The Star Trek Thread, Phase II

Given only the first season will be available by then for TNG-R, that limits their options. Still, they could have chosen better episodes. Come on, "Heart of Glory" should have been voted best. I thought Worf was popular? :| I can see "Datalore" getting the vote purely because of the amount of fans Data has, but where does "Where No One Has Gone Before" fit in?

Is anyone actually going to pay money ($12.50) to see this on the big screen?

Furthermore, the 2 episodes they chose as being "most popular" for ST TNG, I totally disagree!!

Popular with who?

Someone who doesn't know anything about Star Trek?

Why would they show FIRST SEASON TNG on the big screen?? Those episodes are HORRIBLE!

That's what I said.

;)

I would had picked 11001001 and Skin of Evil and the 2 parters Redemption and Unification or at least any of the Borg episodes

VOY: "Blink of an Eye"

Wha-

Where the fuck did THIS episode come from!? I feel like Simon Cowell when that ugly fat woman started singing amazingly well. Wow!

Ten bricks of gold-pressed latinum says the next episode is shit.

I'll say BLINK was missing at least one note in the story; the Doctor learning the fate of his "son". And actually what all of that meant. And how that time on the planet affected him after. I mean, it's part of way to that O'Brien prison episode in that respect.

VOY: "Virtuoso"

In the near words of Kerim Bey, "Back to the shit mines."

Yeah, "Blink of an Eye" is one of my alltime favourite Voyager episodes. It's actually good Star Trek.

VOY: "Memorial"

I hope I forget it. I'd rather watch "The Inner Light".

Sorry I can't come up with longer and more thoughtful recaps, but it's hard when I just don't care about what I've just watched. If I hate an episode? That gives me fuels. Same for one I love. And I can do one for an episode I like. But when I just don't care, I just don't care.

BTW, after I wrap up VOY, I only have TAS and I've seen all of Trek. I'm thinking of going at a slower rate through ENT again, then TOS, then TAS and the films before Abrams' next shitfest hits cinemas. Not sure yet.

What I really noticed is that midway through Season 6 of VOY you really start thinking "I liked this episode better when it was called..." The recycling gets really obvious.

It'll be interesting when I see ENT again, as I saw it originally before I went through TNG.

VOY: "Tsunkatse"

I was entertained and happy to see old friends as guest stars. I don't mean Dwayne.

That one caught me by surprise, cuz I thought only THE ROCK was the guest star and discovering Combs and Heltzer was also in it was great. With DS9 finished, we should have seen more of them on VOY.

Just started watching "Collective" and something in the teaser annoyed me. Tom is just sitting there for several seconds gaping at a FUCKING BORG CUBE! Srsly, wouldn't any Starfleet officer worth his salt say, "Hey guys, it's a FUCKING BORG CUBE!" instead of just sitting there letting it approach? I mean, he's the helmsman!

Especially since they've already seen it more times than the TNG crew did in their lifetime. This shit should be routine for them by this point.

VOY: "Collective"

"Miri of Borg"

Q: What is something that 39 armed Federation starships can not do, but five bad child actors can?
A: Destroy the Borg.

The whole episode I'm thinking of Wolf 359, of the colossal (for that time) ass raping that Starfleet got. And here we have a standoff with a bunch of fucking Borg kids. And played by weak actors on top of that. Ugh.

What's next, a Borg version of the hit Broadway musical Oliver!? How about LITTLE DRONE ANNIE?

So these stupid kids are recurring now? I'm calling them the Little Rascals.

Maquis? Rick won't go for it.

Tom Paris' womanizing? Jeri won't go for it.

Equinox crew? Rick won't go for it.

Suder? Jeri won't go for it.

Borg Kids? Rick approves.


I'll be amazed if you can make it through that episode with Neelix telling spooky stories to the Borg kids. I just couldn't finish it. It featured three things I hated: Neelix, Borg Kids, and bullshit stories that don't matter. Even nuTrek is more enjoyable.

F***IN' Voyager, man.



I'd make some joke about how she's the only reason I keep watching, but she's actually a great actress on the show. It's just unfortunate that she's one of only three actress the show actively acknowledges at this point.

Star Trek died when DS9 ended.
