Re: DS9: Prodigal Daughter

The actual best thing to do with Ezri would have been to have her show up to bring Sisko out of his funk, give all the characters and the audience a chance to say goodbye to Jadzia... and then left. She was never going to be able to endear herself in one season to replace the character that had been...

Re: VOY: Lineage

The episode where Picard and Data were made to look like Romulans, so they could infiltrate the Romulan homeworld in search of Spock comes immediately to mind. And the time Troi was made into a Romulan. And the time Riker was infiltrating that one planet and then captured (though that was just a sm...

Re: The Daring Do Arc

I always foudn the reveal weird since DD was obviously an expy for Rainbow Dash in the first outing, down to the hair colors just being a desaturated rainbow. Making her real was... a choice. I would have also named her Compass Rose rather than a bad pun of a problematic author who has nothing to do...

Re: Babylon 5: The Long Night

I don't know if the Byron arc would have fared any better. Claudia Christian isn't that good of an actor in my opinion. The way she did her lines always felt hammy to me. It would have been better sheerly on the merit of focusing on two of the leads, rather than just the one. It was like 10 episode...

Re: Babylon 5: The Long Night

I do wonder what the series would have been like if JMS had felt certain there would be a fifth season, and thus didn't compress it into the fourth (and then had to improvise a fifth season for TNT). He's talked about this at length. Largely, it would have been the same. The war with the Shadows st...

Re: VOY - Natural Law

Did he say that this was the last voyager episode that he hadn't covered? The latest episode in the series, given that its riiiight before the end. There's still 6 more. Season 4 S4E03 - Day of Honor S4E15 - Hunters Season 5 S5E07 - Infinite Regress S5E13 - Gravity Season 7 S7E12 - Lineage S7E14 - ...

Re: Beast Wars: Proving Grounds

https://www.sfdebris.com/videos/animation/beastwars3e07.php It's true that one could skip over this episode and not really miss out on much, which is ironic when taking into account SFDebris' remark on how it seems no one wants "Feral Scream" reviewed (and which is actually somewhat important despi...

Re: Cupid's Errant Arrow

That's because they had a set for the mess hall and that's where the writers knew to put Neelix. If early in the first season they HADN'T made a mess hall set, everyone would just use the replicators. But early on the actually tried to push the "we have to cut corners to survive" thing until they ig...

Re: VOY: Repentance

There actually IS a reason they sterilize the needle prior to a lethal injection. Every once in a while, somemone gets a stay of execution. Last minute call from the governor or the real killer is found or something. Its not just fiction, these things DO happen. If a prisoner that was scheduled to d...

Re: Beast Wars: Cutting Edge

Sadly, when Chuck opened this series up for requests a few years back and I commissioned a ton of episodes, prioritizing the multipart season enders and openers, I did not chip in the extra 50$ to get Feral Scream since I was already pitching in for 10 episodes at the time and I prioritized. Other p...
