Did they renew One Tree Hill again?

Exactly. His pain was great enough to affect his judgement. At the end, he is absolutely mortified at what he did. If we didn't see both (the depths of his loneliness, his contrition at the close), I wouldn't have liked this episode anywhere as much.

It is a huge change from her zombie-looking introvert state to when she flashes that smile at Bashir.

Now I'm thinking about cop shows, where diplomats are usually abusing diplomatic privilege in order to steal artwork or commit crimes in general.

I missed the part where Archer teaches them how to mind meld. (Ugh…)

Having Spock and Sarek, two exceptional beings, might be skewing our perception of Vulcans. If the few we meet would make good diplomats, that might be because they were specially selected for the diplomatic corps, rather than it being a general Vulcan trait.

Nog might have gotten on base every time, due to that strike zone. (Somehow he got to third.)

Right. He was good enough to consider being a professional tennis player, but he wouldn't have been the best tennis player.

It's those damn Cardassian Voles again.

But is it really ill treatment to have Vulcans as arrogant? They are stronger, faster, maybe smarter (not all Vulcans should be as smart as Spock!). And in their society they find emotion contemptible, while in Star Fleet they see humans wallow in it like pigs in mud. Of course most of them are going to have an…

So that means the version I'm reading is the literal truth which I should follow exactly, right?

I thought "LeBeouf-ing" would be:
"What's so tough about adapting the novel? Labeouf has already written Don Quixote."

Much like Star Trek, I think syndication helped this series get a larger audience.

We see Kolchak toss his trademark hat at the hat rack, and he doesn't care when it misses and lands on the ground.

Agreed about the McGavin-Oakland chemisty.

The zipper on the swamp monster was bad, but that sewer scene with the bogey man was some scary stuff. Right up there with the other episode opener with the moving mannequins.

They should make her the spokesperson for the "Dhaselin" petroleum jelly.

My bad. I should have been thinking DS9.

You are talking about Tracy Scoggins (playing Gilora Rejal).

Yeah, but the actress Rosalyn Landor was hot enough that I'm willing to put up with the rest of Brenna Odell's group. (Appears that Riker felt the same way.)
