One can see the intent to have TNG flesh out a Cardassian trilogy with The Wounded, Ensign Ro, & Preemptive Strike, & certainly with the Klingon arc, the Duras & K'Ehleyr & Kurn etc... But it's much more obscure trying to spell out the Romulan arc, which I feel centers around Tomalak. Clearly...

A lot has been said over the years about the inexplicably abrupt reinstatement of Picard after numerous events that we'd realistically consider damaging enough to merit being relieved for recovery. Many of us have just chalked it up to futuristic healthcare being overall better enough than ours...

Not enough is said imho about Jonathan Frakes' turn as director on this episode, which was only his 4th opportunity at directing, after The Offspring, Reunion & The Drumhead. There is a deliberate effort on his part to take what is a basic bottle episode, with a ton of repurposed dialogue...

...And why IMHO it does better service to the franchise than their movies did. On the surface, All Good Things... is rather standard fare for a TNG plot. A dangerous temporal disturbance, not unlike Time Squared, or Cause & Effect, or even Timescape, a jarring phenomenon for one of the cast of...

I do! I like Nurse Ogawa! She is the character that specifically makes me wish they had more characters like her on TNG. So, In honor of the sad passing of Patti Yasutake, I offer a discussion on her beloved TNG character (including my own rather unpopular opinion, to spice things up lol) You...

So apparently, we've been thinking about this phenomenon all wrong. Moths & bugs etc... aren't actually being attracted to light. Most flying insects are instinctually driven to orient themselves with their backs to the sun or moon, as a means to properly direct their flight. Artificial light...

1st, I'll get this out of the way. Data is presented in Star Trek as sentient & even sapient. They recognize him as such. He himself demonstrates pretty convincingly to the viewer imho that he is such. So, for this discussion I'm moving past the usual debate about the believability of an AI...

It's never really brought up, so is it made clear enough in TWoK that all those followers of Khan's (Like 14ish?) are the children of his original 72 Botany Bay Survivors? They're all as young or younger than David Marcus. Khan is the only one of his age group who was strong enough to still be alive

As of the time of most Star Trek, humans have really only been out on the interstellar stage for a few hundred years, a mere blip in most of its beings' histories, including humans themselves. Yet, they've managed to make themselves a focal point for all interstellar geopolitics in that time &...

So, after years of having personal liberties trampled upon, Data ends up being maybe the only sole known to the Federation willing & capable of hacking into the Borg Collective & saving everyone from assimilation after Wolf 359, for which he'd receive no promotion. (& never will) Which, on a...

Maybe it's someone you think could've benefitted from a hug, or someone you think deserves a hug for being who or what they were. Maybe it's just someone you'd think would be great to have a hug with. Whatever your motive for a good hug, who in history jumps to the front of the line for you to...

I dunno. Something fun. Ever have any ideas about episodes you'd like to have seen? In Theory irked me so much, because of how wrong about Data Jenna is, that I wanted Data to rebound by dating Dr. Selar, & having it go wonderfully, maybe as a small part of another Data's Day type episode...

We're closing in on someday having him settle on his last project & it's had me considering the overarching breadth of his catalog thus far. The entirety of his work has been either period pieces or retro flicks that lament the 60's & 70's era of film (Which he came up in). Even his westerns or...

So far, I'm rather stunned at these turnouts. I consider the 1st night a major upset, as both Ryan Long & Megan Wachspress are superior players IMHO Andrew He's major wagering mistake didn't cost him the win but should have And Margaret Sheldon's wagering mistake cost her a game I think she'd...

With only one episode left to release in season 2, I have to say, I really enjoy this show. Doing long form crime mystery is a touch & go prospect, & I feel the 30 minute format & the comedic charm really helps this one along. It's good for it to not take itself too seriously. Got some fun guest...

So there's a lot of ways to look at this, like the most versatile actor might be Gary Oldman (I'm really annoyed that autocorrect tried to make that Gary Coleman . Like... NO lol) or arguably Johnny Depp. The most powerful actor might be Daniel Day-Lewis. One of the most celebrated might be RDJ...

Who here has seen every last minute of all the Star Trek ever produced? I know I haven't. It almost seems Herculean at this point. It's like up to 650+ hours now, right? If any of you have, you should get a badge or something :techman: If not, feel free to comment on how much you have/haven't...

She couldn't resist calling, having seen the ad's claims that read "Have your skin looking smoother and tighter in just one night". To its credit, it did in fact undeniably fit on him in exactly those ways.

It was a sizable factor in their screen time, & I still have questions. Did Data's blunt honest criticism ultimately destroy Picard's interest in painting? He didn't seem to have much else except occasionally reading & a detective holoprogram now & then, until the Kataan flute came aboard. So...

So back in the 50s/60s when there was something people thought of as fashionably exciting, they began calling it cool. In the 70s/80s those things began being called hot. In the 90s we'd call it smoking. I seem to recall a move in the 2000s to them being called lit. Now we got people just plain...
