I, for one, shall celebrate by drawing the line HEEEEAH!

Yeah, the Dyson Sphere ruled, because they at least were referencing the real world. There is such a concept, though of course they garble it quite a bit. http://en.wikipedia.org/wik…

Man, there are NEVER enough bodies lying around on this show.

@Murray, Deep Thought — yeah, absolutely. I'd shake Wheaton's hand. He was no actor, really, and he was given SHIT material. But he handled his own infamy with such grace, and has turned into such a stand-up Nerd's Nerd, that you've got to give him credit.

@Tilden — yeah, totally I'd think you would, especially because it comes up every week, here, because we're all just THAT TRAUMATIZED by it. "Sub Rosa," season 7. Fear it. It's coming.

Yeah, Forbes really makes that fairly lame storyline pop. It's impressive. And I would have been all set to agree with the stuff about how military hierarchy just makes wacky stuff like this happen, but knowledgeable folks above are arguing that it doesn't actually work like that, and is all bullshit, etc. We…

Y'know, I'm with Riddle and Birthin' on this one. It's a total cliche. But it does play reasonably funny; I don't have a huge problem with it. By this point, Dorn is really coming into his own.

@tragically — oh, absolutely. And that's the only watchable Troi episode.

Don't…think about…Kira's body…with Quark's head…TOO LATE!!!

"That first scene looks something the commentors around here would write as a joke. "

Okay, I love me some Drunk Frakes, (though I have yet to come up with any good material), but, people, let's NOT forget that this meme began with drunk RIKER. That's way funnier.

Oh, absolutely. Captain Picard Day was freakin' gold. A way lighter comic touch than this adorable show could usually manage. I'd never seen that episode until a couple months ago, despite being a big teenage dork fan back in '89, or whatever, and I got a huge kick out of it. Season 7 wasn't all bad.

I hate the fuckin' Eagles, man.

Hell, yes. I admit, I couldn't figure out how the changeling set Eddington up during the blood-screening scene. But apparently he/it just oozed some of his own goo into the vial, instead of Eddington's blood. (God, that sounds filthy.)

"…because I don't like you."

Yes! "The Visitor," ftw!

…and as far as O'Brien's Space Irishness, it never really even seems relevant, does it? Which makes sense in the post-ethnic Trek world, I guess. The only thing that ever really struck me wrong was he and Bashir drunkenly singing "Jerusalem," as English a song as you can get. You'd think it would provoke a fistfight,…

"I remember seeing many years ago a humorous article saying that the Ferengei were the Jewish stereotypes of the Star Trek universe…"

People, people. BOTH those episodes suck! Why are we fighting? But I give "Skin of Evil" the edge, because, god help me, I thought it was GREAT when I was fourteen. Seriously. That one and "Datalore" were my favorite S1 episodes. I deal with the shame of that every day.

Uh, the Breen were totally Space Eskimos. Right?
