I wanted to know Janice Rand. In a biblical sense.

So if they are going to explain why the Klingons look as they do, are they also going to explain why the bridge looks so radically different from TOS, and why there are lens flares everywhere?

Love on a Dessert Planet is more fun, and also messy.

Deep cut!

Good point. I either want a world that is completely explained, or one that leaves things assumed.

Was anyone else squicked out at how often DS9 showed Quark being masturbated? Seriously.

What's all this consarned nonsense with ridges and the like? The only real Klingons were from TOS! Now you kids get off my lawn!

It has something to do with Catholics and Protestants fighting.

At each step, they seem to be making the wrong choices.

I think that tells you a lot about the demographics of Ace Hardware shoppers (and probably hardware store shoppers in general).

Perhaps not erotic, but I did find it weird — I wonder what material that was.

But only if pronounced with two exaggerated syllables "skweer-ill". Because "skwurl", like we said in Texas, isn't all that funny (at least to me).

I've never read any of Cline's stuff, but I do like his spoken word pieces. What's strange to me, however, is that while they reference nerdy stuff, they definitely come off as ironic and self-deprecating, which does not sound at all like the tone of RP1.

I always took that plea as ironic, and certainly done in character. (As another datapoint, he does a long rant about how awesome the show Airwolf is, while admitting in interviews he never really saw the series.)

I'm completely the reverse. I loved B5 when it was on-air originally, but going back I have found it practically unwatchable. BSG, to me, is a vastly superior show.
