Yeah, to make the most obvious parallel, I don't think it would have been cool for Picard to have taken steps to boost the House of Mogh's status within the Klingon Empire, in the name of diplomacy or otherwise.

And to be clear, I don't think any of this is a particularly big deal.

The Prime Directive forbids interference with the internal affairs of any society.

I hate to bring this up, but giving all the treasure to Tendi's family is pretty definitely a Prime Directive violation.

I found a small amount of info on Memory Alpha, but surely there's more out there somewhere:

Most of the wanted posters seen on Deep Space Nine were make-up continuity photos provided by the make-up department from actors who previously appeared in a Star Trek episode such as Jeffrey Hayenga, Frank Collison, and Norman Large.

they missed the classic Lower Decks balance of seriousness and humor on the A plot and played it slightly too straight in a way that made it seem too much like a run-of-the mill multiverse episode.

Yeah...it feels somewhat intentional, as showing alternate versions of the characters that really weren't that different was kind of the point, but that's not exactly a comedy latinum mine.

In the Mike McMahan interview TrekMovie ran yesterday, he said they knew it was going to be the final season fairly early in the writing process, so you could be on to something.

But also the way the show ends, while it does feel final, it also blooms into all these other opportunities that we could either make shows, or we could do comics or write books, or fans could just very fully imagine that these characters are still doing awesome Star Trek stuff, and it’s different. We end with them in a different place, but there’s no betrayals. Nobody’s gonna feel like we pulled the rug out from under them.

They're still going to kill Trip Tucker though, right?

"Prodigy" has demonstrated that they're willing to cancel something they gave an early renewal to.

I'm wondering if he'll be playing Roger Korby. During the panel, they said that they wouldn't confirm or deny certain rumours that have apparently been floating around.

Edit: I forgot they already cast him.

Between her, Holly Hunter, and Paul Giammatti, this is a pretty stacked cast (even though they're not all series regulars).

Yeah, this one has always been slated as a Paramount+ exclusive.

Despite the series' popularity with...people like us, I don't think the numbers were where Paramount+ wanted them. It seems like they have issues with animation in general, which is a damn shame.

Choices were made.

"Explorers" doesn't contain a single reference to Sisko using a replicator during construction, but he does say, "I want to use the same types of tools the Bajorans had." He asks O'Brien for a saw, and there are several scenes in which he's seen welding pieces together.

It gets converted into another form, as in the operation of any machine. I'm not arguing that it's destroyed.

It seems that they have problems with the entire process, and want to restart on more equitable terms.

"This resolution speaks to the desired process that we see as path forward to getting the final settlement agreement back on track, to address the flaws identified by regions across the country and to create fairer, more equitable, more open, transparent process," Khelsilem, council chairperson of the Squamish Nation in B.C., told the assembly.

The resolution directs the AFN executive committee to establish a national Children's Chiefs Commission with regional representation to provide direction and oversight of the long-term reform agreement negotiations.

It also directs the AFN to postpone any votes on settlement agreements until all First Nations have had at least 90 days to review them.

Yep, raw material and a net energy loss.

The Federation might have both in abundance, but I highly doubt that much energy consumption is allowed.

Okay yeah, I fully agree that they could have started much sooner. Getting things done quickly isn't exactly the Liberals' forté.

I guess I'm not sure what you think he should have done differently?

Like, this whole situation is a mess, and there's a mix of possible "foreign influence" in play, ranging from "unsuccessful attempts" to "this person is an active foreign agent," and it's all based on classified CSIS intelligence. And these people are still elected officials, so it's there more that even could be done beyond perhaps booting them out of caucus?

Surely we can agree that the situation isn't as straightforward as we'd like it to be.
