    I beg your pardon? Are you accusing me of misogyny? I trust you can provide evidence of misogynistic comments made by me?

    No. There should be a flaming gay guy. He should be a Klingon. And he should be the chef.

    It's a fabulous idea.

    Quite right. As a lawyer I find women sexually attractive and enjoy having sex with them. Sadly for you, you are not attracted to women, find sex repulsive, think porn is sinful, and can no longer get an errection.

    If you were a lawyer those problems would go away!

    I've seen Angela Bassett's name thrown around, but I have to admit that I don't really know of any roles of hers off hand that I've seen. :unsure: I'm more familiar with Rosario Dawson from her roles in Sin City and Alexander. She might make a good captain. Like I said, I just hope it's more along the lines of Kirk or Sisko than Janeway, though, I know Janeway was actually an attempt to do a female Kirk and it was a case of the people in charge having a fundamental misunderstanding of Kirk's character. :bergman:

    FYI, Rosario has a long-term contract with Marvel to be Netflix's Nick Fury*.
    *(meaning continuity glue between shows).

    Captain Archer was billed as the type of guy Kirk looked up so, and we know how that turned out. :brood:

    Beat me to it.

    Does ever Trek thread need to become about Dayton? I'm not about to defend his special brand of fucktardery, but it's the same shit over and over and over and has been since the '09 movie. :jayzus:

    Really El Chup?

    In post #7 of my thread about my proposed Star Trek episodes you didn't seem to have nearly that big a problem with them.........


    although I do concede that a number of the rest have been done similarly on some of the spin offs. Overall, much better than I expected from you. :yes:

    Kyle is doing Voyager reviews, right? So let's recruit him to review those 80 specific episodes to see if they were ALL shitty Star Trek or no.

    The best Black Woman actress, if such is the goal, for me out there is Taraji P Henson but unless something happens on Empire...

    But I hope they are just going to look for a remarkable actor of either sex and any ethnicity and let that be that. I could think of a great many names of actors I like, not all of whom I'd call remarkable actors but who have some aspect I find appealing. But I don't want them simply choosing the type (gender/ethnicity) first and then trying to cast-to-type

    Um, they are Voyager episodes. At most, 1 of them could not be shitty.

    Spirit Folk is better than any episode of TOS, IMO.

    I swear, there are times where I think you people want me dead or something.

    The Voyager list is, much like Anna said, pretty hit-and-miss. I could collate my ratings of them, but, eh, that sounds like effort, and right now, I'm busy reviewing a show in which people make speeches about gazelles. I would, however, point out that Fuller's solo outings with Pushing Daisies and Hannibal were top-notch, so I wonder how much lemonade he was making from lemons on Voyager.

    FTFY. A good episode of Voyager is like saying that the diarrhea you had tonight was better compared to the previous night, because you only filled one bowl.
