I agree with Ameriganastan. It's pointless. I'm done debating this.

I was watching "The Drumhead" earlier, and I finally noticed how low 11,000 sounds for how many ships were destroyed at Wolf 359. I mean, 39 ships destroyed but only 11,000 dead?

The Galaxy class only carries around a thousand and that’s far above norm.

Plus not all of the ships destroyed went down with all hands (we know Sisko and a number of his crewmates survived for instance).

Couldn't they cut back on crew with automation ?

Pretty sure that was the b-plot of "Redemption" when Data was in charge.

Escape pods are a wonderful thing. Until they shoot the escape pods down.

So apparently Star Trek Online managed to get most of the DS9 cast in for their next expansion: https://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star- ... l/10875854

The game's been kind of hit-or-miss over the years, but this definitely seems like a step in the right direction.

Want me to say it out loud? Fine. Their acting, compared to today is shit...

Are you kidding me? Patrick Stewart and Avery Brooks leading the casts and you call it shit? And you think Enterprise had “good” acting with Scott Bakula? Even Kate Mulgrew acts circles around Quantum Dweeb.

I’ll admit the first season or 2 for every series is a bit shite, but ffs this was perhaps the dumbest thing you could have said.

HEY! Scott Bakula is a very fine actor, and the show did a good job considering the circumstances!

Fuck that game is not that great.

Now I have to download it.

Voyager.
S6:E26 "Unimatrix Zero"
Ensign Paris reports to the bridge to find a box on his chair, containing a black pip. He's reinstated to the rank of lieutenant.
Kim: "I didn't notice a little box on my chair"

The best moment in the series, prove me wrong.

I give Seven a lot of guff for being a ratings stunt in a catsuit, but she nails The Doctor's mannerisms and such.

Jeri Ryan is a delight, even if her character was, as you say, a ratings stunt in a catsuit.

You win this round.

Currently doing a rewatch of DS9, because it has been a while.
Somehow, despite having some of the worst acting and some of the most annoying characters in the ST universe, still a favourite.

Well shit. Looks like it's time for my annual "Let's play for a month" again.

They overcompensated for the ratings stunt in a suit thing so hard, they actually made her one of the most fleshed out characters on the show in general.

Which, all in all, isn't a bad problem to have.

Jeri Ryan is a very good actress, it's a shame she never became more widely known.

Also, she's one of the reasons Obama became President. Look up her first husband, it's quite a fun story.

It's the thrilling sequel to "How much tea does Picard drink?" How much coffee does Janeway drink?

Spoiler: it's a lot. Fits the character, really.

I have finally gotten around to watching Enterprise. I liked the first episode, though it has yet to impress me the way the other series have.

[The Rich Port]

For whatever reason, I've been drinking a lot of Earl Grey tea lately.

I think I'm also starting to bald...

Make it so, Number 1. Engage. Speed up to Warp 8.
