aww that is a sweet dedication. It reminds me of my friend who went by Cherbear sometimes.. she died... three years ago.

I'm not a big fan of the trope of soldiers "fighting" to stay alive while they bleed out. You can't fight blood loss with willpower. I relate to Worf's position.

even though the show was already "didn't think this would be good, but it is" the movie STILL surprised me. Really expected it to suck. Even the art wasn't more than... 5% worse than the show. 1:14 did you call Cadance Crystal? I can't really throw shade, nobody can spell her name right because it's a really clumsy pun. Most of the time you're lucky if you don't see "Candace" or "Candance." and even weirder, her full name is Cadenzia.. So how is that not Cadence with an E? whatever. 1:23 cosmic forces? more like cosmic horses. thank you i'm here all video long

I’d criticize Anakin for killing the worm but given how often things like that escape and cause issues later, that was probably the right call.

👀 & the term conspiracy theory & theorist, etc. That was us. The term was deemed by CIA & Fed later, came up with the term 'conspiracy theorist'. 🚬

Interesting that you brought up Washington, DC as a comparison for why the Federation President wouldn't be dealing with a strictly Earth-centric emergency, when in the Constitution, Congress has exclusive jurisdiction over laws in DC, and the DC mayor and city council only exist at the permission of Congress - so in a way I wonder if something similar happened with Earth's government after the Federation formed, where control was slowly given away to the Federation President and Council as Earth found itself with far less problems that a full planetary government would be needed for (when most bureaucratic and logistical needs could be taken over by the Federation)

This was actually one of TNG’s most memorable episodes, next to Best of Both Worlds, Yesterday’s Enterprise, Genesis, Evolution & Time’s Arrow. It was unique. I always liked it.

A rare instance of Chuck spending the post episode follow-up of an Enterprise episode praising it.

Thomas Riker would have been a great character for Picard to encounter on the pirate ship here.

You know how the Captain isn't supposed to go on away missions? Riker did it as soon as he was acting Captain...and was captured. Then Data did it when he was acting Captain, except he didn't get captured. This episode often gets slated. Whilst it's not near my top 10, I actually quite like it.

I love the opening here, with everyone just staring at the dalek while it chants, implying that not only has the Doctor given up on his protests, he's also given up on telling it to stop and now everyone's just waiting for it to tire itself out.

Different historians are specialised on different aspects of a time period. Politics society military etc. Finding a historian specialised on XX century culture might not be that hard in TNGs era. Since XX culture included a lot of sci-fi involving aliens there would probably be a pretty healthy field of studies analyzing this due to the fact that in TNG aliens are a common everyday reality. So seeing how humans imagined the future would be of interest.

If I remember correctly, these are the episodes that end with the romulan emotion weapon that turns out to be useless. They were kind of okay, and at least they weren't awful, but they could have been better.

No space pirates seems like an odd rule. It's not like ST shied away from other cliches, or that it has to be a cliche. What about an episode where Picard has to deal with some kind of civilization where, because of weak rule of law and valuable resources in the area, piracy is rampant and respected. Maybe he can't solve everything, at best he accomplished his mission and got whatever the Federation wanted and has to leave knowing it's not enough.

Picard's wearing a harness. Does that make him one of the Masters of the Universe?

5:13 What cultural appropriation BS is this, Chuck? It would be 'Kahless eats dicks in Gre'thor'

Space Flukeman.

As an alternate option involving Thomas Riker, imagine this: We start the episode with the scene we only hear described in the real episode: Picard, under cover, is asking questions in a seedy bar when Baran and his crew take exception to this. There's an argument, then a fight, Picard is shot, and we see him seemingly vaporized. Cut to titles. Then, on returning, we see Picard wake up on the pirate ship. Only instead of Riker finding Picard among the crew, Picard is surprised to find Riker helping Baran. In private, Riker tells him that Picard was overdue back from his leave, so he came looking for him and got captured by the pirates. Riker tells him that he did some fast talking and the crew doesn't know who he really is; they think he's a corrupt junior officer who was involved with an artifact smuggling scheme. From here, we follow the two of them for a bit as they try to unravel what's really going on before cutting back to the Enterprise and their investigation of Picard's "death." An investigation being led by one Commander William T. Riker. The Riker being held prisoner with Picard is actually Thomas. Thomas, who *isn't dirty,* I think it's important to say. He's just impulsive and not as experienced as Will, and he got in over his head trying to help someone and is now trying to lie and scheme his way out of it. Only Picard knows Will well enough to figure it out ahead of time. Together, they save the day, Thomas learns a *First Duty*-style lesson due to Picard being disappointed in him, and Data doesn't mutiny because of a joke.

You know, while I'm upset Lower Decks is only getting one more season, I'm glad they're more likely to end too soon than too late..

One thing I will give this movie that sets it apart from other films like it. There are consequences IN the series from the fallout of this film. This adventure serves for the impetus for the school, which draws in not only 6 new characters into their own core cast setup, but sets up roles for others who had been hanging around, like Starlight, and introduces a new antagonist who will stand with some of the early shows best. That said, that is not PART of this movie, that is future writers seeing the potential for story telling and running with it. And that's yet more characters the show will honestly not do enough with, which is the odd thing about this franchise at this time. We talk about it, but almost everyone you speak to will point out, we wanted more WIDE shots of this world, because they characters were awesome, and we wanted to see the world that made them.

I'm getting a T-Shirt that says "Kahless sucks dicks in Gre'thor"

As we approach 10 years, I need to know; who would win a fight, Janeway or your chimney?

Between burning sapient aliens alive and the casual way they blast away droids that possess both emotions and a fear of death, I'm surprised more Jedi weren't questioning their roles in this war.

To the credit of the TOS producers, they got the Screen Actors Guild involved after John Barrymore failed to show for filming instead of just taking one for the team and moving on. Ultimately, the SAG ruled in favor of TOS and suspended Barrymore's acting credentials for six months. As for Robert Brown....I guess that's the best they could get on short notice. Even so, this episode is an easy skip for me. 😕

Gonna be honest: The Rock as Picard would be something I'd love to see. The speeches would certainly be an experience, at least. (Whether or not it would be a _good_ experience, however...) Just imagine how Family would play out in that timeline, eh?

Hey, that's the bad guy from Werewolf!

Richard Lynch is who you call when you can't afford Rutger Hauer.

The more time goes by the more I see the lost potential Thomas Riker could’ve had for the series. Instead he got one appearance in DS9 that ended with him in a Cardassian prison.

This was such a bad episode. Was so boring, and played it safe.

It didn’t help that the writers were stretched so thin between TNG and DS9, as well as preparing for Generations and Voyager.

"Picard Joins A Space Gang" "It's Always Sunny on the Enterprise."

Aye aye Captain

Based on the comments and what brought me back here this should be called Chuck makes chocolate and distills nostalgia's pain and beauty, and oh yeah some comments about a movie about Wonka - i love it I think this somewhat points out what i hate about the memberberry idea from Southpark - it seems to make nostalgia cheap. As something that can be used to get claps, - but no there is a pain knowing that a time, place, situation aspect of life with such wonder or beauty or joy, and it has passed and cannot be returned to ever. I have an photo album in called one perfect day wtih photos from a day i had returning from holiday with my wife and first born who was about 2 and a half, . I struggle to look at it wothout tears - and i have a happy life, and thank God for that day. It wasnt truly perfect, but i wonder did i enjoy it enough, did i make the most of that time when my little boy would laugh with such joy at splashing in a puddle. He doesn't laugh the same any more

Can anyone help me find the video where nostalgia is talked about - i remember it but not the video it's in - it hit me hard that bit - I want to re-watch and listen and consider

No war for 400 years?A society as violent as the roman one?Not even a civil war something that the romans often dabbled in? This is one of those situations in which its obvious Gene didn't care that much for plausibility. If they had said 60 or 100 maybe that could work.

I like that the Scene on the Antimatter-version of the Planet are filmed on a Set instead of on Location as the rest of the Scenes. Gives the setting a weird feel. Heck, I like the entire Scene of Kirk talking to the sane Lazarus. Perhaps the only moment this Episode kinda comes together. By the way, if I had played a drinking game and taken a shot every time Lazarus either a) Falls down a Mountain, or b) fights his counterpart in that Blue Corridor, I wouldn't have stayed sober for long.

I have a sudden urge to got to the lobby and get myself a treat.

The "The Ship" salvage claim also isn't worth calling out because it's delivered as the transparent BS it is. Salvage rights between states exist only as agreed upon by treaty, and no such treaty exists between the Federation and the Dominion. For opposing belligerents in a declared war, the rules are very different. One of the things I like about Sisko's character is that for as much as he doesn't respect the greasy dissimulation of Vorta negotiation, he gives them back as good or better on many occasions - perhaps ironically, he's a more skillful diplomat than most of Trek's cruiser captains, historically a post conferring something very close to plenipotentiary powers on its holder, and thus typically involving much scrutiny to ensure those nominated for such commands would handle them properly.

It takes real talent to turn a "the world is ending" story into a slog.

Naomi, Neelix and death. that's the voyager episode I live for.

I sometimes wonder if in the Trek universe do they have any follow up missions to planets with weird discoveries? For example this planet would be of huge interest to historians. The place were the greek gods came from?Ie Ancient aliens was true all along?Just about every historian specialised on Antiquity would sell his arm for the chance of seeing such a place. Heck historians would be offended that they had to eliminate one of the few 'living' links to the world of Antiquity.

Oh. TOS, you burned me out for a good reason.

"antilife" Call Superman, Cyborg, and Halo, Wonder Woman, Metron, Mr. Miracle, Orion, and the Ray. NOW

Kirk: He's no mad-dog killer. He's after something.

I am sure I'm not alone when I say, "This is my least liked TOS episode".

They are REALLY lucky that they didn't just phase pistol their way through whatever system keeps the inside of the ship contained in that tiny space... Imagine what would happen if the ship literally explosively decompressed inside Enterprise!

Clovis couldn’t even have used Padme123 as his password?

I think the only reason I half remember this episode is because it was the last Original episode I hadn't seen. Over a year or so, I managed to catch all the episodes on whatever channel was airing them thirty years ago. I think my only thoughts after seeing it were, "At least I've seen the entire series now."

So often in fiction we see people successfully coerce information out of people by force (or threat of it) so it was nice to see it fail for once when they tried it with Bane. Dude played them the whole time.

Yep. Confusing af.
