That seems to be happening more and more these days. While I certainly still support new figures for those who now can't easily get the old ones, if it isn't superior in some important way to the original (and I already have the original), I'm not going to buy the new toy and will be perfectly...

I'm not even sure how to respond to this. The ring was completely new technology. Huyang commented on its immensity. They weren't just traveling to some uncharted star, but to an entirely different galaxy. Several orders of magnitude farther away. None of the stuff you said is relevant.

While I can believe that Ahsoka's ship does now have the tracking data to get them home, my understanding is that the hyperdrive abilities of the ring were so massively beyond those of traditional hyperdrives that the distance required to get home is simply too great for Ahsoka's ship to handle...

For me, I'd consider the Brig a special case, but Benton and Yates are definitely NOT companions (in my rubric).

Yeah, no. I don't count companions who weren't around for at least a couple of stories. Adam is my baseline. He's definitely NOT someone I count, and anyone who had less of a right than him is even more out. At least he was (more or less) invited in and was in more than one story.

I hope his attempt to use that argument is one of the facts used to nail him to the wall.

"Requirement" should not be synonymous with "sufficient."

Last panel tells me what direction they're going in. It's exactly what I expected, but it's not a direction I'm willing to go with them. I'm out.

One has not been officially announced, so there's a reason you haven't seen it.

I'd count Adam before counting Craig (and I don't count Adam). (FWIW, I don't count Sara Kingdom, either... the "third" of the "two" classic series deaths I was referencing earlier... but I readily agree that she occupies an area that one could interpret differently.)

The point I was making remains. All of those people, unless they actually DIED (which happened all of twice in 26 years), made a choice to leave the Doctor (with the definite exception of Peri, although her status is... as you put it... more than a little ambiguous... and even more so if you...

It's definitely a lot worse for modern companions than for most companions back in the day. But, then, with the exception of Martha, they've pretty much started saying that no companion would ever leave the Doctor of their own free will, which never used to be the case.

Twice now it's been suggested that Chapel will marry Roger Korby. That's not the case. They were only engaged.

Very much that. Besides, with the inability to use Odo (certainly not as we know him) or Nog, I think the ship for a DS9 movie has long since sailed. Any attempt made nowadays wouldn't be what we actually want to see.

Yeah, I was much more into them when they were all about replacement label sets. I understand that they eventually HAD to move into other stuff (the number of sets for which reproductions could be made being finite), but I do wish they'd actually tackled all of those gaps first.

THANK YOU! Seriously, the reason I (speaking only for myself) complain about them is because I DO want to buy the sets, but these days, they add so much to what's really necessary that it puts me off, and then ToyHax doesn't get a sale at all (at least, not from me).

I'd like for one of those "options" to be "the ability to pay less and get what I actually want" rather than "pay more to get a bunch of stuff I never wanted."

If Jean-Luc and Beverly want to get together again, I don't exactly protest. I just really feel it's important to say that, having had a son over two decades ago should NOT be considered one of the reasons. They've reconnected now. How do they feel about that? That's all that should matter at...

Honestly, I'd have been perfectly happy if they had him marry Laris (and especially if they didn't just drop her after S3E1). Just because he had a kid with Beverly doesn't mean they have to get married 20+ years later. I'm glad they reconnected, but if that ship's sailed, I'm okay with that.

That's been the pattern up to now. At least this one wasn't obsessively offensive.
