StarTrek Hot

In my TNG season 1 rewatch, I finally got to the season finale, "The Neutral Zone." Though best known for Picard's utopian declarations to the cryogenically frozen people from the 90s about the post-scarcity future, it also centers on a tense confrontation with the Romulans. I noticed many parallels with the setup of the...

It's a classic, if somewhat exaggerated trope in Star Trek: The ships first officer, second officer, tactical officer, chief engineer, chief medical officer, and a random ensign beam down to an unsecured planet while some dangerous problem is either ongoing or likely to occur. The Doylist reasons for this are as obvious as the...

Basically looks like a reskin of Stellaris, unfortunately. Of course, I love Stellaris and will probably still get this at some point lol.

In recent years, I have been surprised to find one part of DS9 that keeps on getting better with age: the Ferengi. As vehicle of social commentary, they go where Trek never went before....

When doing some digging about the nature of Bajoran orbs I found an interesting piece of unused dialogue spoken by Bashir in the episode 'Accession' when discussing the neurotransmitter psilosynine:...

Long story short: Collect/crosspost all episode discussions in /c/watchparty (or similar)....

@williams_482 invited contributors from the old Daystrom to repost some favorites, so here is one of mine....

What are your favorite time travel episodes? Also what are your least favorite?

It is Stardate 2369.2, and Enterprise is docked at Starbase One. Chief Fleet Inspector Commander Pelia from Operational Support Services and her team are performing systems checks and upgrades....

I, for one, am happy to be here.

Well this is a tricky one to talk about....

While it was possibly just for the sake of naturalistic dialogue, the Una/Pike scene was definitely written in such a way that it hyped up their ideal lawyer - intentionally circling but not stating their identity - a she, who is avoiding their calls....

This is a bit of an ad, but I swear I don't sponsor H&I. I just use them a lot. My wife and I bought "bunny ears"/an antenna for our TV when we lived in the Midwest. We also watch H&I on the west coast. Almost every night they play one episode from each popular, live-action, series in order of production: TOS, TNG, DS9, Voyager,...

I've watched a lot of ST over my life and I swear this whole first contact but it's actually a warp bomb, DNA altering disguises.. Thing has been done in some previous ST series or movie but I have terrible memory? Or am I just crazy?

Description: A distress call from Lt. Noonien-Singh compels Spock to disobey orders and take the USS Enterprise and its crew into disputed space, risking renewed hostilities with the Klingons in a bid to aid their shipmate.

In April, the Roddenberry Archives and OTOY published virtual bridges you could walk around for most main ships we see on screen. But now, when I follow old links to the site, I get redirected to the Roddenberry Archives new frontpage, and I can't find the virtual bridges anywhere. Google finds several news articles of the...

At the end of The Way of the Warrior, Bashir offers to make Odo’s face look like any species he wants. He defines. It seems like a wasted opportunity for Odo not to have explored his identity within the confines of being a solid. I would have loved for him to realize he could change his appearance and explore being different...
