Star Trek?

[whisky]

I don't know about subtle, but it was years before I realised a piece of the action was a dig at the bible.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I think the good episodes of TOS all hold up well but the bad episodes are unwatchable (I defy anyone to get through 'The Lights Of Zetar' or whatever it was called.)

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

i'm watching carbon creek

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

oh man am i not enjoying the vulcans. they're written as idiots.

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

how is this on so many Best Of Enterprise lists uggggggh

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

It's bad.

 

[The Question]

Because of Star Trek, I just watched City on the Edge of Forever for the first time.

Harlan Ellison's version is better, IMO.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I read the comic adapation of Harlan Ellison's version. They never would have been able to get all that into an episode (they coudln't even afford the "city on the edge of forever" part in the actual episode.)

Jammer hated Carbon Creek and his reviews were how I found TrekBBS so I trust him. [ENT] Jammer's Review: "Carbon Creek"

But it was T'Pol wasn't it?

I thought that was the point of the scene at the end with the purse.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I think it had been passed down her family for generations?

 

[whisky]

I took it as she didn't want to tell the humans she was nearly 200 years old.

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

T'Pol is canonically 65 in S2.

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

I downloaded Dear Doctor and Home. At least one of those is good.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

Awwww, Jammer's reviews! I used to spend hours there...

 

[Colonel Kira's Left Tit]

Oh. There's going to be a new series.

*yawn*

 

[CaptainWacky]

I'd totally forgotten everything about this announcement until I scrolled by this thread today.

 

[The Question]

Will they fuck it up?

Yes.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Can they get Bryan Fuller to be in charge of it, please.

Of course that means it won't last more than three seasons, but they'll be good seasons!

OH HI WACKY.

Ok wild prediction, they will get Jenna Coleman to play a part in it.

Dead Redshirts Like Me!
