They need to make a show about the YTMND version "Pacard" where he has dreadlocks and lives the island lifestyle, man.
Yes Jamaica we have a bobsled team!

I know, but in the early episodes (and possibly later on) he gives off the vibe that at any moment he could snap and start shooting up the station. I think the cast of DS9 will take me a while to get back into, I mostly remember Garak so it was a surprise to find out that he's only in 40 or so episodes.
Archer is kind of an asshole. Sisko has anger issues, and struggles with them.
They keep dropping hints that he was a hothead in the Academy. Not a thrill seeker like Picard before the transplant, but a real hothead.

I know Archer was written as a bit of a dick in some episodes but I could never buy into Scott Bakula as Captain Asshole. More like slightly too-nice teacher who overcompensates by blowing up when the kids finally wear his patience down.
Avery Brooks seems like the real deal, and I kinda respect that. The acting profession is full of insincere suckups from what I gather so it's lol if true that he acted like Daddy Big Balls on set and made people call him MISTER Brooks.
Imagine if he was on the set of Discovery.
Worse, he was a good 'ol boy.

I liked Voyager, it was at least consistent in its mediocrity with a few spikes of great episodes. It is a mess though.
Voyager is one of those shows that I think the TNG fans despise disproportionately to the rest of the Trek fans floating around. Even DS9 fans seem to unconsciously acknowledge that Voyager was a neccesarily evil to keep the producers distracted and allow DS9 to have an actual plot and characters instead of the soap opera shit Voyager was devoured by.
Voyager's problem relative to TNG is that its not deep and intellectual enough. Or at least its not percieved to be. As I mentioned before TNG definitely had its sillier aspects and the idea that it was way more sophisticated than even TOS is mostly an internet thing. While TNG's good episodes are leagues above anything Voyager could manage, the truth is that Voyager's average episodes are about on par with TNG's average episodes. Though this is more a product of quantity than quality. Its basically just TNG 2: With A Younger Cast.
Where did you hear Avery was an asshole? I know he was somewhat reluctant to do it, but Ive never heard of him being an outright ass.
That is Lloyd my man. Him and Shatner did a buddy comedy with some chick romance that came out this year.Help me out here. Is that Christopher Lloyd, or Hulk Hogan?

Joanne Linville , who played the Romulan Commander in The Enterprise Incident, has died.
That was the best episode out of that season.

I personally like *some* of the CGI effects for the remastering. For example; when the Enterprise orbited a planet, they replaced the orange or green video blob with a semi decent looking actual planet. But yes, I wholly agree they do not jive well with the 1960s set production values....

The doc touched on this a little. He likes to wrong-foot people and throw them off.
Chase Masterson tells a story (on the DVD) about Avery ignoring her real name and calling her "Cathy", the character she plays in a NordicTrack infomercial.

How about the time warp from the end of "Tomorrow is Yesterday"?
CGI: Warp around the sun
OG: "I have to go now, my planet needs me."
People are too thin skinned these days. that doesn't sound that bad.
Some episodes have objectively better SFX, like The Trouble With Tribbles and The Ultimate Computer. Others like The Doomsday Machine are incredibly bad (the Planet Killer looks awful). Even so I find myself missing the fuzzy planet SFX the most of all when I rewatched the show in HD.
In the show's defense, traveling at supreluminal speeds around the sun kind of wouldn't look like much. The CGI version is much more dramatic but its also sillier since literally nothing would be able to survive basically grazing the corona of a sun like that
Not gonna lie that sounds hilarious. I'm getting shades of the "William Fucking Shatner" story where Shatner was infamously a dick to Will Wheaton for seemingly no reason the one time he was on the set of TNG, but in retrospect the incident comes off as suspect since Wheaton has shown himself to be such a fuckface in the mean time that you have to wonder if Shatner had a good reason to tell him off back then.
In Brooks's case its hard to tell if the other actors were primadonnas or not or if it was just him who was being the primadonna. The way he's distanced himself from the franchise too is interesting; did he really have that low of an opinion on it, or does he just not want that role to take over his personality as has happened with other actors who did famous shows?
I've read before that Brooks can be a massive diva so I'm willing to bet it's him.
With how insane most star trek franchise actors have turn out to be. One has to wonder with the stories of Shatner and Brooks acting like assholes to a certain actors who would later proved to be assholes themselves. One has to wonder if those were justified incidents.
Fuck, this DeForrest Kelly video is great.
