We were talking about what famous people we shared a birthday with. She told me she already knew about Bill Clinton, so I looked up a list and learned for the first time that Gene Roddenberry was born on August 19th....
I think this episode is part one of the holonovel followed by the second part during the second half. The only break we take from seeing the holonovel be played is when they tell captain Janeway (where she implies that she has to be made to look good) about the first half and when Tom and Tuvok are in the mess hall being hassled...
::: spoiler Logline A distress call from Lt. Noonien-Singh compels Spock to disobey orders and take the USS Enterprise and its crew into disputed space, risking renewed hostilities with the Klingons in a bid to aid their shipmate. :::...
Pretty much as the title says. I want to watch Discovery, but I just cannot find any streaming services that offer it. It’s supposed to be on Netflix, but it’s not. Tried skyshowtime and tele2 who also don’t have it....
Kev and Rob are swept away in the romance (and the repeated stabbings) of “Something Borrowed, Something Green”, and narrowly avoid the “hump dungeon” on their way to exploring other wedding traditions in Star Trek, including “Data’s Day” (TNG) and “You Are Cordially Invited” (DS9).
Despite the impact of the WGA strike on promotional activities, and the lack of the boost of a major sports event trailer release, SNW placed well against other original streaming shows in the week ending June 16th.

I have watched every film and every episode of every series of Star Trek. It was glorious, the only thing I didn’t really enjoy was the animated series....
Rob & Kev consult their robotic overlord for its opinion on “A Few Badgeys More”, before discussing other episodes where the forces of evil aligned against our heroes were artificial in nature: “The Return of the Archons” (TOS), “Star Trek: The Motion Picture”, “The Ultimate Computer” (TOS) and “Prototype”...
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!...
I started watching Star Trek Discovery. The vibe of the show thus far is pretty fashy and reactionary. There’s always been some good discussion on the nature of the federation and and it’s politics and methods, but so far it feels sinister. I’ve gotten vibes like this from other shows, it’s like the underlying ideology...
I spent the morning listening to the Fall Out Boy version of "We Didn't Start the Fire". Since Star Trek in the Kelvin timeline and elsewhere often re-uses songs from our time, I thought it would be hilarious if "We Didn't Start the Fire" ended up being updated every 35 years or so, till the 32nd century....
