My favorite story is, during a meeting, Roddenberry started describing the sexual habits of the Ferengi for minutes on end.

One, TNG is still a family show. Two, who wants to think that much about Ferengi sex in the first place?? 

I honestly just think Gervais cannot help himself. He wants to belong so bad. He wants to be liked with every fiber of his being. But he also resents his own neediness and the objects of that neediness (Hollywood, celebs, etc.). I think Extras is almost more instructive than The Office. Extras put on display Gervais’…

Okay first off this isn't the end of the world.  Its minor changes its not like the kids in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory aren't be tortured.  Its not 1984 or a nazi book burnings shut up.  Not like the Twitter reactionaries were buying his books anyway.  Second, Dahl was... quite something.  Oh you think Seuess…

Good point. If Alien came out now I’m sure the right would deride it as more “woke nonsense” because the only survivor is a strong woman.

So Numan is the Oldman, and Oldman is the numan?

And Henny Youngman! 

McCartneyism was no picnic either. All those beans and not a gas pill in sight.

Being followed to the bathroom every time for a few years really wears on you

Christ, you know that wasn't easy. 

And yet it’s still more popular than Murdoch’s attempt to corner the same sad market.

Just gonna leave this here

I tend to agree that the show grew past what it promised in the beginning. A story in-Universe, still separate from the main action. At this point, we’ve connected 3 different SW properties to it. This is what the fans want, apparently.

I partially agree with you. I’m no SW fanboy, which is why I enjoyed this show. I fear that it’s now going to get mired in the convoluted quagmire that is SW mythology.

They also established that Bajor had issues with power generation. In the first season Bajor was so desperate, they couldn’t power hospitals and heat their homes in the winter.

I was going to write a comment giving my opinion, but then I read your comment and thought “well, he already wrote my opinion.” :)

I guess you’ll have to watch it yourself to decide. I think the show is frustratingly bad, with most episodes rating as thoroughly mediocre and a few being outright terrible. The problem with posing your question here, of course, is that you’re mostly talking to fans of the show. Here’s the good, bad, and ugly, in my…

Agreed. Add to that the fact that there is a 30 year jump after Babylon’s Ashes (Book 6) and you have the ability to end the series on good note. It’s also possible in a few years they could revisit the show if someone’s up for producing new seasons.

Yeah, the Marvel US comic was way better than the TV show. The TV show was just a series of daily commericials anyway.

Also Marvel UK’s G1 comics also had a character that’s still canon in Marvel continuity: Death’s Head
