The other episode which sticks with me is "The Defector". James Sloyan looks like he’s absolutely nauseated by the politics of his planet but at the same time he’s still waving the flag, “ROMULUS NUMBAH ONE, FEDERATION HACK PTOOEY”, like he 'defects' but deep down he’s thinking “our ships are better, our hologram women are hotter, your Federation sucks.”

I've yapped about this episode before I think, but that ending where leaves his suicide note for the future knowing nobody’s gonna read it until the embargo ends is too subtle for post-911 Trek.

Sloyan was the best part of the episodes he was in.

If that had occured, Dr Soong would still (secretly) live. I wonder why he didn't make any more androids in his hideaway. Oh wait he made the one of the wife that divorced him..? I'll have to see that one again. Love Fionnula Flannigan. She's in the club of actors that was on 3+ trek series. And undoubtedly would have been another legendary honey had she appeared on TOS.

Star trek is coming to magic.

I hate everything so, so much.
 
Second part of fan made recreation of the Battle of Wolf 359. First part was made two years ago.

If I existed in that timeline I would totally be like McCoy and Pulaski, "Put me on a shuttle, I'll take my chances with that instead!"

I think there is no coincidence that both of them are doctors. Docs can be quite neurotic about things like this and in some cases, it makes all sense.

It was also no coincidence because Katherine Pulaski was nothing more than Gene Roddenberry overtly trying to make "Bones" McCoy 2.0 (this time with androids!).

Maybe it's just because I have fond memories of the old TNG game from Decipher, but I don't completely hate this idea.

I have nearly complete sets of both decipher games and even some random cards from the fleer TOS game.

And that's especially why I hate this. Trek was explicitly the anti magic. A completely different style of game and everything. This isn't fitting a square peg into a round hole, this is trying to fit an orange into a VHS player.

Reminds me of when UPN tried to cross-promote their WWE show by having a wrestling episode of Voyager with the Rock as a guest star.

Goddamn you just unlocked a memory. I totally forgot about that trash. Wasn't 7 of 9 forced to use her titty-hold in that one?

In other news I recently learned that Gene Roddenberry didn't like Jews, which to me makes him 10x more based than before. This might explain why the TOS was the best series in the franchise.

It seems like as jews went from being performs (Nimoy, Shanter) and started becoming writers and showrunners in the later series they got progressively more lame. We now have a muppet episode and a muscial episode of ST thanks to the most recent jew showrunner. L'Chaim!

Wesley is going to be a Planewalker isn't he

Isn't that what the transdimensional child molester who absconded with him near the end of the series intended to make of him? Is the way to become a Planewalker to get ploughed by some plane traveling dude whose TARDIS is the space version of a windowless white panel van with a FREE CANDY sign on it?

What possible reason would UPN have for giving more seasons to a program that’s blowing what it money it has on Big Show.

I mean, it’s tough to point at this and call it a compelling case for giving the program more money.

Yeah, but I still liked her enough. I'm fine with having someone who's sceptical about Data. It helps humanize Starfleet a bit as they all can't be so easily accepting of an android and trusting in general, which was proven during Measure of a Man (and many other characters who met him by first time still feel some understandable uncomfort about him). Pulaski wasn't bad and she didn't want to disassemble Data, she just saw him as a machine, which is reasonable. To me, this was one of the improvements for season 2.

Speaking of, in Who Watches the Watchers (rewatched it the other day), Beverly did the same memory procedure Pulaski did to the little girl in Pen Pals and she failed, hahaha. Either Pulaski also failed and we never knew and the kid's now locked up in a mental institution or she's a much better doctor than Bev.

Beverly acts like her field is counseling, not medicine.

She's kind of the oatmeal of Trek doctors. Where's Bones' screaming or Bashir's Snoopy adventures or the hologram being a neurotic Jew?

Beverly is just too emotional. She's two or three steps from being a Grey's Anatomy type of doctor.

ETA: she is a good doctor, though. The whole crew of the enterprise are top notch professionals. Pulaski seems to be a better surgeon though.
