  • Spoiler Alert

  • According to the Shatnerverse, reprogramming the test has become the expectation in the 24th century. The meaning of the test has completely inverted over time to become a lesson about thinking outside the box to win.

  • Agreed, you need that sweet water cooler talk to enjoy a show to its fullest.

  • I’m 40 years old, and that’s how I was taught. We were quizzed up to 12x12, and that’s way too many products to handle with just rote memorization.

  • Also one of TNG’s creepier episodes. At least it left a pretty strong impression on me as a kid.

  • But, no, the lizard thing didn’t happen to Geordi.

    Or did it?

  • Really?

    I don’t see it, but you do you.

  • Kid gave a reasonable answer without all the math bullshit

  • If I were an overworked teacher, I'd still rather award the point. Just throw down a checkmark and move on. I don't need to write an explanation, and the kid/parents are not going to complain.

  • Yeah, I understand not every show can last, but it became such a pattern with Netflix that it seemed like there was no point getting invested in anything new. If it wasn’t a Stranger Things level hit, it was guaranteed to be prematurely punted.

  • Carney signals a welcome new approach to governing. It’s about accountability

    Jump

  • Maybe elsewhere - in Toronto, The Sun is just a piece of trash. Definitely down with calling that one out.

  • Postmedia owns a lot of Canadian papers listed at that link, but Toronto Star isn't among them.

  • I left Netflix when they canceled Santa Clarita Diet and never looked back.

  • This and a couple other comments in this thread point to an aspect of Star Trek’s world building that hasn’t sat right with me for a long time. It’s supposed to be an utopianistic, egalitarian future. There’s no scarcity or need on Earth so everyone is supposed to be here because they want to be, out of a love of exploration and scientific advancement. So why is there such a disparity in treatment based on rank? Why does an ensign get stuck with a bunk in a hallway while Captain Picard gets a cushy executive suite? O'Brien at least had real quarters to raise his family in, but they were a comparative closet next to the bachelor Captain's. Doesn't seem right to me.

    All to say that, in my mind, if an ensign needs to stick to a manner of dress, so should an officer of rank. They're all part of the same fleet and deserving of the same respect.

  • Trekkies, is this accurate

    Jump

  • I don’t love the TOS one. The “everyone met as cadets at the academy” is Abrams, not TOS. Only McCoy and Kirk go way back like that.

    But the DS9 one captures the vibe perfectly.

  • I don't understand some people

    Jump

  • The humour in The Orville was shockingly weak, but that doesn’t speak to sci-fi in general. Red Dwarf, Hitchhiker’s Guide, Galaxy Quest, Spaceballs, and Futurama are all great space based comedies.

  • nuTrek has been pretty great for me, overall. Prodigy never managed to win me over, though. I'm well out of its target audience, so that's no surprise.
