i hate tom paris (hexbear.net)

he is the worst regular in all of the treks I have seen (TOS/TNG/DS9/VOY/ENT)

his whole thing is representing White american baby boomer dudes

boring as shit

doesn't belong in space

Torres can do so much better.

I don't believe this shit about being such a hot shot pilot.

I think he was sent by the CIA.

Worf's son Alexander seemed like a real little shit, ya know? I never thought about Tom Paris like that but I kinda get where you're coming from

[-] buckykat@hexbear.net 15 points 3 weeks ago

Worf was the worst father, any problems Alexander may have displayed were entirely Worf's fault

And the writers who killed K'Ehleyr. She was so cool

[-] propter_hog@hexbear.net 5 points 3 weeks ago

They would have made a great family

[-] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 3 points 3 weeks ago

I get killing her off from a dramatic perspective but they did it too early. If she'd stuck around for tng and then died in a season 4 ds9 episode it could have made Worf/Dax work better too

alexander is the best pre-teen child character they managed. compare to molly obrien. bleh.

he was a little shit but he was forced to live with Grumpy Worf so cant you see where he was coming from. correct instinct but imperfect analysis. but what's a kiddo to do?

Nog was good. He was a troublesome little shit but his father and uncle constantly talked shit about his hopes and dreams (in early seasons - Later, Rom turned out pretty chill), and he was stuck on a boring space station watched over by a racist cop and run by a racist commander. Nog had a tough childhood

Nog was also played by someone who was 25 when the show started.

Yeah, I remember. It wasn't long after the ds9 documentary came out and part of the doc was the writers getting together to break an episode concept for if the show came back for another season and they kill off nog in that. He had also just started a ds9 rewatch podcast with cirroc lofton who played Jake. It's called the 7th rule and is stilp going with rotating guests and his wife on mic

They did give Will Wheaton psychic powers so that was cool.

Star Trek Prodigy turned him into Kirkland Brand Dr. Who.

[-] CrawlMarks@hexbear.net 3 points 3 weeks ago

Did he ever do anything with them? I can't remember

[-] AnarchoAnarchist@hexbear.net 4 points 3 weeks ago

Not that I have seen, but I don't think I am caught up.

YOU TAKE THAT BACK! MOLLIE OBRIEN NAILED IT

[-] glans@hexbear.net 1 points 3 weeks ago
