… I like Spock's Brain. It's just so goofy.

Yay, I've received my first ever downvote!

Man, fuck the kids today!

Agreed. Honestly, Homers Enemy is the most disturbing episode of the Simpsons I've seen. Homer is a complete fucking monster in the episode, and the episode never gives any indication that the production staff realise this.

The Frank Grimes episode makes me intensely uncomfortable. I can't help but place myself in Grimes' position. That the episode sees fit to drive him to suicide and then callously continue to mock him after death, just… ugh.

Yeah, it makes a lot of sense to demarcate seasons 7 and 8 (and 9 if we're being exceedingly generous, which I'm not inclined to be) as a "silver age" separate from the "golden age". I still haven't made up my mind on when the golden age begins, but it definitely ends with WSMB Pt1.

As far as Davies vs. Moffat goes, they both show a complete lack of interest in worldbuilding and even basic internal consistency. Moffat now bothers me more than Davies though. Davies at least seemed to be genuine about what he was doing, in an emotional sense at least. Moffat's writing just comes off as smugly…

Sigh, yeah I forgot about that line. If they'd left Alpha Centauri out it would've been okay as the others are all fictional so we don't know in absolute terms how close to Earth they're supposed to be.

I think having Vulcan be invaded would've stretched the plausibility of the Federation lasting much longer in the war. Vulcan has always been implied to be relatively close to Earth. Also, and I'm only guessing here, it's probably second only to Earth in political and administrative terms.

I like to think that at this point in the series Garak has a half-dozen plans for harming the Dominion ready to go at a moments notice. He just had to wait for someone with far greater resources at his disposal than he currently has (Sisko in this case) to implement them. In particular he probably wouldn't have been…

What makes it even better is that I can easily believe that the Dominion would have left the Romulans alone, even after dismantling the Federation and the Klingon Empire. We've seen species in the Gamma Quadrant that the Dominion generally leaves alone as long as they toe the line (the Karemma). While I think that the…

I dunno, I don't feel TSCC is particularly underrated. Some good ideas that were sometimes implemented well, some excellent scenes and episodes, but also some quite stupid ideas and, most damningly, a whole lot of tedium.

There's an (in universe) difference between the Daleks flying and R2D2 flying. With R2D2, it really does feel like a retcon as it shows a capability not at all hinted at previously and which doesn't really fit in with the original design. With the Daleks there's no retcon. The old Daleks really couldn't fly, it's a…

I've not seen it so I'll not comment on it's quality, but original? Wasn't it very strongly influenced by Twin Peaks?

There are so many Twin Peaks to Seinfeld connections that it's actually kind of eerie.

Nah, I disagree (and agree with ElDan). I think it's simply that Elaine trying to express sympathy without actually feeling sympathy, and so has to think for a moment to find the right phrasing, probably by remembering times when she's seen other people express sympathy.

There's a moment in the episode that really helps to sell the "tiny ship" scenario to me. It's when they're using the runabout to press the door panel. Either O'Brian or Dax says something like "don't hit it too hard or you'll smash the panel". It's the acknowledgement that even though they're now in a tiny ship, it's…

The soundtrack for this movie is excellent and at times far more moody and mysterious than the plot merits.
