As much as "Me Too" was supposed to be about ridding the industry of sexual harassment (and worse), it also had knock-on effects in terms of storytelling, cast composition, etc.

I don't think it's controversial to say that "Enterprise" was not terribly progressive by modern standards (or, in my opinion, the standards of the time) when it came to female representation in particular.

The difference is, unlike the Prime Directive, we want these principles to be followed.

Yet another source said the campaign has a "weird fixation" with relatively minor issues, like how the media is reporting Poilievre's rally crowd sizes. This Conservative said this should not be a concern for senior leaders like Byrne, given other issues they are grappling with.

You cannot make this up.

I just want to see Janeway's plan. She has no plan!

Meaney had always struck me as the ultimate working actor, fairly ambivalent about Star Trek beyond it being a job (which is fine).

It's hard to imagine him turning down an offer, were it too come in.

Are you the one on the left or the right?

Star Trek isn't Star Trek, but on occasion you may find that it's Star Trek.

This is not to say that the ’90s shows never delved into the complexity and nuance of this ethos—indeed, playing at the edges of their internal morality was how they derived much of their interest...Things are different in modern Trek.

If you have to include a variation of "sure, it was always like this, but it's different now," it's time to go back to the drawing board with your thinkpiece.

It tickles me that brining Shannon Fill out of retirement for a handful of lines gave her her first screen credit since 1995.

Yeah, the WGA strike is done, with 99% of its members approving the new contract.
