I would have actually liked a Troi cameo on DS9 because it is the only way we would have ever seen the character acknowledge that the Dominion conquered her homeworld.

That's another part of DS9 still being very much a nineties episodic show. People criticize Voyager inventing character details out of whole cloth (it has a habit of giving characters ticks and foibles mentioned once and then never again) but DS9 could do standalone episodes like this with suddenly introduced problems

Fair enough. I notice he's changed his review name and avatar; it used to be a Mirror Spock.

Yep, it's creepy, and an element of this is retained in Yar (she demands Q respect Starfleet for what it is and what it represents, and there's an episode that suggests she may also be attracted to Picard but keeps it in line because he's the captain.)

She's easily one of the best things about the current American Horror Story season.

I'd completely forgotten about Wonder Woman (though of course, so has Warner Brothers) and good catch on Bionic Woman too. I knew there were someone, because if there wasn't Trekkies would be saying Janeway was the first all the time.

That was written by the Jacquemettons, future Mad Men writers. Braga was a showrunner at the time though.

Maybe. But yes, he did use to pay for the site entirely (and had donation drives and other stuff to try and monetize it as bluntly as possible.) I think he's no longer involved in the site at all, but it's been years since I was a regular there.

And even if they are, so what? Vulcan disagrees with Captain's plan, goes along with it anyway: That was basically Spock, T'Pol and Tuvok's job description.

Handlen has reviewed a lot of Futurama for this website, though, he's clearly very familiar with the series.

It's economics but also besides the scenes stuff. Albert Walker was always bluntly forthright that A. He needed this site to make him money and B. He wasn't going to be around forever.

First season's certainly uneven. Let me know when you hit the final seven episodes.

The ending is crazy, too. But what of Lazarus?

It's on Netflix UK/Ireland now.

Or *nerd hat* Infinite Ryvius.

BSg did air concurrently with Enterprise and IIRC Enterprise often got better ratings (but BSG was the cheaper show with no aliens or external shoots and mostly reusing the same sets.)

So Farscape? That would explain the horniness.

He just might sue.

The original D.C. Fontana idea behind the episode is Kirk dating McCoy's daughter, which is a so much more interesting idea.

I disagree. I feel "And the Children Shall Lead…" in season three is the most risibly dull hour.
