Imagine his surprise when Worf actually wins all the fights. Including that one episode where he defeats a whole army of Jem'Hadar in hand to hand combat all by himself.
The "Data saved a kid and the kid pretends to be an android" is the only episode of TNG that I skipped, because it came immediately after the Alexander episode and I was bored with the "character is unexpectedly a parent" trope.
It takes a lot to make a stew! A pinch of salt and laughter too A scoop of kids to add the spice, a dash of love to make it nice, and you got TOO MANY COOKS
I remember a tweet about how Darmok was basically a society where they communicated in text based memes and everyone was replying with memes in that context. “Philip J Fry, his fist full of money”
Surprised people in their 30s didn't remember Ashley Judd. She was pretty big back in the late-90s/early 2000s. Edit: Just got to the hologram deep fakes part...I'm sure that it will never come up again and involve any Romulans at all...now I'm just off to the tailor's for some new pants.
Someone's got to use their gowron impressions for a thumbnail. In fact, when they photograph the yogs for their proper thumbnails, one prompt should definitely be just "gowron"
The first three seasons of DS9, while not as good as the later seasons, are still a hell of a lot better than TNG's first two seasons. Early DS9 is still mostly above average. And he absolutely should watch it, DS9 is the best Trek series imo.
First 3 seasons of DS9 are far easier to get through than the first 2 seasons of TNG, or the first 2 seasons of Voyager. Particularly with episodes like Duet, the introduction of the Nagus and Kai Wynn, the development of O’Brien and Bashir’s friendship. They actually set up a lot of stuff that’s important contextually, and at its worst, it’s only distictly average. Unlike TNG’s first two seasons, which are perfectly skippable (with one or two good episodes here and there) and Voyager’s first two seasons which are BORING, both being also actively bad rather than just kinda ‘meh’.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought the Romulan plan was completely idiotic, I think it’s established that Vulcan has billions of people on it, as well as is in the federation. At worst, the 2000 romulans are going to be a minor nuisance if they arn’t just nuked from orbit when they land. On top of that, the chances that no body thinks “huh, why are three ships of the people we’ve been in a Cold War with for centuries coming into our territory unescorted?” are so remote. Like what did they think would happen?
If they were disguised as diplomats, I assume they were planning on meeting important leaders at the capitol or some other important place. In which case, 2000 soldiers would be enough to hold down a complex or small city and keep hostages for long enough to wreak chaos, and possibly bring in reinforcements.
