For many years now I’ve had in my memory this scene from star trek tng where, for whatever reason, a group of British officers and Irish officers led by O’Brien start getting nationalistic and sing their respective national songs at each other. I remember the British were singing “Rule Britannia” but I don’t recall the...
• The episode title is reference to the Harlan Ellison short story, “I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream”. Ellison also wrote the TOS episode, “The City on the Edge of Forever”....
I rewatched the first episode of Voyager, and when Neelix first comes aboard the ship, he marvels at the great culture that created it. Tuvok says something along the lines of “The Federation is made up of many cultures. I am Vulcan”. A few scenes later, Neelix calls Tuvok “Mr. Vulcan”, and Tuvok does not correct him....
• The episode title calls back to the VOY season two episode, “Tuvix”, in which Neelix and Tuvok are combined into a single being by due to the unique properties of an alien orchid and the transporter....
I asked this question sometime ago on The Orville’s subreddit, and surprisingly got mixed responses. I assume most here however, are going to prefer Star Trek, specifically TNG that its aping from. For the record I do prefer TNG as well, but rewatching The Orville, after you get past its kinda sucky first season, I really...
My partner is into DS9 and suggested we watch some last night. For some reason episode 1 was not available on Amazon Prime.(?) We watched Past Prologue and A Man Alone. As someone who is only barely familiar with the Star Trek universe, here are my thoughts:...
HAPPY STAR TREK DAY!!! I started watching Star Trek last year and I started with TOS, my Star Trek watching has slowed down a bit but I love this franchise and can’t wait to finish TNG! For Star Trek day I’m celebrating by the only tv I’m allowed to watch (unless something huge happens in the world today) will be Star...
The title refers to the legendarily controversial VOY episode “Tuvix”, which is still so divisive in fandom today that discussions on it are tightly regulated, if not outright banned, in some fan forums....
I always thought that the idea of Enterprise was intriguing, and that the characters had a lot of potential. I don’t think the show lived up to its own possibilities. But that’s where books can make up the difference, maybe!...
EDIT: We are back, see this thread in /c/Quark’s It’s read-only so that we don’t miss anything while all our isolinear chips get backed up. Apologies for the inconvenience and we’ll resume full-power systems ASAP.
spoilerBasically the title. That Klingon Pop (K-Pop?) was so unexpected and funny. Such a good comedic timing. But that bit was too short compared to other songs in this episode. I am a little disappointed.

In “All Those Who Wander”, we see the Enterprise away team visit the crashed Peregrine, find frozen and/or mutilated bodies of the crew outside and inside, two survivors inside, and a log from the captain explaining that they’d picked up three castaways, one of whom (an Orion) killed himself with a plasma grenade to...
Susan Oliver was playing a green-skinned Orion slave girl, but I had to test her makeup because she was too expensive and I was under contract already; I was cheap, they had to pay me anyway. The makeup they put on me was green as green can be, but they kept on sending out the rushes and we would get it back for the next day,...
For a while now I have been wanting to play old episodes of TNG, DS9, VOY, and ENT in the background in Spanish during the day to passively brush up on my Spanish....
