@hopesdead @KillingAndKindess She was also excellent in Beef.

@Donebrach Hoping for a S3 from Netflix.

@arstechnica@mastodon.social This probably going to be a flypaper post where you can just pick off and block the anti-vaxxers in the comments.

@VerseAndVermin @FartsWithAnAccent I'm among the few who didn't like S3. I could not care less for "the chosen one" thing, which is just annoying and a tired trope.

@Salamendacious yup

@Salamendacious @Evilcoleslaw In Ira Steven Behr's doc "What we left behind", he get the original writers brainstorm a new season of DS9 and they promptly kill Nog in the first episode.

@Melco @mosiacmango The amount of mockery and opprobrium this episode has gotten over the years is entirely justified.

@ConstipatedWatson @NullaFacies i love that documentary.

@xusontha @ruckblack Well, it's very in line with LD but unique for SNW. It's the incongruity that makes it a riot.

@RootBeerGuy @ValueSubtracted I agree. They feel written by people who dislike ST.

@beefcat @sj_zero I agree that the doctor was the "exploring humanity" character until Seven was added. Neelix was the "hospitality" character, Guinan in TNG, and Quark in DS9, but it was poorly written to the point of just being annoying, IMO. If the whole "hounding Tuvok to get him to loosen up" was supposed to be funny, it failed.

@ArtieShaw @xilliah @TingoTenga Of all the "hospitality" people in ST (Guinan, Quark, Neelix), Neelix was by far the worst. He was just annoying. No wonder poor Tuvok couldn't stand him (and then they got merged :eyeroll: ).

@MaxHardwood @aksdb And the computer refuses to disclose crucial information because it has feelings. :eyeroll:

@1stTime4MeInMCU @StillPaisleyCat Same here. That is the only reason I subscribe to it.

@maino82 @oehm Agreed. The show because of Shohreh Aghdashloo, whose casting was a stroke of genius. And the books because it's a great story. Silo (on Apple TV) is also great. #ScienceFiction

@StillPaisleyCat I'm in the US. That might explain it: https://brioux.tv/blog/2022/12/07/think-fast-as-free-service-pluto-tv-comes-to-canada-courtesy-corus/ "The third catch: some of the goodies available on Pluto TV in the US are not available on Pluto TV in Canada. The main missing ingredient being anything Star Trek." 😦

@StillPaisleyCat try this maybe? https://pluto.tv/en/live-tv/5efbd39f8c4ce900075d7698

@StillPaisleyCat Weird. Maybe Canada has a different line-up than the US?

@StillPaisleyCat @Tired8281 There are two #startrek channels on Pluto, which is free with ads. One runs TOS and TNG. The other ran DS9 for months and now runs Voyager.

@fci @ValueSubtracted I agree with the greater potential with DS9 and Voyager. I remember a documentary on DS9 where Ira Steven Behr got the writers together and made them brainstorm a new DS9 season pilot and thought it sounded awesome. Unlike many, I was really, really, not enthused with Picard S3.
