TOS Sex Scoreboard - ep 15 - 22 A few new enteries on this update Kirk 3 new +1 ep 15 new +1 ep20 Bones 1 new +1 ep 1 Spock 0 Extra: Khan +1 McGivers +1 The episodes done since the last rumpin-humpin count was not blue-balled-tease-time. There was some action. Ep 15 Kirk scores with an old flame though it is fake Ruth but still counts. Bones is an interesting call. We definitely give a +1 with a private examination of yeoman Barrows. Yes off screen but clearly it was going to happen. And given the look on her face at the end when they where leaving the planet after the couple of days, we have no doubt she felt Boned up close and personal. Now the question is, did Bones score a double also? When Bones comes back up from inside the planet after "dying" to the surface he has 2 fun girls on his arms. He thought about them, they appeared, but was there a feather flying 3 way. We have decided no but if he did, Bones would have nailed the highest scores in a single ep up to this point with a 3 banger (the +2 fun girls, then a +1 Barrows). Tough call. Ep 20 Kirk strikes again with an old flame. The JAG lawyer had to explain the legal definition of obscene behavior to Kirk, so a personal example must have been given. Kirk may have been found not guilt by the Court’s Martial but guilty and handcuffed in the eyes of Areel after. I am sure multiple full body searches were done and Kirk did have a deadly weapon. Ep 21 Khan steals the show with a +1. McGivers was a true Mac-giver to the one and only Khan. Of course Khan took her on the FULL tour of Fantasy Island. Luckily there was no Tattoos showing because that would have been awkward (wonder how many get that reference da Plane, da plane).

2024-11-24 22:08:46 +0000 UTCAlex looked more invested in that fight between Khan and Kirk than any other action scene thus far. I guess being into wrestling it's just his kind of thing. The most surprising part of that scene though is that Kirk's shirt remained intact🤣. In general they do a good job selling just how strong Khan is. 5x human strength is more than half again as strong as a Vulcan. I wouldn't want to fight him. Excellent episode overall. Ricardo Montalban wasn't just jacked, he had some serious acting chops. His performance sells Khan as cunning, manipulative, intimidating, but at the same time charismatic. Especially seeing how Kirk and Scotty admired him despite his regime being antithetical to the federation. I feel bad for McGivers in a way. There's no way to let what she did slide, but at the same time she was kind of a loner who didn't have the willpower to resist Khan, and he saw that and used her to get what he wanted. Really though, it always bothered me how careless the crew was. Knowing who Khan is and what's he's about, there were far too few precautions takes. First off if you're posting guards to his room, they're to keep him in, not others out. Post them facing the door from across the corridor, and have like 4 of them there. And how does none of the bridge crew notice the transporters being used? The one that really bothered me though was letting him study the ship schematics. Is nothing classified in the 23rd century? Still, classic episode with a classic villain.

2023-02-27 19:48:09 +0000 UTCClassic Trek had many showrunners, and for 40 years they all remained true to the original vision of the two Genes (Roddenberry and Coon.) That made all of it a consistent body of work. Gene Roddenberry: TOS season 1 Star Trek The Motion Picture TNG season 1 Gene Coon: TOS seasons 1 and 2 Fred Frieberger: TOS season 3 Dorothy Fontana: TAS Harve Bennett: Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan Star Trek III: The Search for Spock Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home Star Trek V: The Final Frontier Maurice Hurley: TNG season 2 Leonard Nimoy: Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country Rick Berman: TNG seasons 3-7 Star Trek: Generations Star Trek: First Contact Star Trek: Insurrection Star Trek: Nemesis Michael Piller: TNG seasons 3-5 DS9 seasons 1-3 VOY seasons 1&2 Jeri Taylor: TNG season 7 VOY seasons 1-4 Ira Steven Behr: DS9 seasons 4-7 Brannon Braga: VOY seasons 5&6 ENT seasons 1-4 Kenneth Biller: VOY season 7 Manny Coto: ENT season 4

2023-02-27 18:18:26 +0000 UTCAlso keep in the back of your minds that some of what is shown in TAS (for a long time not considered canon, but that has changed dramatically in recent years as material from it is in many newer live-action 'Trek shows) is used in later movies and sequel 'Trek series.... and some of that material is quite basic to TOS and the overall 'Trek universe. And, it's just plain FUN to hear those references which fill in lots of answers we always used to ask about - until they were seen/heard in TAS and the sequel movies and other series'. It's a huge tapestry that is so rich to mine, they are still creating stories based upon TOS!

2023-02-26 23:59:15 +0000 UTCTotally up to you. It's meant to be a 5th season to TOS (TAS being the 4th), completing Kirk's 5 year mission. However it has slight easter eggs of the other shows in there, which you can only appreciate after already having seen some of TNG and the others. (there's actors from the other shows appearing for example) And of course if you watch it when it was actually made... by that time you haven't seen the original Enterprise in a while, so it'll be quite the nostalgia trip for you then, just like it was for us, when it came out. So lore wise it can make sense to watch it between the show and the movies, but if you want to save it as some nostalgia for later.. that works too. However I highly recommend you do watch it for the channel at some point. It's well wroth it.

2023-02-26 23:33:23 +0000 UTCYeah we’ve heard plenty about it. I’m sure it’s good. We might watch it at some point, but we are watching Star Trek in release order so even if we did watch it for the channel it wouldn’t be between TAS and the movies as that wouldn’t really make sense with how we are watching.

2023-02-25 17:54:49 +0000 UTCApologies if you've already gave an answer to this somewhere: After TOS (and TAS?), do you intend on watching Star Trek Continues? If you haven't heard of it, Continues is often considered to be the fan series that rivals the original. Running for 11 episodes which depict the end of Kirk's 5-year mission, Continues features a professional cast and crew, prominent sci-fi alum as guest stars (from Doctor Who, Buck Rogers, The Expanse, etc.), and the endorsement of Rod Roddenberry. Its second episode - "Lolani" - is up there as having some of the very best writing in the franchise. Most of its other episodes are no slouch either - especially the finale which leads right into The Motion Picture. It's a little weird for the first 10-15 minutes watching TOS with different actors, but it's well worth it.
