/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Meg Wyllie.

Her filmography goes from 1952 (Mr. Peepers) to 1995 (Mad About You).

It’s funny how her unnamed parts are billed as Woman and Lady until two years after The Cage, from when she’s billed as Granny or Elderly Lady.

And, Picard, if you’re doing Yep, They Were In Star Trek memes, there’s a second connection between Star Trek and The Last Starfighter; Barbera Bosson.

Edit: Scratch my last, there’s like TEN connections between Star Trek and The Last Starfighter, including Wil Weaton. Holy moly.

The only reason I knew Wheaton was in that movie was because of an interview where he said he gets a few bucks in residuals because all his speaking parts were cut.

“Shut up, Weasley.” dates back further than we thought.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver 11 points 3 months ago

Wow, I never would have found that connection.

“You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the Frontier against Xur and the Ko-Dan Armada. No other specimen has shown your adaptability. You were our last hope.”

Both characters ended up helping the main characters out. Granny knew Maggie would never be happy unless she went with Alex. And while what the Talos did to Pike was bad (but them trying to survive) their offer to him in his time of need was sort of a redemption.
