Well, Voyager had the one with the Evil Voyager museum exhibit. That one was pretty decent, for Voyager (although the episode has some unfortunate implications to the effect that healing of racial/ethnic divisions can't start until oppressed people realize they're also at fault, which I'm pretty sure wasn't the

Oh, yeah, "Through the Looking Glass" and "Shattered Mirror" aren't bad or anything like that! They just don't have the same amount of depth as the first one. Which isn't an unforgivable sin (unlike, say, "The Emperor's New Cloak").

Well, it is a pretty awesome clock!

(SPOILERS)

Didn't we also see another Enterprise-D doctor in "Violations"? *checks Memory Alpha* …yeah, apparently his name is Dr. Martin.

My sister is an Anglo-Saxonist and I'm a Shakespearean with a secondary specialty in the later Middle Ages — next time she visits, I'll be sure to start an argument so I can tape it for you!

My Homer is not a Communist! He may be a liar, a pig, an idiot, a Communist, but he is not a porn star!

So first of all, the ending of this post proves that it's impossible to read the words "Oh my" in a Trek discussion without hearing them in George Takei's voice, even if the reference is to something entirely different.

Doesn't this actually come up (SPOILERY GOODNESS) once he finds his people, and then again in exactly the episode @avclub-13d7df3c17502af69aafccc758195f96:disqus mentions?

And, unlike most Ferengi episodes, it has a major role for Garak. Which is always a major plus.

I'm really surprised that so many people can look at Shakaar without thinking of "Sub Rosa." You are all better at guest-star-related memory wipes than I am.

It's Drunk Mornington Crescent in Space!

I seem to recall that female Ferengi actually do wear earring/necklace combos. Or at least Moogie does. As does [UNPLEASANT SPOILER] cross-dressed Quark.

I'm Brian! And so's my wife!

Hyperian beetle snuff may be fun for you and me, but it's NO FUN FOR THE BEETLES!

There is actually a deleted scene from the Eleventh Doctor's first season where he tells Amy essentially the same thing that Q tells Vash at the end of this episode — that he travels with human companions because seeing through their eyes makes everything seem new and wonderful again. It's a nifty little scene, and I

Everyone in Ops: Here we go again!

I'm meeting you halfway, you hippies!

I just html-failed all over this comment in trying to quote some relevant Wordsworth! I am pretentious and technologically incompetent, but I agree with you.

IIRC Scott MacDonald was one of their go-to guys for honorable reptilians — I think he also played a reasonably sympathetic Jem'Hadar later on, didn't he?
