I'm still impressed McNeill was able to say, "Yes, ma'am, his army of evil," with a straight face.

M'Benga still wears blue. Chapel wears white, but she's also a civilian contractor in SNW and hasn't joined Starfleet yet, so how her uniform color interacts with everyone else is unclear.

Seems bland as hell on the surface, but hiding a spicy side.

Also, there was just something about it that felt like a re-hash of an actual TNG episode, but I can’t pin down which one.

"Homeward," the episode where Worf's adoptive brother evacuates a pre-warp species to a new planet because theirs is dying using the Enterprise's transporters and holodeck to make them think they're just traveling over land to a new place. It's almost exactly the plan for moving the Ba'ku.

I am part of the group that thinks Insurrection was not just bad as a movie, but bad as a plot line all together. Literally everything about the Ba'ku-Son'a conflict falls apart at the slightest scrutiny.

Season 3 has a ton of problems, but it's still a much better send off for the TNG crew than Nemesis was, and that's good enough for me.

I still think this would have been better with VOY sets for the background than TNG sets.

They didn't want to fire her, but she did want to quit. She wasn't happy with the direction they were taking her character. I wouldn't be surprised if she also had issues with the same guy McFadden did. Jadzia was killed off because Berman wouldn't let Farrell switch to being a recurring rather than a regular, which may be what you're thinking of.

I still think there should be a show that opens with Jadzia and Shaw on the Black Mountain. Call it Star Trek: Revenants or something.

Something to consider with those two images is that they're different angles. Your first image is of the underside of the ship, while the second is the top of the ship.

Also, the texturing and nacelles are different between the two, but the body and saucer seem to be structurally the same. Still a long-boi even with the slightly shorter nacelles.

That's clearly a yellow beam, making Worf a Jedi Sentinel.

The Excelsior-class is one of my favorites. A bit wonky from a top-down view, but gorgeous from every other angle.

The Sovereign-class continues the general aesthetic of the Excelsior, but for the TNG-era design style and fixing the problem with high angle views.

The Valdore-type warbird from Nemesis is probably the best thing about that movie.

The Klingon D4 from Into Darkness is similarly one of the better things from that movie.

The NX-class Refit is also just shockingly pretty. Makes the original look incomplete.

Not canon, but I love the original “Long-boi” Discovery design. It gives off some very cool art-deco retro-futurism vibes. Not very classically “trek” but I love it nonetheless!

That is the canon design for the Discovery before the far future refit it got.

The film cost them $72 million to make, so this is a $42 million loss. If they actually released the movie they probably would have at least broke even. I have a hard time seeing it not making more than they just wrote off.

I think the police state was their solution to infighting in much the same way that Surak's faction took up a quasi-religious adherence to logic.

Alternatively, do what they did with Bashir and suddenly reveal that he replaced Bradward at some indeterminate point during season 4.

I'm pretty sure he was also the only command division officer on the bridge after they gave him command. At least in theory, due to differences in training, a lieutenant jg from the command track may be better suited for acting captaincy than a full lieutenant from science, especially with a decidedly non-sciency mission like flinging a warship at a wall. You need that dash of crazy that Starfleet's command officers tend to have.

The quote from Sputnik he read was especially memorable.

Would be weirder if he inexplicably lived.

I always headcanoned that Rom was very quickly fired after DS9…

As Grand Nagus, I don't think there's anyone higher up to fire him. The position is a weird cross of king, CEO, and Pope. Only death or resignation seems to be able to oust a Grand Nagus.

And just like Worf's backbone, it's dramatic when it breaks, but it'll be good as new by next episode.
