    So Bajor made one of it's moons uninhabitable for some energy

    its* Season 1 "Progress" And apparently enough energy to heat "two hundred thousand homes". Seriously, sometimes you'd think Bajor only had like 10 million people the way they talk about it, they needed to scale up the numbers a lot. But regardless of that, I found it disturbing that they...

    I wouldn't want Bajor in the Federation if I was a Fed

    I'm rewatching DS9 from the beginning at the moment and remembering what I love about it...anyway they were already talking about admitting Bajor to the Federation in DS9 but is it just me or does the planet not quite seem to meet the standards? It seems like it was still a planet full of very...

    The problem with "Archer's Theme"

    Is I felt it was a bit too cheerful/hopeful for a theme that ends the show, a bit like TNG's theme. I think DS9 and VOY got the balance right, the theme over the end credits should be able to fit perfectly with a happy or whimsical ending, as well as a thoughtful or sad one. Whatever way a...

    Star Trek TNG on CBS action - short clips of the actors

    So on CBS Action here in the UK, there is a trekspert who introduces new episodes and there was a short clip of him talking to the various TNG actors and when he was speaking to Burton he said "Its said that the worst thing you can do to an actor is cover his eyes" and Burton replied "Its true...

    First Impressions of Trek (before you began watching)

    I only became a full fan of Trek when Enterprise started and it was advertised a lot on TV so I gave it a go and found it so new and exciting. Before that I'd mostly thought Trek was really stupid looking, I'd based my judgements on DS9 because every time I turned over there was some bizarre...

    Whose autograph would you most want?

    I don't have any Trek autographs and have never met a trek actor in my life, so I have a lot to choose from. For some reason I think I most want to meet Terry Farrell and get her autograph. She just seems like such a down to earth person and is beautiful to boot. After that I'd like the...

    A character with a visor was a mistake

    Does anyone else feel this way? Not being able to see an actor's eyes is just annoying, its true that you really do see people's emotions etc through their eyes and Geordi always just felt absent to me because his eyes were covered up with that damned visor.

    TNG vs DS9 vs VOY

    I thought it would be interesting to compare comparable episodes (of the same genre or story type) across the 3 series (or more if you want!) and see which you prefer. For example: Messing with memory (episodes where memory plays an important part) Clues vs Equilibrium vs Latent Image Those...

    Your favorite writers?

    Who are your favorite Trek episode writers? I had a look at my 30 favorite episodes list and tallied up the writers and found there was a 3 way tie between Braga/Moore and Menosky who all had 7 episodes each. Looking at the complete lists of episodes on memory alpha, I'd have to Ronald D...

    The AV club is now reviewing "Deep Space Nine"!!

    I don't know if many of you use this site but its one of my favorite media sites www.avclub.com The reviewer Zack Handeln previously went through every episode of TNG http://www.avclub.com/tvclub/tvshow/star-trek-the-next-generation,102/ and now he's going through all of DS9 except this time...

    I don't think the writers ever got their heads round joined Trills

    Watching the show, I never got the impression that the writers really had a firm grasp on what it means to be a joined Trill incorporating the host and the symbiont. Does anyone else feel this way? It seemed to swing between Jadzia basically being Dax in a new body to Jadzia having the memories...

    Your top 10 favorite Voyager episodes?

    I haven't seen a thread like this around in a while and I always like them! So I thought we should all take a break from arguing over what was wrong with Voyager and look at its high points. So mine are as follows 1. Barge of the Dead I think Voyager did "death" stories fantastically well -...

    Poll Time: Should they have made Sisko ____ (Season 7 spoilers)

    Half prophet? I personally found it a big mistake. I just found myself rolling my eyes so much through the early episodes of season 7 and wondering when we were going to get back to normal DS9. It definitely derailed a bit in season 7 I don't care what anyone says. Well what's your opinion?

    Your favorite trek episode in category?

    I'd say trek episodes can be categorized, so can you think of any categories and which are your favorite episodes that fit into them? Some I can think of Political commentary: "The High Ground" Comedy: "The Magnificent Ferengi" Love story: "Lessons" Time travel: "Before and After"...

    Compare equivalent episodes across all Treks! (FUN!)

    I thought it would be fun to have a thread where someone compares all a specific episode of a specific season across all the shows. So for example, comparing all season 4 episode 21 (picked randomly) shows across all the Trek shows. TNG vs DS9 vs VOY vs ENT "The Drumhead" vs "The Muse"...

    Your top 20 (or 10) Episodes?

    I haven't seen a thread like this in ages, so I thought I'd make one. I actually made a video of my top 20 favorite episodes so feel free to watch that instead of reading the written list :rommie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJlkywoGSAs 20. The Defector Fantastic mix of intrigue...

    The 5 worst story/episode resolutions in Trek?

    Excluding finales, what are the 5 worst episode/story resolutions in Trek in your opinion? In choosing my 5, I've kinda tried to avoid choosing terrible episodes because most bad episodes tend to have bad endings. I've tried to go for episodes that were good but had awful endings that tainted...

    What is the shortest teaser?

    I have a feeling it might be "Human Error" or "Maneuvers". Does anyone know for sure?
