the so-called “First Lady of Star Trek” recorded an entire library of phonetic sounds, allowing her voice to be used in future products outside of Star Trek and, quite possibly, as the computer voice in Star Trek: Discovery.

Alternatively…

Lizard babies, space cheese that makes the ship sick, yeah, I could see this going down in VOY.

I thought I was above enjoying all of the really campy episodes, but apparently not. I thoroughly enjoyed “Rascals” just for the Guinan / Ro Laren sass.

If they took Subspace Rhapsody to Broadway, I would happily make that my first show.

and That Puppet Episode

I was ambivalent about “Those Old Scientists” and bringing the LD cast in as live-action characters. Ended up loving it.

I was ambivalent about “Subspace Rhapsody” and a musical episode in general. Also loved it.

I was initially ambivalent about the puppet episode, but if history is anything to go by, bring it on.

lol. My guess would be either really, really long and covers every possible scenario or extremely short and brutally honest.

T’Rinity

Lol, that would certainly make the station regulations much more concise.

Other than the alternate timeline Ed Begley Jr Odo from “Children of Time”, I dare say this is the happiest we ever see him.

It’s disappointing there are no resident cosplayers in that lounge area. Would be amazing for recording some low-budget fan works.

Jonathan Frakes just seems like an all-around great guy. Combine that with a well-written character, and it’s no wonder Riker is such an icon.

That, and they’ve clearly never watched DS9. I think the (mostly) dark and seriousness of it is why I like it so much.

I was initially hesitant about DS9 because I was like “how are they, on a stationary space station, going to compete with the Federation flagship?” Was never so glad to be proven wrong.

I loved PIC S3 and definitely seeing Ro Laren again, but yeah, I did notice the makeup was a lot more subtle than in her TNG appearances.

Now I wonder if it was always supposed to be that subtle but had to be “exaggerated” a bit back then to show up on older TVs. Kind of like how the Addams Family set was mostly pink so it appeared correctly on old black and white TV sets.

Benjamin Sisqó

It had to be done. I apologize for nothing.

Announced today during Trek‘s blockbuster Hall H panel at San Diego Comic-Con, Jordan Canning (who directed season 2’s “Charades”, but perhaps more crucially here, also directed seven episodes of the Fraggle Rock revival, Back to the Rock) will direct an episode in the upcoming fourth season of Strange New Worlds that will see the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise turned into puppets. Anson Mount’s Captain Pike beamed into the convention to let fans know… well, kind of

…

Nothing else was revealed about the episode, other than the fact Paramount will be working with the fine purveyors of puppet technology at the Jim Henson Creature Shop to bring Pike and the rest of the crew to fabric life for the episode.

That’s basically me. I watched it, though, lol, but mostly because the premiere is far enough away that I probably won’t remember half of it come July anyway. Otherwise, I’m pretty rigorous about avoiding spoilers of any sort and is why I wasn’t really around when everyone was talking about Academy when it was airing (have since watched and enjoyed it though).

Cool, thanks!

As a con virgin, any highlights for what it’s like? Do you just walk around the venue and chat with other fans? Stand in line for autographs/photo ops? Shop for merch? Do the guests do talks or Q&As?

Like I said in my other comment, I’m seriously considering attending this one since it’s close and I really would like to add and cross this off my bucket list. Also, like you said, I don’t particularly care for massive events or extended travel to Vegas so a regional one that’s also pretty close to me sounds perfect.

They have already started announcing celebrity guests as well. Today Creation revealed the headliners will include Kate Mulgrew (VOY/PRO), Jeri Ryan (VOY/PIC), Terry Farrell (DS9), Nana Visitor (DS9), Denise Crosby (TNG), and Melissa Navia (SNW). Additional guests for the event will be announced each day this week.

I’ve never been to a convention, but Philadelphia is (relatively speaking) right next door to me. I’m seriously considering saving some vacation time and making this my first because I really want to go to one and they’ve got the most powerful women in the galaxy lined up.
