Damn those indolent continentals.

Snipes was probably interested because in a society without space-money, you don't have to play space-taxes.
The Second Directive is "No smoking."
Do they not have the Internet in Spain? Whatever. He's dead to me.
"Fiction."
I didn't watch much of the show, but I sort of dug the Enterprise uniforms. They seemed like a good compromise between Star Trek's traditional goofy pajama look and something that would actually be functional for space exploration.
…and then the show continues, but it follows the domestic adventures of the Picards.
For sure. It's not that I think a womanizer can't have other interests — it's his transformation into somebody who's that reserved and easily embarrassed when it comes to sex that I'm skeptical about.
You'd think Picard's main objection would have been that he was subordinate to Troi.
No, see, the reason why Picard is willing to take bold chances as an older man is that heavy metals in the artificial heart have leeched into his brain and caused mild derangement that's nearly indistinguishable from bravery.
Would anybody object if Zack took another breather and skipped right over Birthright? It's one of those episodes — and a two-parter no less! — that's so boring that you forget what's going on even as you're watching it.

Tapestry is great…
…but I never really believed that Picard could ever have been a brash, boozy womanizer, given how uptight and proper he is as the Picard we know. Remember how flustered he got on Risa? I don't remember exactly, but I think he's gotten laid only once since the show began five years previous. People…
What's more ridiculous: Space chess or space pool?
That was a weird time (I live in Chicago). They eventually decided to go with the craziest black guy in North America, Alan Keyes, who (I think) had never even lived in Illinois. Obama facial expression during the rest of the campaign was basically, "Can you believe this crazy bullshit?"
Time is the fire in which we burn, no matter how masturbation-worthy we may be.
I liked Sirtis' performance, but I thought she could have gone a little more subtly sinister on some of the line readings instead of shouting. Though in her defense, Troi would certainly be freaked the hell out in that situation. Eh, I don't know.
What if your greatest fear is failing the Starfleet face-your-greatest-fear test? Then you've got a recursive nightmare that probably ends with you ordering yourself to your own death.
Wait, that was a Horta. Dammit.
