Pelia: ...and accept the fact that they are permanently Vulcan jerks? Spock: Vulcans can be jerks Good Lord.
I thought it would be great to have a series with them bickering across the galaxy.
They derive their humor from mocking and insulting people. It's like a SNL skit crossed with Sex in the City. And Spock has three girlfriends. What is this nonsense? I think you're judging TOS on its worst and not its best.
Armin Shimmerman is great on the Delta-Flyers.
I think for a lot of the people who are working it's happy extra-labor day.
I think out of respect to the country we should all pray.
That is completely insane. It's action for action's sake. It's probably Enterprise's greatest crime.
How? With this dialogue? Doug: It has been far to long Una: far, far too long Doug: far, far, far too long Una: this is Doug. He Is a genius artist and a mathematician and a wonderful gardener and - it doesn't matter, why why am I even talking? Hahaha...
Why would you be a sexual worker if you didn't have to be one?
You know that is not true. I was like you once. I thought it was the greatest movie ever. But I could not explain the ending, just as you can't now.
Well critical in the larger sense. Why is this a good episode or a bad one? And the people who actually make it are more critical than the fans. This to me is a contradiction. A fan should be critical. Otherwise why are they a fan? But it seems like all these fan podcasts love everything.
It's possible that Captain Picard wanted to stay on the Borg ship with a representation of one of his old girlfriends.
I don't understand why the fans aren't more critical. When you talk to some of the actors and showrunners, they are more critical of some of the shows than most of the fans.
What was that ending about?
A lot of us find this so terrible because it comes on top of mocking Kirk and the memory of Gene Roddenberry and disrespecting nearly everything about TOS. They already had their Freaky Friday. They already mocked Kirk twice. Cartoons, Muppet shows, zombies, Pike spinning a pirate wheel, Muppets.
TOS entered the chat: VANDERBERG: ... I'm afraid to tell you how much gold and platinum and rare earths we've uncovered. KIRK: I'm delighted to hear that, Chief. Once Mother Horta tells her kids what to look for, you people are going to be embarrassingly rich.
Not to mention Dabbo girls. It's funny because they dress sexy.
Well, I wish it was treating the premise seriously, which is to ask what happens when humans become logical or too logical or like Vulcans? And instead you get an SNL skit. And the idea of making la'an a villain because of her genetic makeup is also kind of racist.
They are an arrogant condescending people with a superiority complex? You don't think that sounds racist?
Now that I cannot argue with!
Well he has videos that can prove some of the claims that I was making. It mocks Vulcans in general, and is racist, and I don't think it's funny to do that. I don't know why other people do either. It's just a terrible thing they've done to Pike throughout the series.
I meant Kirk, not Spock, but no matter. I think the show was largely his character arc. I don't know why they didn't write the TNG version of an episode once he learns they are humans the plot changes. And then it could really be about empathy instead of just them making the words.
It's a field of study. It's called criticism. There's books written on it. Of course we are not being "overly" critical. We are being barely critical. It's just so easy when the writing is so bad, as I tried to argue earlier.
Doug: It has been far to long Una: far, far too long Doug: far, far, far too long Una: this is Doug. He Is a genius artist and a mathematician and a wonderful gardener and - it doesn't matter, why why am I even talking? Hahaha... Star Trek: Sex in the City
We should all be telling the truth all the time. It is the first duty of every Starfleet officer to tell the truth.
I was answering your question why people don't like Strange New Worlds. Now you're questioning my right to criticize this show? Shouldn't everybody be doing that?
Now you're confusing me. Trulene's parents thought the humans were like pets for him, not intelligent beings. Therefore, they could not be Q
I thought this show was a prequel?
Make that 1700s. But I think if you're making 10 episodes a season in the middle of our current situation, and then yes, every episode should be a social message. Or a political one. Or something. Even a character to one that they were trying to get fails.
Trelane's parents didn't know that humans were sentient, and so allowed them to be treated as pets by Trelane. Nor would Trelane be bothered by Korby being good looking, nor could he be a real cue because he thought humanity was in the 1800s and had to have a mirror to focus his power.
The smaller the screen the better. It looks the best on my 24-in ips gaming LG monitor which I got for $20 at a a yard sale.
What was Wedding bells Blues for? They changed the character of Trelane. Why would any fan want that? They changed the characters of everyone almost. Why would any fan want that? Where is the social messaging in hegemony 2 or 1? Or any other episode with the Gorn are attacking the crew?
Have you watched nitpicking nerd?, Molly and the old man? I mean, how much time do you have? It mocks the memory of Gene Roddenberry. It mocks Vulcans as a whole group of people. It mocks Kirk they make him so bored. He doesn't know what day it is. Una putting her lipstick down her blouse?
I don't know why fans like this episode because it makes Spock so bored that he doesn't know what day it is, makes him reckless and indecisive, and be rude with crew and run off and play chess when danger is around. But they do. I don't know why.
nitpickingnerd said it was the worst of the franchise. Was it funny when Una dropped her lipstick down her blouse? Is it funny that a beautiful woman falls in love with a short fat ugly man? Is it funny to blame someone's personality on their DNA?
I think Archer whining to T'Pol And not trusting her is a season-long 'arc'. It also turns out he was foolish and the ship needs to be more heavily armed. And later seasons they get a SWAT team and lots of fighting commences.
Doug: It has been far to long Una: far, far too long Doug: far, far, far too long Una: this is Doug. He Is a genius artist and a mathematician and a wonderful gardener and - it doesn't matter, why why am I even talking? Hahaha... God help us all
Spock: Vulcans can be jerks
Marie (after punching Pike hard): I was mad at you for 2 minutes. One time you can get over it.
Are you ready for the Supreme Court? How do you define 'emergency'? Isn't it true our military uses computers made in China?
That's nothing. Try the fans.
85% of the tariffs from Canada and Mexico don't apply because they're covered under the previous Trump agreement. Or maybe they do.
I'm surprised he didn't suggest Russians as peacekeepers since both China and Russia fought on the same side.
We have to figure this one out.
Yeah, the genetic manipulation made you stronger and smarter. But to be evil would be an act of choice. Picard invited the children from the masterpiece society into the Federation with apparently no qualms. I think you're supposed to think being evil is a choice.
Yeah I think they're saying it's racist because when you say "Vulcans are jerks" it's a racist thing to say. Plus everything else in the episode.
Also, I exaggerating because of the lack of space. But tell me why you think he's racist.
At face value, he improved. Relaxed, happy, confident, patient and recognized the pointlessness of fighting with his sister. I think he needed help. Accusing Starfleet of a crime without evidence is unethical, as is recording people without their knowledge. He seemed nervous, afraid, and immature.
Absolutely. It is never wrong to like something - well, within reason.
That way it doesn't pollute the environment
Worf does not need a vacation.
It was all just a silly joke, an SNL skit. Kind of like when they mocked. Kirk. Why? They could have done a Galileo 7 on all of them. They could have asked the question why they want to be human or why they want to be logical like a Vulcan? Tuvok helped 7, why couldn't Uhura help Beto?
I've been that burned before on this and it's just no reason to think about this.
VANDERBERG: We've already hit huge new pergium deposits. I'm afraid to tell you how much gold and platinum and rare earths we've uncovered. -- TOS, Devil in the Dark.
Well if they had used Spock as the voice of logic in all the episodes, instead of a love interest, then this would make more sense. But also the contractions thing is really data not Spock.
But isn't Measure of a Man, the Inner Light, Tapestry, Yesterday's Enterprise, worth manhunt, subrosa and cost of living?
I think his humor comes from his humility and that the world is against him. And we can all relate to that. But Nitpicking Nerd said this was the worst episode of Star Trek. Jesse Gender and Robert Meyer Burnett also didn't like it.
Good to know.
How is it possible?
I'm up and screaming to the window and wondering if Una is even the same character? I thought they were taking the character back to the cage when she was logical and Spock was not.
It can't happen here
That's good news. First the subway guy gets off, now this.
A hero... sandwich?
Why did Starfleet not tell people the truth anyway? Come think of it.
Your main problem is that Starfleet doesn't lie. And people would not suspect it to lie. So if they had imperfect information they would realize that. But you could use another planet to tell the story that you are describing. And it would be better than what we saw
There's two separate things going on. One is his initial claims. The other is his investigation of the current core episode. But he did not know the facts. His initial claims are not ever refuted.
I think you wrote a better episode than what is actually shown. Beto made a bunch of claims without evidence. Then he witnessed the core episode. He initially may have been skeptical but why would he make up his mind without all the information? So that wouldn't make sense.
Oil is great for whales. The extra global warming will make the sea levels rise and whales will have more places to swim...
*Uhura
Here are the reservations: 1) the crew are a obeying orders they have suspicion are illegal. 2) Starfleet is bringing in a animal that might be tortured 3) Pike does not stop the mission when you hera tells him that she can communicate with the animal.
Yes, that's my only point. That the documentary is irrelevant. The inner core of the episode as you describe it is fine - almost, anyway. It's like Caretaker, Devil in the dark, Encounter at Far point, Equinox.
I think it's one of the great third season episodes. The Klingons are different from the greedy ones in Trouble with Tribbles. These are the proud Klingons of Tng, I think. And the female one reaches an understanding with Kirk.
Actually maybe Beto does have a role because the writers did make the crew step over the line for some reason. But all of his other accusations are unsubstantiated and so unethical. Nonetheless, a Starfleet officer cannot follow a illegal order.
It's contrived. It's like going "Is Starfleet foscist? Stay tuned till after the commercial break". Well they did save the big alien butterfly thing again so I guess they're okay.
Unfortunately, that's impossible. As the guy from trekyards says, we wouldn't be seeing this documentary if that was the case. Also Beto never refutes it. Why would one example of one group of people doing the right thing refute all his claims? Or you could just say it was sloppily written...
Well if they mocked everyone it would have been fine. Mollie and the old man actually found a video of Kurtzman doing another show where he plays himself mocking himself. But in SNW they didn't mock, say, Uhura or Lucile Ball, or the writers or producers.
Well that could have worked if it was one bad admiral doing something bad. That would have been a good episode. But you can't accuse Starfleet of being immoral, unless you're in the mirror universe or something. Mmnm...
Mocking Kirk and TOS is one thing but mocking William Shatner and the memory of Gene Roddenberry is terrible. And then you mock them by saying they have to go get brain cells. And in the next episode you destroy a guy's brain cells. It's as if they're as bad as the episode that they mocked.
I wonder if there's an exemption for a hollow suite versus a hollow deck? DS9 swore off them for like six seasons, I think in part because they didn't like TNG's. At first there they just used them as whore houses that Quark ran. Which is fitting in a way, I think.
The Enterprise Incident, I believe.
This can't mean what I think it means can it? You really can't get mail from these places? Or do you have to just get FedEx or something? Do I have to get an attic or something?
In the last episode, didn't it make you sick when you start to see the video of the documentary, and it appeals to people's emotions with fancy fonts, cuts and lighting, as well as other imagery? And there's no facts or evidence? Wouldn't people of the future want to see evidence in a documentary?
DS9's But It's Only a Paper Moon is an awesome episode. One of the best.
The next one is going to be good.
“If Hitler just wanted to make Germany great and have things run well — OK, fine,” -- Candace Owens, 12/2018
She's trying to be funny, and therefore she is not. She slows the plot down to a crawl. Her stories are second rate romcom. She had one great episode in DS9. Half a life. Majel Barrett proves that she is the fine actor she's always been since The Cage.
Mollie and the old man just did a quick comparison of that. Mesh was written really well. I had forgotten.
How? How could any Star Trek fan go, "I want to hear somebody make unproven accusations implying Starfleet makes war crimes". Isn't he being immoral and unethical? And what does the actions of one group of people have to do with all of his claims?
Many people don't know that Finney not only switched the buttons on Kirk's chair, But created fake video Starfleet officers are saying the most reprehensible things.
Well I would agree there's a panic about it. And that's why Trump won. As to the reality. In a capitalist democracy, every new immigrant represents a risk of losing your political issue, job, degree, part of the environment, or tax money.
I hope Balance of Terror is not on the list.
Subrosa? Manhunt, Cost of Living, Dark Page, Code of Honor? Fistful of Datas? Cost of Living was Lwaxana taking a mud bath with Alexander. Oh and ménage à trois. I mean what was Genesis about anyway? Troi turns into a fish?
At least it wasn't Nemesis

Stock market is up. I mean the Supreme Court will probably rule that Trump can do anything.
But Samsung is competing with Apple to put 3 cameras on their cell phones
Well now you're saying real issue. It's certainly an issue that all parties and people are very concerned about, you would have to admit? And that was my point. As to whether we should reduce immigration or not is perhaps another debate?.
That's why nobody listens to you.
