Re: VOY - Retrospect
I grew up during the satanic panic and it came dangerously close to me and my family at one point, so I appreciate what they were trying to do. But in the end it fell short. One of the major flaws for me is, why would the doctor try to use a form of "therapy" that had been disproven hundreds of year...

Re: Doctor Who: Robots of Death
One of the things that I love about this story (and often gets overlooked) is the world building. Even though the "humans" are miners they were opulent clothing, lounge around on comfy chairs and of course ware the silliest of hats. Between that and a few bits of dialogue, we really get a feeling th...

Re: Will Chuck mention the inconsistency with Moriarty?
Moriarty is a super genius, given enough time it seems like there would be a high probability that he would eventually figure out that his world is a simulation. It would just take one bug in the code (they travel past a star that doesn't give of heat, vanilla ice cream tastes like chocolate, people...

Re: Will Chuck mention the inconsistency with Moriarty?
Not much to say. The idea of a Moriartybot never occurred to me, and it's a really cool idea. As far as the original script went, I never saw a problem with the paper taken out of the holodeck and not de-rezzing. In "Encounter at Farpoint" Data noted that a lot of what was in the holodeck was real,...

Re: DIS: Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum
The thing that bugs me about this episode: At the end of the episode it revealed that Saru wasn't mind controlled but that he did every thing of his own free will. That's an interesting plot twist, but...shouldn't he be in the brig? I mean, just off the top of my head, we've got assault of fellow of...

Re: TNG - Marina Sirtis talks about the costume design
There's definitely a lot they could have done to make Troi a lot more functional as a character than she was, but I do kind of feel like it was a losing endeavor to begin with having a psychic counselor be a main character. Probably should have either given the character some additional purpose or ...

Re: Voyager: 11:59
I have mixed feelings about this episode. The story is interesting and could have been fleshed-out in to an all right indie film, and it was nice to see Kate Mulgrew do some acting with out the limitations of Janeway. On the other hand, it did feel like the writers were just bored with their own sho...

Everyone knows that shore-leave episodes only work on trek if you have a giant white rabbit or two bald guys fighting in the mud.
