Netflix releasing ALMOST ALL THE STAR TREK on Watch Instantly isn't going to be so good for my social life, is it?

I am bizarrely tempted to go back and complete my lists of palatable-vs-nonpalatable episodes of Enterprise for the benefit of desperate fankind. But then I would have to rewatch...a lot of Enterprise. True, Connor Trinneer has ( Read more... )

Um, thoughts on a rewatch done too late to contribute to ds9_rewatch. Oops.
( So if you want a war, I'll give you one. )

Except for the fact that my schedule makes attending the communal rewatches unlikely, the prospect of undertaking a third Deep Space 9 re-viewing with ds9_rewatch is just so tempting. It really only takes a couple of months away before I start to miss the love! the drama! the endearingly appropriate scenery-chewing ( Read more... )

So much love for these adorable TNG set pictures. Especially Marina Sirtis's fifteen-year love affair with putting her feet up on the bridge.

It sort of boggles me that Voyager has almost no standout episodes -- past S2, it's consistently decent with occasional forays into WTFery, but it has no equivalent of "Best of Both Worlds" or "The Inner Light" or "The Visitor" that one can point to and go, "Ah, yes, that's a fine hour of Star TrekOn the other hand, ( Read more... )

Observations from S4 and S5 Voyager, starting to get into the episodes I've only seen once or twice (i.e., those that are woefully unfamiliar to me in comparison to most of modern Trek ( Read more... )

There are so many random Voyager episodes that I forget about or had mentally written off as whack fanfic that I read once in 1997...even though I did a series rewatch four years ago. The one where Tom and Neelix are gay dads to a dinosaur. The one where Michael McKean is a sinister clown and you realize that he should have been hired to play a Q ( Read more... )
