    One Episode Wonder: "Vulcan Master"

    Good afternoon. Was anyone else here intrigued by the unnamed Vulcan master from Season 5's "Gravity"? It is a shame we did not receive more characters such as these for the various alien races; they afforded their kind a degree of depth without sacrificing the essence of what made them unique.

    "The Borg Scare"

    Good morning. In "Homefront", Sisko's pop says the following -> At the time, I didn't think much of the dialogue (that line included); now, I find his observation strange in the context of the conversation. He's saying this to a man who lost his wife to the Borg...Joseph's own...

    Yulian and Ez'ree

    Good morning. Did the pairing of Julian Bashir and Ezri Dax make for a believable couple? If not, why not?

    Worst/most implausible instance of skepticism in a Trek series?

    Good afternoon. Which moment - in any Star Trek series - involved an individual facing disbelief for their theory/opinion that pushed your suspension of disbelief to the limit? In other words: the conflict was engineered for maximum drama at the cost of any sort of consistency.

    [Just for fun] Your favorite...at Quark’s?

    Good afternoon. Assuming you either reside on Deep Space Nine or frequent the location while passing through the galactic neighborhood, what drink or food (pick one of each, if you wish) would you have Quark stock up on just for you? Keep in mind that there's a price factor involved: if not...

    "Collective": Tuvok's reassurance to Harry?

    Hello! Recently, I was thinking of dialogue from "Collective" (i.e., the episode where we meet the Borg adolescents). There was a moment when Harry Kim was stuck onboard a Borg cube and relaying information back to Voyager; the gloomy scenery finally began to rattle his nerves and Tuvok -...

    Thought exercise: One ENT episode with an unlimited budget?

    Good evening. If you could take a single episode of Star Trek: Enterprise and reshoot it with an unlimited budget (for actors, special effects, scoring, et cetera), which would it be and why?

    Thought exercise: One DS9 episode with an unlimited budget?

    Good afternoon. If you could take a single episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and reshoot it with an unlimited budget (for actors, special effects, scoring, et cetera), which would it be and why?

    Thought exercise: One VOY episode with an unlimited budget?

    Good evening. If you could take a single episode of Star Trek: Voyager and reshoot it with an unlimited budget (for actors, special effects, scoring, et cetera), which would it be and why?

    Thought exercise: One TOS episode with an unlimited budget?

    Good evening. If you could take a single episode of Star Trek: The Original Series and reshoot it with an unlimited budget (for actors, special effects, scoring, et cetera), which would it be and why?

    Thought exercise: One TNG episode with an unlimited budget?

    Good evening. If you could take a single episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation and reshoot it with an unlimited budget (for actors, special effects, scoring, et cetera), which would it be and why?

    "The Wrath of Khan": Just what IS that sound effect?

    Good afternoon. There is a sound effect in The Wrath of Khan whose origin/purpose has puzzled me to this day. Listen to the background during 0:18 in the following clip -> Yeah, it's that haunting wavering rippling echo. What - precisely - is it supposed to represent? You will hear it again...

    "Rise": The utility of lying in a crisis...

    Good afternoon. Do you believe that Neelix was in the wrong when he gave a false impression of competency? Should he have come clean with Tuvok (perhaps in private?) when the idea to fix the orbital tether's carriage popped into his head? I can imagine the exchange going something like this ->

    Best DS9 exploration and/or diplomacy episodes?

    Good afternoon. I've been trying to compile a list of DS9 episodes that hewed to the classic Star Trek formula (which would exclude those chiefly concerning commerce, religion and war/murder). Which episodes focused on exploration with a minimum of accompanying violence? Which episodes involved...

    [VOY -> DS9] "Nothing Human" in the Alpha Quadrant?

    Good evening. For those of you who are familiar with the Voyager episode "Nothing Human", do you think this script - with sufficient modification - would have worked just as well if not better over on DS9? I assume we would have seen the real Moset instead of a recreation.

    Eggs with a side of Brooks

    Good evening. Throughout the entire run of DS9, what were some of Avery Brooks' hammiest performances (be they intentionally over-the-top or incidentally excessive)? Don't limit yourself to Ben Sisko: on a few occasions, he played characters other than the hard-charging Commander-turned-Captain.

    "Chain of Command": Selling the suffering?

    Good evening. How did the production crew manage to make Patrick Stewart as Jean-Luc Picard so sweaty? Was he spritzed with water? Perhaps it was some kind of shiny oil that would contrast well against his skin (and show up well on standard-definition televisions of the time)? Did Stewart...

    A special talk with Naomi...

    Good evening. Is it your belief that our Ensign Wildman eventually informed "her" daughter as to the true origin of post-"Deadlock" Naomi?

    Cinematic TOS episodes?

    Good evening. Which TOS episodes feel like proper films? By dint of particular cinematography, set design, scoring, acting, writing, et cetera, they would fit right in on the silver screen...either as-is or if expanded to two (maybe even more!) installments.

    "A Matter of Honor": Admiral Mendon?

    Good afternoon. Do you believe that badass Benzite eventually rose through the ranks and attained Admiralty?
