Star Trek: The Next Generation

[straightorbroken]

Data's stand-up realisation a bit like how I feel whenever I have seen bits of that Mrs Brown show.

 

[straightorbroken]

The actor very nearly was cast as Riker.

I think the right man got the job. I like the FO posturing as someone goodlooking rather than being jaw-droppingly so.

 

[straightorbroken]

Episode 4. Loud As a Whisper.

The night is young. Let's see how many I can plough through at warp speed.

 

[straightorbroken]

The hairspray and blow drying on the FO's hair groomed into candy floss is really something in this elevator close-up. Picard calling him a mother hen was bordering on homo-erotocism. For me anyway.

 

[straightorbroken]

I wonder when they'll update the graphics of the opening credits. I absolutely love them, they make me nostalgic for the first PC I had in the 90s (and those amazing software boxes for software).

 

[straightorbroken]

Ginger Jesus Riva has quite the soundtrack playing in his home. I'm expecting Dannii's Everybody Changes Underwater to begin.

 

[straightorbroken]

Ginger Jesus and his 3 puppeteers must make intimate moments rather interesting.

 

[straightorbroken]

Asking for the salt would be a nightmare.

 

[straightorbroken]

A tad obvious that the libido chorus member is the one one of them to go on Troi's bedroom tour guide.

A tad obvious that the libido chorus member is the one one of them to go on Troi's bedroom tour guide.

It’s hard to see what his use is in negotiations - unless sometimes they just all have an orgy.

 

[straightorbroken]

Perhaps he offers the tutorial if need be.

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh the innuendos on this dinner date are positively revolting. This is like something from Love Island.

 

[straightorbroken]

The lighting on the contours of Deanna's face is gorgeous though.

 

[straightorbroken]

Who do you love now, Riva?

 

[straightorbroken]

This Solaian showdown with the planet of the Mick Hucknalls went well.

 

[straightorbroken]

With all this Pulaski pulling a fast one, I'm going to google Crusher as I don't think I've seen her season 3 makeover and I'm 5 episodes in!

 

[straightorbroken]

Okay so she is back next season. Copying and pasting from Wikipedia, is this footnote worth buying?

Episode 7. I was convinced Dr Kingsley was the old dear from Desperate Housewives, but she is in fact not. She passed in 2011 and this was about her 4th last gig if you don't count that time she opened for Joan Osborne.

 

[straightorbroken]

The shiny plastic on the transported child would be alarming had I not appreciated the high art high street shenanigans of Sophie Ellis Bextor's Get Over You video back in 2001 or so.

 

[straightorbroken]

The transporter control Starfleet Officer who just said "we have a green panel, sir" is bit of a dish and I don't mean satellite It's also slim pickings.

 

[straightorbroken]

Dr Kingsley has lied? What a bitch, I hope no one gives her moisturiser for her 36th birthday.

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh I'm guessing she did it on purpose.

Was he Irish? If so you will become quite familiar with him as the series progresses

 

[straightorbroken]

Poor Polaski. And now she's turning into talc.

 

[straightorbroken]

Was he Irish? If so you will become quite familiar with him as the series progresses

Yes! He also flicked his leg up and started singing.

 

[straightorbroken]

And now she's Betty White the Hot In Cleveland years.

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh no, that's O'Brien, COB (), I'm talking about his younger colleague.

 

[straightorbroken]

"You heard what he said, let's get those panels off"

Oh I say

 

[straightorbroken]

How Picard keeps a straight face sometimes. Well, if I wasn't convinced of his near perfection I'd wonder.

 

[straightorbroken]

Gosh, all that was missing with Polaski transporting back to her young self there was Picard yelling "Siempre Viva! Live forever!"

 

[straightorbroken]

I totally missed who or why they fired there, but that's a wrap for now.

 

[straightorbroken]

Episode 9 has a hologram of Hazell. I don't need to see that.

The Data denier looks remarkably like Anthony Quinlam from Emmerdale.

 

[straightorbroken]

Back to 9. This is hard going. Poor Data. Even a machine demands dignity for the purpose in which it was intended for, not to demonstrate humanity's fascination for destroying things. I've been stirred.

 

[straightorbroken]

Hazell again. Can't she haunt some pool table?

 

[Indie]

Fun fact: Dr. Bruce Maddox plays a pivotal part in Star Trek: Picard

Although i assume it's not actually the same actor.

 

[straightorbroken]

The hostile witness is a prototype Will Truman, but all I'm still seeing is Emmerdale guy. I wonder what he looks like now.

 

[straightorbroken]

My copy of The Finest Crew in the Fleet: The Next Generation Cast On Screen and Off arrived today, but I'm saving it for breaks at work. It looks like the perfect read for such time capsules.

 

[straightorbroken]

Bruce Maddox is so dark and moody. And creepy, but I've overlooked more in the past.

 

[straightorbroken]

Picard skipped lunch for this scene!

In about 300 episodes time I can't wait to find out. I hope it is though, I feel it would really add to whatever hostile witnessing there is still to be had.
