I don't know if Back to the Future started it, but I feel like casting Michael J Fox as both of his kids and also his great-great grandfather was kind of tongue in cheek. I think they knew it was silly. When Enterprise cast Spiner as Soongh's ancestor it was fun to see him again, but it...

That IS interesting. Brent Spiner could just play that Data in plainclothes.

I am running about a week behind on the show. Last night I saw Picard and Jurati go into the chateau on the vineyard and I loved some quiet subtext on the scene. In the first episode it showed a school age Picard moving to the vineyard and there was no detail but I felt like it could touch on...

Refresh my memory on the armored guy above the Thundertank..

It is an awful lot of information. Certainly more than a human brain can hold. But then a computer chip could probably do it. It might be safer not to, though. How much do you want an off-network drone to be carrying around?

If someone doesn't want to click, the answer the writer gave is that in the current reality Picard was a conqueror and didn't travel back to the 19th century to figure out the Data mystery. Star Trek has not followed consistent rules about time travel, so ... The answer is "okay". I feel like...

How many Trek shows can they juggle at a time?

I picked up Slag yesterday and I was really struck by how big he is. I am sure Grimlock was the same size but I forgot. Will they make Swoop and then stop? It would be funny if they just snuck Snarl into generations similar to how Earthrise and Kingdom obviously dovetailed with this line on...

I had an idea some time back that it would be really fun to have Kirk be there and not be important. Just a low level guy that never said anything except "Aye Captain" and such. But it will take tremendous discipline for them not to make him the focus of the show that was supposed to be about...

Yeah, I thought of that. I mean...these are the sort of things that a Starfleet captain is supposed to be prepared to do. The biggest deal there is his role in stopping that conspiracy. Maybe. I've never heard of a USS Kirk and he was arguably a pretty big deal... Probably a big question...

I feel like there have been a lot of starships named after famous people and they were all just last name until Hikaru Sulu. Am I wrong about that? It makes me feel weird too. I like that unlike most of Kirk's crew, Sulu got his own wings. And I don't know how many starships there are...

They sometimes interpret the word this way.

The trailer is kind of a nothing sandwich.

He had to be pulled off the guy because the emotion he still hasn't mastered is fear that someone he cares about will be taken from him. That guy almost killed Selena and Bruce couldn't control himself.

I assumed it was adrenaline.

I find that part unbelievable. She wasn't possessed. I worry about a future where it is okay to murder someone if you can demonstrate that someone sincerely told you that the victim was going to bring about a disaster.

I would rather ride that than a SuperMax.

Can you be more specific? I don't see what from Season 1 has been hand waved and I don't know what feedback has apparently been taken seriously and I don't see how the show has been reinvented.

That makes Thunderchild at least, but not much more than, 27 years old. That's about how old 1701 was when it got refit. NCC-2000 would be like 120 years old. The side view shown in the graphic is totally distinguishable, but I saw it from the front and could tell no difference in the time I...

I was really surprised that the Excelsior herself is in service over a century later.
