    Major Women of ST

    So. Please rank? I'd love hear your thoughts and your alternatives. I'm including main or recurring characters. Except for 2. From a season or many. For the moment, animation is included. Just for the fun of it. (Well rounded women characters of ST): 1. DS9. Kira Nerys 2. TNG/PIC Ro Laren 3...

    An aside

    I'm sure every Trekkie has seen this, but just in case: It's a lovely interview. Plus it has Nimoy.

    Is it lunchtime?

    I was just wondering how much Trek has influenced us, determined us, and our imagination of the deep dark beyond. I was watching Babylon 5. S4E18. "Intersections in Real Time." The way Sheridon is interrogated reminded me of Picard (TNG S6E10:Chain of Command): there are ... FOUR lights! Two...

    A Great Day

    So. I just managed to show my parents Star Trek. I started with Garak, then Dukat, Sisko, and finally Jean-Luc. I also showed them 7. Mother says brilliant! Father. Speechless. I have one more episode to show them. DS9: The Visitor. :) Whaddya say?

    Pic/Q

    But ... Why? Why does all this matter? Why me? Q: Even Gods have favourites Jean-Luc. And you've always been one of mine. I never thought PIC S2 could be bettered. But there is S3. I have to say: i will miss Patrick Stewart. Just as I missed Leonard Nimoy. According to my little self, these...

    Michael Burnham Crying

    Never in Star Trek have I seen so much emotion. Not even Khaaaaaaan!

    An Unusual(ly) Sad Story

    Clues | S4Ep14 There's something immensely sad about this episode, which I think ranks up there with S2's Measure of a Man. It would seem that well into their journey, Picard's crew and Picard himself, could not fully trust Data's loyalty towards Starfleet and especially Enterprise/Picard...

    Happy New Year!

    To all my fellow Trekkies! May this year bring to you, all happiness and contentment for all the yesterdays, todays and especially, tomorrows. I love this group, as I do you all. LLAP.

    Curious

    EWR, Eugene Wesley Roddenberry Sr., the creator of Star Trek, was always suspicious of religion in the distant future. Yet, at the last moment, he created the character of Q - one of the most important characters after Spock and Data - just before Encounter at Farpoint. A "God." It was not a...

    The best moment in ST

    Of course people might disagree. There are many PIC haters. But, except the Kirk/Spock farewell in WoK (a film, thus different), I feel this is just... I think ST, despite its depiction of women, has always been about bromance. Fan service? Yes. Still. Congratulations to the people who...

    Poll Your favourite Duo in ST TV/Streaming

    Because ST was never just about individuals. Rate by combined charisma/acting as evidenced across time. (The dynamic, not a personal favourite actor; though that could be the same thing). Caveats: 1. NO movies allowed. A not so subtle attempt to exclude the Kelvin timeline (which I hate, but...

    For the love of J-L Picard. Who's your favourite actor?

    Who's your favourite actor? You see, In my crazy head, there was always a competition going on. About Trek actors. Leonard Nimoy vs Patrick Stewart. There was that Spiner too. And Visitor. Oh, she was good! And then Alaimo. Or Robinson. And a little known actor called James Sloyan (TNG, The...

    Let's Talk about Ferengi

    Revisiting an earlier post from TNG: It would appear that ST needs to resolve the "Ferengi" issue. DS9 managed to flesh out one of the most important species, next to Vulcans, Romulans or Klingons: the Ferengi! Cardassians, Bajorans, Xindi etc. appear much later (within Canon literature)...

    Q: Best Lines

    I apologise if there's already a thread to this effect. Will check. For now, I'll start off: Picard: Return that moon to its orbit! Mortal Q: I have no powers! Q, the ordinary! Picard: Q, the liar; Q, the misanthrope! Mortal Q: Q, the miserable; Q, the desperate! ... What must I do to...

    Let's agree to disagree.

    Enuff Said

    Since Pulaski and Data are totally favourites.

    Rescuing Enterprise

    Ok. Let's be honest. By and large most Trekkies accept (if grudgingly) that ENT was a missed shot. I mean, something went right with TOS, TNG, DS9, even VOY, which ENT simply did not achieve/recreate. (And then 2017 onwards...) What are the reasons? Was it ham-handed Scott Bakula as...
