/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.

Putting together a playlist for the weekend, please give me your best suggestions. Trying to get at least one episode from the five OG series.

No, I will not be considering the one where Beverley bones a ghost.

TOS: Catspaw. No question there. Catspaw is basically the Star Trek Halloween Special.

TNG: Night Terrors

DS9 is a difficult one because I can't think of a real episode that would fit, but maybe Hard Time just because of the horrific situation O'Brien is put in?

Voyager: Nowhere near my favorite episode, but The Haunting of Deck 12 seems like the best option.

Enterprise: Don't have a good suggestion for you there. Enterprise episodes slip out of my memory quickly. Sorry, Enterprise fans.

Edit: I missed this part-

No, I will not be considering the one where Beverley bones a ghost.

What if I told you that the ghost also boned her grandma? And Beverly was into the idea?

Empok Nor in season 5 is a good candidate, it has some horror vibes.

DS9 you could also do Whispers. It’s the one where OBrien gets replaced by a replicant but he thinks everyone else is replaced. Nothing like a good body snatcher episode.

Waltz is also a good one. Dukat and Sisko alone with Dukat slowly going insane.

DS9 5x24 Empok Nor - spooky "abandoned" station exploration in order to get some desperately needed spare parts for the station

@[email protected] said the same thing and I think that's a much better call than mine.

For TNG I'd suggest Identity Crisis. That one freaked me out more than any Trek I can recall.

wolf in the fold, night terrors, empok nor, the thaw, Impulse.
