Rom inspired his son to enter into a very successful career, just probably not in the way he would have liked. Then Nog inspired Rom to change career tracks and become a station engineer, so I guess it all worked out.

I mean, you could just pay YouTube for their services and get Premium.

Janeway and Paris get it on.

It also removes an emphasis on any one particular planet’s day or year.

That’s not that prick Lewis Zimmerman, it’s that prick Richard Woolsey.

The last scene is a little heavy handed with its foreshadowing, but it’s one of my favorite bottle episodes.

The signature at the bottom of the letter makes it all make sense.

I was going to propose prisoner of war Bashir as a third picture.

He can commiserate with his department head in Ten Forward later.

George Takei killed it in his role in Yakuza: Like a Dragon. (Literally and figuratively, he played a hitman-come-mob boss and a father figure to the game’s protagonist.) I wish he had more screen time in the role.

That’s how you avoid getting output like ++?????++ Out of Cheese Error. Redo From Start.

He directed and guest stared in the 100th episode of Voyager, “Timeless,” where Geordi had been promoted to captain of the USS Challenger 15 years in the future. 100 is an important milestone episode, so you know the show runners has confidence in him as a director to assign him that episode.
