Re: DS9 S6: Far Beyond the Stars

Stupid and heavy-handed episode. If you legitimately think that this maudlin crap was profound then you must be a boomer with dementia.

Re: DS9 S5: The Begotten

What is WRONG with the people in these discussions? Why do people just drop these massive spoilers with no warning? FFS. I like to take a look and see some intelligent discussion after watching an episode, but it's not possible because some people just casually drop nuclear landmines of a spoiler. So infuriating.

Re: TOS S2: Assignment: Earth

Truly horrendous episode. 0 stars.

Re: TOS S2: The Deadly Years

And if you want my opinion on what a good, smart episode is: "A Taste of Armageddon". Almost flawless, with a very original premise, and I never found myself saying "this character's action is stupid and makes no sense" and "this is ridiculous" like in so many bad TOS episodes.

Re: TOS S2: The Deadly Years

Incredibly stupid episode. It feels like the only people who think this deserves more than 1.5 stars are old codgers that focused too heavily on the "social commentary about oldness" nonsense, which is hilarious and not at all subtle, because of all the stereotypes listed by Capitalist Pig above. Basically everything that happened in this episode was dumb.
Chekov didn't get old and he was scared for 2 seconds at the start of the episode and they therefore concluded that the cure to the magic oldness radiation is adrenaline. Uh huh.
1 star, but only for Kirk storming onto the bridge and taking command awesome-ly.

Re: TOS S2: Wolf in the Fold

Okay, that made me laugh.

Re: TOS S2: Wolf in the Fold

Oh, and this episode was incredibly stupid. D+.

Re: TOS S2: Wolf in the Fold

I'll do you people one better: "Sexism" doesn't exist, and all the views that you would consider "sexist" are in fact correct generalizations about women.

Re: DS9 S6: In the Pale Moonlight

fOUR STARS? MAN FUCK YOU

Re: DS9 S4: Crossfire

The turbolift free falls for such a long time, how high is DS9?

Re: DSC S4: All Is Possible

"If you meet a transwoman and she looks perfect. So in that situation you find her sexually appealing. Does that mean that you are gay?'"

Re: DS9 S4: The Visitor

Interesting way of telling a story but not as good as everyone says.

Over all score: 7/10

Re: DS9 S4: The Way of the Warrior

@1:11:00 Quark & Garak's famous conversation on the Federation "It's insidious", scene was famous by January 1999 (http://nitcentral.philfarrand.com/discus/messages/5/13972.html?1469414360), isn't that interesting? @1:26:20 Gowron "We do not forgive...or forget", perhaps that's where the hacker group Anonymous got there slogan from. Bajoran law on unnecessary stops & seizure made a good point and would return later in the series.

Over all score: 9/10

Re: DS9 S2: The Maquis, Part I

@17:00 Why did Sisko only use warp 3 when answering the distress call from the Federation ship?

Re: DS9 S2: Playing God

Wasted potential, the life forms were never explored.

Re: DS9 S2: Necessary Evil

How could Rom (a Ferengi) be able to read a list of names written in Bajoran & why did they have English letters?

Re: LD S2: Wej Duj

@Yanks
>I'm sure "90182" as the designation of the Borg cube means something, but I don't know what it is.

I thought it was a reference to the show Beverly Hills, 90210 even though it has nothing to do with Trek.

Re: ENT S3: Anomaly

So, if you're an interstellar cop in the 24th Century, and you're looking for some bad guys, you just need to find the males with long hair! I think I've seen this commented on before, but it amuses me that almost all the villains in space have pony tails or shoulder length hair.

Re: DSC S3: The Sanctuary

Basically STFU Janey. LOL.

Re: TOS S3: Let That Be Your Last Battlefield

Nobody likes to being preached to, not even back in the day. This episode just gets annoying with its "Racism is bad mkay?" message.

Re: TOS S3: Is There In Truth No Beauty?

I'm tired of you people judging everything on things like "Sexism", It's always sexism with you, SEXISM THIS, SEXISM THAT. Put a beautiful woman on the screen and then it's SEXISM SEXISM AND MORE SEXISM to you sallow "fans". Let a woman be beautiful, and a WOMAN, who can be both capable and beautiful.

Re: TOS S2: Bread and Circuses

What's the problem with Kirk doing it with a slave who was more than willing to fulfill her duty? Are current Star Trek fans this weak and prudish?

Re: TOS S2: The Omega Glory

I get that the shoehorned American angle can be a tad jarring and hard to believe. But man, isn't it funny to see all these people cry over an American show showing some patriotism. Seesh are you people soft. (Ps I'm not even american)

Re: TOS S2: A Private Little War

This goes out to Okrad Del Diablo:
What the heck is wrong with you? Did this episode get your rocks off or what? Real creepy.
This goes out to William B:
So if a female is portrayed as the villain, that's misogyny? Get over yourself.

Re: ORV S1: Mad Idolatry

Thought I knew exactly what would happen as soon as that little girl spoke, but there were still some nice surprises in this one. Maybe my favorite episode tied with About A Girl. Although, for God's sake, I hope they stop focusing so much on Grayson/Mercer. I think any other character combo would be a more interesting focus for an episode at this point.
