I guess we've all got the lobes today. I didn't realise it was Max's birthday either, but tonight's rewatch was DS9's "The Nagus". The first small step on Rom's journey to Nagus-hood.

Isn't it? It's my new TV obsession. I never watch two episodes in a row (unless it's new Star Trek), but I couldn't wait to see what happens next. Episode 3 on Friday is too far away!

That's probably why he's trying to shake down the BBC for 1 billion dollars. He can try, but he won't succeed.

It's my new TV obsession. Can't stop thinking about it.

The BBC belongs to us. Any threat from a foreign power, whether that be Russia, China or the United States is an attack on this country. The independence of the BBC must be defended at all costs.

I totally agree. Each movie had its problems, but they never failed to entertain, and they did usher in the current era of Trek. Pine, Quinto and Karl Urban were the perfect Kirk, Spock and Bones.

But definitely not a speaking role 😉

Lower Decks definitely raised the bar when it came to diversity. There was also the Sikh ops officer, but he was mostly just a background character.
