Not DS9. Good guess though.

OK going TNG then, with the age and those eyes, Picard??

Yep. He was a cutey. I honestly thought the age of the photography would give it away, but then I guess everybody for all 4 shows are getting up there so in retrospect it would be difficult to tell.

Wow! The new figures look great. Much better than the ones I have from back in the day. Too bad I don't spend $ on action figures any more.

Don't remember this episode but I'll keep that in mind when I get to it

Looking at this, O'Brien has been done so badly on DS9.


S4E19 "Hard Time" how does one bounce back from that experience

S2E25 "Tribunal" goes to Cardassian jail

Hated that episode. Reminded me of the episode where Picard was captured by the Cardassians. Can't watch that episode

Yeah, but it sure gives you some insight to the Cardassians, guilty with no course of being proven innocent. Crazy.

Spocking Fives

OK at the end of season 3 they introduce Leeta. The first episode to feature Leeta is in the episode "Explorers" where they show Leeta hitting on Bashir in Quarks and that's pretty much what she does in that episode

OK the next episode to have Leeta in it is called "Facets" in which Dax ask her closes and dearest friends (which for some reason Leeta is included) to join her Zhian'tara ritual (The memories of her former hosts will take over their bodies) So if you missed the episode "Explorers" you be like who the hell is this lady????

To Boldly Stay: How Deep Space Nine Upended Star Trek by Exposing Utopia's Dark Side



If you could condense Star Trek into one core principle, you’d probably choose “to boldly go,” the grand quest that has been the mandate of all Star Trek TV shows—except one. Riding the warp-trail of the groundbreaking Next Generation, Deep Space Nine first premiered 25 years ago, and the new show chose not to boldly go, but to boldly stay, with the story focusing on life aboard a space station. For many fans this seemed far too static, and the show faced a lot of criticism during its time on air. Yet Deep Space Nine only becomes more relevant as the years go by, as the series had a lot to say about the complacency of utopia

Don't know why people complain about the crew being stuck on DS9. They still were exploring planets and the Gama quadrant with their Runabouts and the Defiant. There were many episodes on TNG with just life on the Enterprise.

I missed all the hubbub and gossip when the show originally aired, but I could see there being resistance to it with Gene passed, and it departing from some set standards. But now, I agree it fits perfectly in the ST uni.

‘Star Trek: Discovery’ Writers Talk Captain Pike, Klingons Having Two ‘Organs’ And More



https://trekmovie.com/2018/02/18/star-trek-discovery-writers-talk-captain-pike-klingons-having-two-organs-and-more/

However, Harberts indicated that Captain Pike will play a role in season two, saying:

The thing to consider about Captain Pike is, from an audience and writer’s point of view, there is something very exciting about a key character from [Star Trek: The Original Series] who’s only been explored in two episodes of the original series — three if you consider how [the rejected pilot for the original series] “The Cage” works into the puzzle in TOS. When we think about the idea of Captain Pike, it opens up some large possibilities. We will never say never to exploring him a little bit more.

I'm not going to say much about the Klingons having 2, it seems so "jump the shark" so early in the series, plus it's getting confusing how earth humans can have babies with beings so genetically different, but then I don't know maybe it's just part of the process.

Not sure about anything regarding Discovery, waiting for it to come out on DVD

On season 4. Some notable changes, Worf joins the cast, Sisko goes bald, and Dr. Bashir is now Alexander Siddig.

I forget is that the season where Kira ends up carrying Keiko and O'Brien's baby? What a work around storyline.

Wow I don't even remember that at all. Guessing Nana Visitor must of been pregnant in real life.

Just watched the episode "The Visitor" maybe one of the best episodes of the Star Trek universe
