Good questionSeriously, why did Ruthless whoever get banned?

I'm curious to see how it is. Honestly, I have mixed feelings about a Trek comedy, but even in the trailer, it had all sorts of little hardcore trek teasers. David Mack, my favorite trek author is a consultant on this and the new Prodigy series(also wrote some great episodes of DS9) and he has said it's packed full of Trek Lore. I have a feeling that while it will have Rock and Morty esque comedy, they will actually try to tell some meaningful stories as well. We shall find out in 2 weeks.Not to be rude but are you actually excited about this
What about it is star trek
The ship and uniform look like Trek....
But gene Roddenberry would be spinning in his grave
Exploration by enlightened humans tackling moral issues
Now they're fucking naked and tazering each other
Its one of the worlds great mysteries, like whatever happened to the evil space Bugs from season 1 of TNG, that were supposed to be coming back, but were then never mentioned againGood question

They actually originally wrote the borg to be a insect race, which is where the hive came from. In the early planning stages with Micheal Westmore, they figured out to make a convincing menacing insect, would be too expensive to create,and quickly switched to the cyborg.I'm guessing they were originally going to fill the role of an over arching threat. I suspect though even by that episode that idea had been given up on, you get the setup earlier in the season which to me seemed to be hinting at something much more prolonged then events are largely wrapped up in a single episode just with a little open end to follow up if they wanted. The fact you have the Neutral Zone as the next episode and the season finale which both brings the Romulans back and lays the first seeds of the Borg(even if they changed a lot from earlier ideas) I think suggests they'd desided to switch to those as the shows main over arching villians.

Alexander Siddig has had a fan club for years called Sid City. He has recently taken it to youtube during covid. Basically twice a week, he has an open zoom video chat with a set number of fans, and he invites fellow actors and they basically do giant Q&As and meet and greets. He has also been taking fan submissions of stories or episodes, and he will get another actor to play out the story. It's pretty cool seeing such a down to earth guy, interact and have fun with his fans.
Here's a recent episode he did with Andrew Robinson, reading a fan-submitted script
The characters in that show were so awesomely developed in the later seasons. Truly a great show.

Anyone else think the Borg Queen was hot?
