I can't see Yaphet Kotto as Picard. Although part of me wonders if casting an African-American fellow to play a French-named guy means that Jean Luc Picard would have had ended up with all of the New Orleans stuff they used for Sisko later.

Holy poo poo that was bad. But it's stealthily bad, since the first 15 minutes just make it seem like any ordinary bland episode, and then it takes a turn and just keeps getting worse and worse until BOOM space slug sex.

I think Robert Picardo said that he auditioned for Tuvok and thought that would be the juiciest role.Big Mean Jerk posted:https://twitter.com/trekcore/status/1249683759164723200?s=21 Only if they got an even smaller personal shuttle for him to fly.

Wanna watch the TNG with Yaphet Kotto's Picard, Jeffrey Coombs as Riker (not in this sheet but OBVIOUSLY the best choice), KPH as Data, Rosalind Chao's Troi (assuming they ultimately switch Yar and Troi as the OTL did), Reggie Jackson as Geordi and Jenny Agutter as Crusher.

It is really frustrating watching the DS9 where Dax and Worf finally hook up because Keiko is clearly trying to angle for a poly relationship with Kira, but Kira and Miles are too heteronormative to take a loving hint. Poor Keiko.

Whereas I'm finding anytime I see an episode that is heavy on Kazon poo poo I immediately lose interest. I also tried to use this list for my first full Voyager watch a few months ago and found it similarly wrongheaded, with a few exceptions. My genuine advice is to watch the first 10 minutes and if the episode doesn't grab you to read the summary on Memory Alpha. If it really sounds interesting/important you can keep watching. Protip: Doctor/Seven episodes are almost always worth watching. Chakotay episodes are usually bad/racist.

Cross posting from the modern trek thread, but the official site just put up a 30 minute timelapse of building the Discovery sets and it's pretty interesting if you're into that behind the scenes type of thing. https://intl.startrek.com/videos/watch-a-star-trek-discovery-timelapse

TIL that the wub wub wub sound of the whale probe in ST IV was made by an engineer recording Nimoy making the sound with his mouth, which was later heavily distorted.

One nerdy thing I like about Trek is learning about all the re-using and re-dressing of props and sets due to budget constraints. It's just a fascinating study in problem solving and ingenuity. Things like filming the same ship upside down so it looks like a different ship. Or the Angel One matte painting being used for half the planets in the galaxy by filming it under different lighting or distances. Or how they could make bridges for all the different Federation ships by just moving around the chairs.

I love that some of the sets they built for TMP and WOK lasted like 30 years in different configurations, now that's getting your money's worth.

It makes me think of Blake's 7 and that one shuttle they resued like five or more times and they had no budget to hide the fact.

They did it from large to small scale too; from the Enterprise refit bridge from the movies being used as the 1701-D battle bridge and the Stargazer bridge, through the TOS transporter platform floor becoming the TNG transporter platform ceiling, to Bashir using a tool that’s a repainted nacelle from a Romulan D’deridex class warbird model.

Every time I see that list and see Roy Thinnes's name in consideration for Picard, I think of the Law & Order pilot where Thinnes is done up with those dorky suspenders and huge Soviet carpet salesman glasses as the district attorney, and imagine that guy (striped shirt, suspenders and all) sitting in the captain's chair.

Sash! posted:"This episode calls for a civilian freighter and a small scale military power's warship." In a cruel joke against me, this is one of only a scant handful of micro machine ships that I didn't lose in the Big Stupid Take Your Favorite Toy to School Day adventure. I believe the others were a Ferengi marauder, a Borg cube, and some purple Voyager piece of poo poo.
