    Where did this happen and why are you derailing the thread over it?

    Sorry, clarification: The appearance of the sehlat. The design in Enterprise was modeled after the TAS appearance.

    But thanks for pointing it out. I've edited the original post since the way I initially phrased it was definitely inaccurate.

    I think we need to get over the Baku thing. It’s one place from one movie, and there are trillions or quadrillions of people in the galaxy who get sick or old or die: they’re not all going to just pack up and go there, deus ex machina. Point is, the kid was sick and modern medicine nor a gated community could save him. That’s the metaphor the planet represented, I think.

    So JL lost to JLo?

    My brother and sister are blondes. My parents are brunettes. It happens.

    Dude, give it up. Your novelverse is over.

    Not the Titan though.

    No she doesn't. Brother dear is tracking La Sirena via Jurarti.

    She doesn't know that.

    And even if it did happen, that’s no excuse to be making that comment. It’s not the same thing to attack someone about their place of birth vs something biological. And “an eye for an eye” leaves the whole world blind. Do not make fun of people even if you’re made fun of. That’s their mistake, and it shouldn’t also be yours.

    The Titan was established in Nemesis, not the novels. (And the exterior and the bridge were shown non-canonically at Star Trek: The Tour with Tuvok and Wesley as crew members.)

    While data is referred to as sojis father, maddox would fit the way soong was called datas father. How will soji react once she learns agnes killed maddox?

    I don't really like how Hugh basically sacrificed himself and all these xBs to help out Picard and Soji. I wish it was resolved better.

    Stupid Romulans.

    Holy shit that episode rocked. And it had some awful shit in it too. FFS why the fuck do you have the Rikers have a son that died from something that could have been cured by having an active positronic matrix when they knew all 4 Soong type androids. C'mon that is terrible awful, overcoincidentally, 10^-2345678 and it still happens type of bullshit yet this episode still is a 10. As for the preview for next week. 10 WFTs.

    I wonder if I enjoy these more at night as opposed to at 5 AM.

    Someone on Memory-Alpha thinks one of the xB's in this episode looked like a Hirogen

    I'm seriously wondering how her creation got past Chabon. It makes me wonder if there isn't something else going on with her that we're not privy to yet.

    Could have gotten closer to the house so the old man didn't have to walk so far. ;)

    Have you met Star Trek???? :lol:

    He was always a bit of an ass.
    Yes, internet searches are a great way to do this.

    I was thinking Leif Garrett, but that might just be the hair. :lol:

    The photo of Picard with infant Thad was taken in 2381 or 2382 which means the uniform change happened not long after NEM and not closer to 2385 and the Synth attack on Mars. It was also taken in the Enterprise-E observation lounge.
