Will Fox at least give Bob’s Burgers a coherent airing schedule? Or did the writer’s strike cause this?

Season 14 episode 13 aired in May 2024, but the last three episodes didn’t air till September. Then immediately afterwords the following week they premiered season 15.

What kinds of blood are they using? We know there are 51 varieties.

I didn’t bring this up before because it wasn’t relevant, but we see the “All Good Things…” badge in PRO, which a conversation between Admiral Janeway and Hologram Janeway confirms was a design copied from “Endgame”.

EDIT: Which is great because if Cosermart never make a AGT uniform, I can get a PRO uniform and wear it together.

I didn’t forget (now that you mention it). I’m blocking it. That episode is a bit difficult to watch or think of for me in recent months (loss of an immediately family member).

Bonus

Picard: he became part of the past (First Contact)

Okay, what I meant was, Geordi did use one.

But yeah, this is clearly Sisko but I don’t recall him shaving his head in any scenes.

Picard: he never exceeded or failed but he was in a loop a few times (“Time Squared”, “Cause and Effect”, “All Good Things…”)

Sisko: he was always behind and sometimes stuck in the future (“Past Tense Part I and II”, “Trials and Tribble-ations”, “Children of Time”)

Janeway: she was always behind and ahead of her time and some times speeding ahead (“Future’s End Part I and Part II”, “Timeless”, “Blink of an Eye”, “Relativity”, “Endgame”)

So Wesley is Tim in this scenario. Is Barclay the Nedry?

It was Geordi. He was shaving a beard.

It actually does look like the big room in the convention center at Rio. I say this as someone who went there once last year.

Unless the Internet is lying, I’m pretty sure Darren knew Sinatra.

We just gonna forget about TAS? Season 1 is 16 episodes at 384 minutes. Season 2 is even less with 6 episodes at 144 minutes. That’s just 8 hours, 48 minutes.

 

Various ticket packages are available (which mainly include access to the park itself). Tickets start at $74 (Sunday dates), $79 (Friday dates) and $84 (Saturday dates).

If you are interested in cosplaying, the website has a list of restrictions. The ones I noted that would apply to Trekkies are no phasers, no balloons (I saw a person with balloons at STLV), or service animals in costume/part of costume (I saw this too at STLV). So please read the list before dressing up.

A big disclaimer at the top here that I am going to be discussing familial death.

Hello to everyone reading this. Not sure why I am greeting you, the reader. Last week my maternal grandfather passed away. He was in hospice care with bone cancer and overall poor health. The lead up to being admitted into hospice was a sudden and unexpected turn. During my grandfather’s final days, my family set up a computer at the foot of his bed so we could watch shows with him. Regardless if he was awake or not I took time by his side and watched Enterprise. As an important side note, I have always lived with my grandparents (I’m Filipino; this is a cultural thing).

In the week since my grandfather’s passing, I have been rewatching Enterprise. When the show first broadcast in 2001, I was 10-years-old. I grew up watching TNG, seeing First Contact and Insurrection in theaters and going on The Klingon Encounter attraction at Star Trek: The Experience in Las Vegas. For me, my grandfather was the Star Trek fan who I looked up to. I watched it because he did. So when Enterprise premiered, it was the first series I was old enough to watch in completion during its first run broadcast. I remember my grandfather being excited for “Broken Bow”. He let me stay up late on Wednesdays (and later Fridays if I recall correctly, when the timeslot changed) to watch with him.

Getting to watch Enterprise at the age of 10 to 13 (“These Are the Voyages…” aired four days before my 14th birthday) had a big impact on me. I didn’t realize till later as an adult when I finally took the time to watch all of Classic Trek and then all of New Trek (circa November 2023) how much Star Trek meant to me. You’d be hard pressed to not find me wearing a badge on a daily basis. As a Southern California resident, I drove out to Beverly Hills to attend the advanced screening of the Discovery finale in May. Then in August I finally attended my first convention: STLV.

I am writing this as my way of being reflective. Watching Enterprise with my grandfather is one of the happiest memories from my childhood. I miss my grandfather so much. Each time I watch an Enterprise episode, I feel like a kid all over. This brings me joy during a time of grief. I intimately associate Enterprise with my grandfather.

Someday in the future I want to get a tattoo of the mission patch in honor of my grandfather.

 
 

The way The Doctor is able to change appearance so quickly, jump through glass panes and that hallway wall running, scream Matrix to me.

 

Biggest take away: Wang was cast in Picard season 3, promoted to admiral, and over time cut out before production.
