Oh wow, I'm just about to watch 'Projections' because I like to watch Voyager on Netflix in the background while doing other things. So rolling coins and 'Projections' here I come. I'll let you know what I think either in a bit or like 5 years when Zack's reviews get there. If it's later, expect the worst.

Maybe it's time we do a fanwank to make ourselves feel better about Picard tossing behind a personally treasured, culturally important ancient civilization's artifact. Maybe Picard, realizing just how valuable it was, donated the original to a museum and had a replica made. It explains why he shows such disdain for…

This is one case where DS9 maybe didn't do it better. We never really get much analysis into the Romulans there, even though one of their best episodes feature them. Even on DS9 we get this comment about them. "Aah, the Romulans. So predictably treacherous." That's all anyone in two quadrants thinks about those guys.…

@Billy As much as I do like this episode and the moral behind it I'm always really bugged by Picard's last conversation with the Romulan. The Romulan defies our expectations by reaching out to Picard and trying to make a connection based on this mind boggling experience with an eloquent speech about how alike they…

"Woman! Can't you see the danger we're in!"

So the bald guy cuts hair while the blind guy flies the ship! The future is craaaa-zy!

Yeah, I always lose it for the King Homer joke. "Notice anything different about me? "New haircut?" "Look closer!" "Oh, you're 100 feet high and made out of gold." "AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" It's the laugh that gets me. Swartzwelder, you really did it that time.

So that's how it happened…

That's funny. I was flipping channels and saw some Romulans and thought "Huh, it's really dark on that ship. What's going…wait, bald Tom Hardy? This is Ceti Alpha V!" I quickly changed channels.

It's funny how only Worf gets to be a racist in these shows. Though his dating profile would suggest otherwise…

I wish there was some director's cut of Generations where they put Vulcan ears on Tim Russ there and call him Tuvok. Oh well, missed opportunities. I'm sure he's just glad he got steady work after having missed out on being Geordi.

Morn!
While I know everyone considers these episodes the one where Word throws a spear through a hoop I got a little kick out of the world building Zack mentioned in the review. We usually only get to see this in pilots but it was great seing Picard and Beverly on DS9 talking about what it had to offer that the…

We've also noted that the minerals Hank is ordering are like Sapphires and we thought it was just thematic that they're blue like Walt's product. Could there be something less thematic about it and they use the minerals as a means of distribution? Will Hank Break Bad and come up with a whole new system to supply? If…

Why didn't they just make a holographic heart? Oh yeah, because Voyager's lame, that right.

Things aren't going as well this year as they were last year so watching this episode now, even remembering the moral going in, was a nice bit of encouragement. Now to just get stabbed in the heart! Metaphorically…

Not a bad episode to take a breather on. Hope you feel better soon Zack!

Do you wanna…hit me Johnny?

Do you wanna…hit me Johnny?

Yeah, if my last name was that cool I'd definitely use it as a euphemism for fucking.
