Just poker, drinking, and hanging out.

[-] DagwoodIII@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago

iirc there was an episode of MASH that was one long poker game. At the start Hawkeye comes in from the operating room and tells someone that he has to wait two hours before his patient has gotten enough blood to start operating. Players come in and out, and they keep chatting while the bombs fall.

MASH did some amazing bottle episodes. I remember watching the series back when Netflix mailed disks and really enjoying it. It held up really well.

The change that always intrigues me is that Frank Burns character.

In the original book and movie [he was played by Robert Duval] Frank is not an idiot. He's a competent surgeon. The reason the others hate him is that when a patient lives it's because Frank is a great doctor, and when a patient dies it's someone else's fault. Trapper punches him after Frank tells an 18 year old corpsman that the corpsman had killed a patient.

Winchester was overbearing and obnoxious, but he had a sense of humor and a modicum of self-awareness.

The book also tells us how Trapper got his nickname.

[-] DagwoodIII@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago

In the book and the movie, when Trapper pulls a jar of olives out of his coat.

Thank you for bringing up the term "bottle episode" again. I was trying to remember what it was called and searching was only coming up with clip episode.

Someone posted a picture of an episode of Frasier at the spa "There is a platinum door?" and I was wanting to see if that matched the bottle episode definition.

Star Trek: The Still Image

[-] PhobosAnomaly@feddit.uk 1 points 1 week ago

As long as we don't do prequels.

Babylon 4 might have a bit of a delay.

[-] nightshade@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago

Say what you will about Babylon 1-3, they went out with a bang.

People said they were daft for building a space station in a swamp.

Unironically, I think Star Trek: Away would be a fun Lower Decksian concept that covers an away team, but only while they are on mission.

The episode starts once they have left the ship (whether by transporter, shuttle or otherwise), no context, and the show builds the premise of the mission over the course of the episode. We never actually get a good view of the inside of the ship and all the nonsense that goes on there (mission related or not) has to be relayed through coms, dialogue, or the away team’s outside perspective.

I would love to see this as a series of shorts

Star Trek Deep Space 10 with Commander Sevenko

[-] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

it takes place 9000 years after the fall of the holy romulan empire and centers around an unexpected troop of teenage Borg recruits that are coming of age out of their maturation chambers.

cast is composed of

  • regiment commander 6 of 9
  • 1 of 12
  • 2 of 12
  • 3 of 12
  • 4 of 12
  • 5 of 12
  • 6 of 12
  • 7 of 12
  • 8 of 12
  • 10 of 12
  • 11 of 12
  • 12 of 12

the first episode is: "where is 9?"

the episode tag: "we don't talk about what 7 did."

At this point it would have to be animated.

I wonder if Serenity is still canon.

[-] DagwoodIII@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago

I believe they are going for a 'prequel' set in the days between the end of the show and the Serenity movie.

More will be revealed

If we're pitching Trek, can I request something that is still hopeful without being an Earth based branch of the Federation of Planets?

I've had enough Starfeet. You see what I did there. No more Trek for the sake of "the brand". Let's see episodic adventures featuring practical effects set on alien planets with situations none of us can relate to.

If you wanna shake things up, do it right.

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
