TNG had an ep about a self-running biological telepathic robot space ship, and an autistic telepath fell in love with it and they ran off together.

That space arms planet Minos I think had little floaty things about the size of a desk lamp. One of them flew into space and almost destroyed Enterprise.

No, no sir. But you see I love it EQUALLY. Not "oh this episode is good, this is not." Oh let's rank all the episodes because we're jerkoffs on the internet. Star Trek is eternal and wonderful as a whole. Dig it or don't.

When I've exhausted all else I'll probably watch Stargate. I only got as far as one of the forest episodes, was like, 'Armin Shimmerman, 'sup,' and just never picked it back up. I know it gets better and all and is all self aware and good popcorn sci-fi that doesn't take itself too seriously, and there's guns all the time, but I just look at that episode list and it's like, ok, that's a lot of hours. Maybe when I'm 60 and getting chemo through an IV, I'll get started, perk me right up.

Hm, well I stopped using Hulu a year ago when I got rid of Flash, but the attraction of paid Hulu was access to more shows, whole seasons, and fewer ads, but I could be misremembering. In all, if I pay anything, I expect zero ads, so they can do without my money.

I liked Janeway sometimes, but so much of the time I didn't. They really squandered a potentially interesting everything and a pretty fun actress. She should have kicked a little more rear end and had an arc, not played around with dumb poo poo in the holodeck and have an ethical transplant every other episode. God that holodeck stupid town loving sucked.

Borg ships could have been invincible flying computer balls instead, but that would have been more boring than space cyborg zombies, which are cool and interesting in these days of late 80's and early 90's television. In the far future, only giant robots that fight in big senseless blurs with invincible humans with superpowers who crash into buildings will make much better matter for TV shows and movies, no one will complain then.

Mr. Horrible posted:As I understand it though, Trek nerds have been mad about each new incarnation of the franchise ever since TOS, even before the new things were available to see. I don't really understand that level of hostility. I guess watching all that anime as a kid made me more accepting of alternate continuity? I wanted to get into the new movies, I just couldn't get past all the Michael Bay styling.

Then after they leave I rewatch the episode and masturbate furiously before shooting hot sticky loads all over the dom-jot table I have in my basement. You joke, but that's a legitimate warmup for using the little jackoff sticks they play domjot with.
