/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.

@jawa21@startrek.website for realizing that the line used to be "want to be added to the sidebar?" and capitalized on it. Congratulations and welcome to the sidebar. Stamets is both ashamed and proud.

While not as big as your examples, I think Matt Frewer is similarly affiliated and his TNG episode turned out ok. I think it could be done, with the right script.

I agree the script matters and maybe it could be done without being sucky. Not that I don't love Cage but... I think Fewer is a bit better actor. Maybe not to quite the level of disappearing into the role like some do but still.

I think Michelle Yeoh was pretty well known by the time Discovery arrived and beyond initial recognition I kind of forgot all about who was behind the character. Likewise I forgot all about Whoopie Goldberg, it was just Guinan. (Maybe give Cage an iconic hat? Lol) David Ogden Stiers did well right? (I don't remember that episode very well).

I'm not sure if it would be as easy to blend Cage into a show.

I like your hat idea! :D
