Mythbusters To Test Star Trek’s Gorn Cannon

[Forbin]

The big question is...will they figure out some excuse for putting Kari Byron in a red TOS miniskirt? I'd bust that.

I think my heart just skipped a beat.

 

[Warped9]

I am so going to be there for this episode.

Ditto!

 

[TheLonelySquire]

That's gonna be too funny!

 

[Ronald Held]

No cable, cannot see it, so that is why I asked about it on Youtube.

 

[Yeoman Randi]

Too funny! i just watched this episode about two hours ago while i was making dinner. Looking foward to seeing the real thing.

Thanks a bunch for posting this!

If she's lost the pregnancy weight by then, it's a certainty.

No, the really big question is how bad Adam's Shatner impression will be.

You know he's gonna do it.

God, I wish he'd stop doing those voices. The pirate voice makes me cringe.

Was the Gorn race ever shown again in Star Trek?

If not why not bring them back in XII?

 

[Cakes488]

It says it's for viewers choice for next season. I don't follow this show regularly...does anybody know when next season starts?

One appeared in a mirror universe episode of Enterprise.

There was a Gorn on the Elysian Council in the animated episode "Time Trap". It actually looked a lot better than the CGI Gorn in the ENT episode "In a Mirror, Darkly".

They don't really have very regular seasons. I suspect that this episode will air in November or December. It's also likely the "Build Team" of Kari, Grant, and Tory will do it. The only "involvment" Adam and/or Jamie will have will be in the blueprint "pitch" of the idea or the results summation.

It'll still be a fun episode to see them test even with all already know the results. I also suspect that we will get to see Kari in a miniskirt.

It also hurts his throat, which is why he doesn't do that one very often. Thankfully.

I just can't believe that

Spoiler: what I can't believe

the word "cannon" was used properly for once.

Will it work?

I like the visual aid Grant used in the story meeting.

Man, I wish I had cable/satellite/what-have-you.

That sounds awesome.

Will it be on Youtube?
if it does not work will the Remastered version have to be altered?

A lot of stuff does turn up on YouTube eventually (Mythbusters has their own channel, too) and there's also Discovery's video clips page for Mythbusters.

 

[Ronald Held]

I would prefer this one does. I might be able to use it for part of a convention presentation.

 

[Trevacious]

Did they tape it at Vasquez Rocks?

 

[Mereope]

The thing is, I canceled my cable over a year ago, mainly as a protest at having to pay for so much drek. One of the few things I've missed has been Mythbusters. (Well, maybe a few other educational channels).

Damn. Now I really miss them. I may have to resubscribe. Poor Buster Redshirt.

Did they tape it at Vasquez Rocks?

The proper question is "WILL they tape it at Vasquez Rocks?" It's for this upcoming season.

 

[Peter the Younger]

The chances of it working are almost nil (for one thing, you need to roll gunpowder into grains to get any sort of real power out of the reaction.) But it will be fun watching them try.

Maybe Jamie can dress up as a Gorn.
