It’s been an ongoing plot line that Migleemo is sort of a lemon at counselling.

Dave Foley?

What was revealed about the ship? It always does the same thing.

Some of them, notably the Romulans, were a little stereotypey. I know they’re going for funny, but it’s Star Trek, makes me feel weird.

It won an Emmy.

Subtle updates that don’t impact historical consistency are an acceptable compromise for conservation.

working out their differences

Did you watch the same episode I did? They didn’t work out anything at all. That was what made it so special.

RD honours takedowns, so sometimes content vanishes from them.

Kirk’s Gorn was the captain. Maybe he was old and feeble? Not suited for a fight, still pretty strong but no longer fast and agile. The Metrons chose the captains, not the best fighters.

We all must have done some pretty amazing stuff in our past lives, to deserve this season we are getting.

Maybe I’m both?

I still like Aqua. I know.

TNG had the strong implication that holodeck technology was pretty new, in the first season, at least at that level of sophistication. The early holodeck appearances are practically gushing about how realistic and “real” they feel, in a way they really wouldn’t be doing if they’d had that sophisticated stuff all their lives. If it was really only around at this level for a few years, it’s understandable that they wouldn’t be prepared for all the implications right away. Look how long it took for us to adjust to the printing press, and we’re struggling with the internet right now.

I want a side port.

No pro. :( I hate iap unlocks, Google has messed with them before with this dev.

So, like, this only works when you watch videos on your phone? Who wants immersive audio on a six inch screen?

There was also a Klingon scientist in the Enterprise 2 parter about how the Klingons got smooth heads. He even talked about what it was like being a scientist in a society of warriors.

I know you meant the original. I just feel that, if that was the way people felt about originals after re-makes are made, we wouldn’t have so many re-makes. I think people feel more like, if they bothered to do a re-make, the original must be pretty good.

The whole deal with that is that they did it, in TOS, without any sort of explanation. We just had that dude, who McCoy discovered was really a Klingon, even though he looked just like a human. That whole thing is just adding an explanation for something that was long-since already there.

Also, you sound like you’re talking about the Orions. Do Klingons even have scientists? Somebody has to build the ships!
