When I watched Game of Thrones for the first time and saw the leader of the Dorns I was like OMG ITS BASHIR and my wife looked at me like I was crazy.
She never watched DS:9.

I saw him in Syriana and I yelled out DR BASHIR STILL GETTING WORK!

Networks today can't see potential, they can only see current numbers. They don't know how to let a show grow. Limitless got canned, there is no chance this makes it.

Firefly.

HBO needs to get the rights to remake Star Trek TOS.

Not everything needs to be remade

He was fucking brilliant in Syriana, I was stoked when they tapped him for GOT but think they definitely wasted his potential.

They are going to remake it at some point might as well do it right.

I think for some countries Netflix has added ALL the Star Trek TV shows to its catalog today. 531 episodes of TOS, TNG, DS9, Voyager, and Enterprise. I'm not sure about the US. All should be disappearing though from everything by end of the year, when they get moved to CBS Prime.

Also Dark Matter and Killjoys return tonight for season 2, both fantastic shows worth a watch if you like sci fi. Mr. Robot starts July 13th

its the golden age of sci fi!

I still watch Star Trek: Next Generation every now and then, something about it just shows the better side of humanity. I should have said "try to watch" because everytime it's on TV it's the "Shades of Grey" flashback episode where it's 50 minutes of Riker's sexual encounters, just copied and pasted from the previous two seasons. That was the worst hour of television I've ever seen in my life, my god.

Pfft, that episode isn't even the worst hour of television in that season of TNG:

The Outrageous Okona (episode - Memory Alpha - Wikia)

The Dauphin (episode - Memory Alpha - Wikia)

Don't get me wrong, TNG has some great shit as well, and it gets better as it goes, but for every The Inner Light or The Measure of a Man, there are 2 or 3 unwatchable turds.

Okana wasn't that bad. It was intentionally playing with the format.


But The Dauphin was a big ol turd.

That ship is fugly.

28 mins later, vid unavailable. damn.

Did the Klingon's design that ship? wtf

That looks awful. Basically like multiculturalism star trek where klingons and federation are building ships together.

Looks worse than some fan made videos. What were they thinking? Not impressed at all.

I listened to it again (with sound) and no doubt in my mind that this is like Klingons join the federation type thing. The 'Klingon' theme elements to the music are pretty obvious. I am wondering if this is the first truly mixed engineered and crewed ship.

That is some horrible CGI. My god that is bad.
