were being changed a lot in development. Han Solo was a green shinned monster with gills and Luke Skywalker was called Annakin Starkiller who was a general from a family of dwarfs. The first movie wasn't even called...

Those are not continuity issues. It's called adding backstory. None of it contradicted ANH. Of course Lucas didn't have all three films planned out. Any nerd worth his salt knows this. What you are describing is not continuity or canon. As for Han shooting Greedo second. So what??That was...

You're...you're joking, right? One need only look at the Original Trilogy to see retcon after retcon. Vader started out as the guy who killed Luke's father in Star Wars, only to become his actual dad in Empire...simply because Lucas thought this was a better twist than having Obi-wan being the...

...remembering every fact he's exposed to, there was zero relevance for him to bring it up. Then again, I loved his recollection in GEN about the joke not told in "Encounter at Farpoint" that he just "got", proving that off-screen hints can fit without tripping over anything major (hi Borg...

...me. It wasn't stunningly original but it hit the right notes. I don't like Carol Kane in anything, but even her weirdly timed end of the episode joke worked because it called back to the inappropriate jokes at the end of episodes where like a star system was destroyed or 7 guys died just...

I don't recall the details. Not even sure where I first heard it. Could have been a TNG dvd extra or me reading the TNG book companion where you will see people giving some behind the scenes info. I do think it was suppose to happen in the caves setting when she and Picard are looking for the...

What kind of joke? If it was meant to be a flippant suggestion as to why the tricorder wasn't working and not a serious idea, the objection to the joke must've been something else.

And that would be wrong because...?

I remember the Vash actor, Jennifer Hetrick, wanting to make a joke about the tri-corder batteries being dead and someone had to point out to her the device didn't use batteries and I recall Gary Graham talking about being frustrated with wanting to change a line on "Voyager."

I didn't find it much of a joke and they use the animated series as a way to get it in there.

The "re-creation" joke shows they dig deeper than most of their critics.

...that's lazy writing and against Gene's Vision. The writers need to earn their paycheck by making in a sci-fi thing like an alien infection that manifests itself with PTSD like symptoms instead. ;) Yes, this is a joke referencing things people actually said during Detmer's PTSD storyline on...

I thought he was given the expositional dialog because Data was a Android & the effective equivalent of a Walking Encyclopedia.

It's a joke. Science officers are often given expositional dialog, as was Data.

...and threat of the alien. When he called her a “Lanthanite Child”…good stuff. And then she finishes off her big scary speech at the end with the joke about the photo. So good. The fight with suddenly feral Batel was good too. If this species is so old, how old does that make the Gorn that it...

...S1, but the we have the Voyager characters talking about using holodecks when they were children. And then Lower Decks has the characters in awe of the holodecks again, even though at this point, they're not new at all. Though I suspect Lower Decks was making a meta joke about this inconsistency.

You're talking like "nightmare-fodder" is a bad thing. :) As I like to point out, we kinda expected to SF to be scary sometimes back in the sixties. See The Twilight Zone, The Outer Limits, even Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, etc. That was part of the appeal. The Outer Limits often...

...systems are green,” Erami reported, before glancing at the Orion woman with a hopeful grin, “No pun intended.” Denella didn’t react to the joke, and kept her expression serious and her attention fixed on the antique instruments in front of her. Inside, she was still a cavalcade of confused...
