I have been a Trekkie long before I joined.

Pretty much my thing.

This meant to be satire?

Considering he didn’t understand as a child that staring at Bulma naked was not appropriate, I’m not surprised he doesn’t know what a penis is.

EDIT: Yes I read that conversation as the voices of Christopher Sabat and Sean Schemmel.

You can find this on the album Inside Star Trek. Gene Roddenberry was asked to give an example of network notes. For context, just know Gene was a Humanist. He framed The Bible as if it was the script for a television show. Everything pretty much would have been deemed inappropriate.

I know we tease people in modern times who would criticize Jesus of Nazareth for how he has been historically known, but it is wild how a religious text would not been deemed acceptable for 60s or 70s television.

But is he really? He was from a future that was erased by the actions of the NX-01.

Sounds like something someone else would say…

It was restarted in like the last year.

I hate that Ben Stiller named that character such. Stiller is a big TOS fan (doesn’t seem to have watched anything else based on interviews). He named his production company Red Hour.

EDIT: I do not like Zoolander.

Eight months before my grandfather passed, I bought a bottle of chateau Picard. I thought since he liked TNG and wine, he’d share it with me. Wasn’t to his liking. He told me to finish it fast. By the end of the week it tasted awful.

EDIT: There was sediment at the bottom of the bottle which formed.

 

A warning upfront. They rank every single uniform, even clothing you didn’t realize was a uniform. The video is 1 hour 14 minutes long.

Chris Fenoglio, artist who worked on the Lower Decks ongoing comic book series, recreated the iconic pin-up of X-Men in swimsuits for the Lower Decks crew. Even some non-crew got featured (to fully recreate every detail of the original).

 

If they actually assimilated exocomps, Peanut Hamper would be the first person to get kicked out of the Collective.

 

Sorry for the screenshot. The announcement was a Facebook Reels post. No individual images. It is the same magnetic style as the badges Fansets are well known for. No information if STLV will be the launch of this product or a limited release just for STLV this year. Hope I can get one.

UPDATE: According to a comment on the post, this will become available on the website after STLV. So look for it after August 10.

For those unaware, Garrett Wang has discussed many times that on his way to his Voyager audition, he almost ran over Harrison Ford at Paramount Studios.

Dirty Laundry is a game show on Dropout where guest (mainly comedians) drink cocktails and guess each other’s secrets.

EDIT: Just to be clear, this wasn’t Garrett, and that isn’t a secret. And no one brings that up.

New Key West Tourism Ad (startrek.website)
submitted 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) by hopesdead@startrek.website to c/tenforward@lemmy.world
 

Heard a tourism ad for Key West, Florida which has the line “There’s only one road into Key West[…]” on The D-Con Chamber podcast. This is where my mind went.
