And that was completely out of left-field too. McCoy never complained about her work and it was never once mentioned that she liked eating at the Y. Just "you're fired" and "but I'm a dyke!"
Didn’t Elizabeth Röhm pick her own last line? And she went with the “I’m gay” one.

Southerlyn was OK, but once Carmichael left it was all downhill.
 
He'd probably be like Klingon Jordan Peterson where he tells young men to work out and fight and emulate the archtypical Kahless whenever possible.

"Wash your penises."
"Clean your room, because that brings glory to your house, and when glory is brought to your house, glory is brought to the empire!"

Him and his brother, Klingon chef trying to live.together on DS9...

OK I'm getting sold on this series. Klingon Frasier...

The Klingon lawyer is a guest star in a few episodes, it would be perfect.
 
The Klingon chef from DS9 deserves his own show. That guy was awesome.

Such a good idea that I came up with a short TV intro (with a little help from chatGPT for the rhyme scheme as I can't come up with rhymes to save my life)

"In a kitchen of chaos and a courtroom of fire,
A chef with a bat’leth and a lawyer for hire—

He cooks the gagh, he wins the fights,
Together they survive their Klingon nights!

They shout, they feast, they settle beefs—
Welcome to “Bloodwine & Briefs!”"
 
And somehow they made her empathic abilities completely useless. Klingon ship captain is screaming over the coms while shooting photon torpedoes. "I sense anger." Yeah no shit.
It's the same problem as with Data: how do you write a character that has abilities humans don't have? A writer can only write about what he knows, so he can't really write intelligently how awesome it actually is to have someone aboard who can find cloaked ships by simply feeling out for the emotions of that ship's crew. In that way the "I sense anger"-thing when the Big E's fucked in the arse by an old Klingon BoP is the best they could do.
 
It's funny how in-her-prime Jeri Ryan would have no chance whatsoever to get as a character into a current show like this, and especially not in the clothes she wore. Even in Picard they just *had* to make her gay to subvert all the expectations and fulfill the prophecy.
I felt awful for Chakotay.

This Vulcan is straight gay.
List of female Star Trek characters I find attractive:
  • Any female Vulcan
  • Any female Romulan
  • Any female Cardassian
  • Any hypothetical female Hirogen

This character already exists, and he's named "Worf". What you're describing is just him if he stayed with that traditionalist group that tried to get Risa shut down in that one DS9 episode.

Did Chakotay even get mentioned in Picard? They memory-holed that man.

Nah dude he died offscreen of, like, “Star Trek disease.” Just some vague shit. “He, died of… reasons.”

Beltran did not give a single shit. That man acted every scene like he was on his break from a different job. Honestly he had more sexual tension with Tom Paris than he ever had with Seven.

Any female Romulan
That one cute Romulan girl from the DS9 prison-asteroid episode. She gets the best line too: Romulans are so paranoid! :story:

Forgive me if this seems clueless (I have never watched much of STNG), but why did they make Worf wear that smushed cow patty on his forehead?
All klingons after TOS look like that.

How disrespectful!


I’ve watched a lot of Star Trek, I usually ignore that stuff. But I can never look at Seven of Nine the same after my mom saw VOY and was like, “She looks like she’s got chewing gum stuck to her eye.”

Was it ever explained as to why the Enterprise’s captain had a completely French name whilst speaking with an English accent and not being able to speak a lick of French?

So like how McCoy grumbles about Spock's Vulcan logic?
Yes, but more-so the comments about Spock’s pointy ears.

Star Trek just picks captains like they’re flipping coins. They wanted Jeffrey Hunter at first. And then he was like “nah, movies,” and died young anyway. Game over.

TNG auditioned everyone on Earth. Yaphet Kotto was a serious option. I don’t even remember why they picked a French captain. But I do know Patrick Stewart was dead last on Gene's list. They kept sneaking him into auditions. And Gene's memos were like, “I told you no!” But he was basically a junkie vegetable at that point, so… whatever. DS9, same shit. Charles Rocket read for it. (Can you imagine?)

The Janeway casting process was a total shitshow. They eventually landed on Genevieve but she pushed back way too hard. She had a bit of an existential crisis, like, “I’m doing Star Trek?"

So we ended up with Kate, she was already a TV vet and they cast her at the last second, so she couldn’t really change anything.
