Ahhh, Sybok, many fans of Star Trek hate you as much as many Star Wars fanboys hate Jar-Jar Binks. Brought to life through a few sketchy and debatable details that sent many a Trekkie … more

It is difficult to understate the significance of the Uhura character in television and society, both generally and specifically. Up until that time, the general role of black women on television … more

Nurse Chapel was too much the traditional love-sick female character to be all that worthy of inclusion in the series. She uttered an occasional fluttery line about problems and McCoy had to firmly … more

The character of Tasha Yar as security chief was a strong one that should have continued. There was one episode where she was a member of a team engaged in an extremely physical contest and Worf was … more

Let's just be clear, I am not a trekkie nor have I ever been a trekkie, and this film did not make me a trekkie, but that didn't stop me from enjoying this reboot of the franchise. The acting … more

Evolution exists or it doesn't to some people and if you showed this episode to a non-believer it will certainly ENSURE they won't change sides and could entertain them. Some people find … more

This is one of those episodes that is wonderful for a Trek fan. It filled in an important story piece for Trek's history and on top of that it offered a change of pace for the show. … more

Very few people will defend the second season of TNG as a masterpiece but many will argue that the series did at least get a footing here. Much like the first season there were good episodes and … more

If there was a neglected character on TNG, most people would say it's Troi, but oh no, it's Crusher. The Enterprise D's lovely auburn haired doctor didn't get many episodes devoted … more

Star Trek The Next Generation may have been a landmark show but looking at it's first two seasons, you wouldn't know that. While things improved slightly in season two before going into … more

No one likes clip shows. Even if the clips are good, all it reminds you of why you couldn't be watching the episodes the clips came from instead of the clip show. It's not even like … more

"You will make an episode with great characters and performances then leave out something important"
Another one of those classic Trek episodes that everyone knows about-the one with the insane man who comes aboard and knows something evil is going on down below on the benevolant planet. The head … more

Star Trek (2009) re-ignited the Trek world and set it on fire. Loved it or hated it, no one can deny what a reboot and shot in the arm it was for what was a tired series. The worst thing that … more
