I'm having some of my nerdier friends over for dinner before going to see the new Trek movie, and I thought it'd be fun to prepare some Trek-inspired food and such. I'll be making Warp Core Breaches (from Quark's Bar at the old Star Trek Experience -- dry ice and all! :D) and my version of...

I don't know about you guys, but Martok is my favorite Klingon ever. He starts out as a cook on a flagship, and ends up becoming the Chancellor of the whole danged Klingon Empire. He's a great warrior, a brilliant strategist and leader, and a loyal friend. He even makes Worf, Jadzia and...

So my parents are pretty big Trek fans. They've watched TOS, TNG, and VOY, as well as most of ENT. But for some reason, they've never had any desire to watch DS9. Their main argument is that it's not "Trek" because it's set on a station, and the crew "doesn't go anywhere". :rolleyes: Parents. So...

WARNING: Lots of spoilers, so don't read this unless you've watched the whole series. I've been trying to figure this out. During DS9's run, Dukat is at least old enough to be Kira's father, but he looks like he's still in his prime. Tekeny Ghemor was only nineteen at the beginning of the...

My friend and I were talking about this the other day. When we were growing up, channels like Discovery, TLC, and the History Channel were chock-full of interesting, educational shows. Now, I'm only twenty-eight, so this wasn't that long ago. But now it seems that all of these channels have...

There's no getting around it. Star Trek has had some pretty silly-looking aliens. Sometimes the makeup artists were trying to be creative and original. Other times, well... it's kind of obvious they just slapped something together on the fly. Either way, the result is usually hilarious. So what...

Well, I watched the two-part series premiere of Enterprise. My first impression: better than I remembered. (Granted, I don't remember all that much.) The CGI scenes look very nice, and the acting is more or less decent; at least, no one stands out as exceptionally bad. The Suliban are creepy and...

So I've seen every other Trek series (some multiple times) and I watched the first two seasons of Enterprise when it first aired, but then I lost interest. I just couldn't get into it, or force myself to care about any of the characters. But now I'm wondering, now that I'm older, if I might...

I was just thinking. The Doctor was programmed with the knowledge and experience - and, conceivably, personalities - of 47 (there's that number again) medical officers. Do you think it's probable that one of them was Leonard McCoy? I'd say it's more than likely. They both have similarly grumpy...

I thought it'd be interesting to see which kid out of all the Star Trek series was the most well-liked. Let's refrain from making this a hate thread, shall we?

Hi. First of all, I realize it's been a while. It's always a good idea to write down your password. And that's all I'll say on the subject. :whistle: Anyway, I noticed that there no threads speculating the types of the Voyager characters, according to the Myers Briggs test. I realize it's not...

I figured, with all the threads focusing on things we DIDN'T like about the characters, it was time for something a little more positive. I think we can all agree that Garak, plain and simple as he is, is one of the best DS9 characters; possibly even one of the best Star Trek characters period...

For me, it was "Our Man Bashir". One of my all-time favorites. Nana Visitor's purposely awful Russian accent makes me smile. And you've gotta love Bashir and Garak in tuxedos. What was the last one you watched?

As most of us know, it wasn't uncommon for characters from one series to make appearances in others. Bashir and Quark did on TNG, Picard and Riker (well, sort of Riker) did on DS9, and Troi and Barclay did on VOY. But Reg never appeared on DS9, and I wish he had. I think it would have been great...

Hey, fellow Niners! I'm new here. I'd curtsey, but there doesn't seem to be an emoticon for that. So I'll just do this. :D Anyway, I'm currently re-watching DS9, and it occurred to me that one of the things that makes the series so great is its enormous cast of awesome supporting characters...
