The Gang Commits Some Light Treason (Star Trek III: The Search for Spock)
V'Ger Please!
The amazing, fantastic Wrath of Khan is followed up by...a kinda cheap, sloppy retcon? Sadly that is the case as we review "ST III: The Search for Spock" ! While the crew pulls off the prototype 'Starfleet has no security' heist, Doc Klingon Brown and his lads show up for some Cold War allegory.

War Crimes are No Jokes (DS9 S1 : E19 "Duet")
V'Ger Please!
We set (most) of the comedy aside as we go deep on one of Trek's strongest dramatic entries as we review "Duet"! When Kira encounters a man who may be the Bajoran equivalent of Rudolph Hess, she is faced with the kind of complex moral questions that transcends Trek as a medium. Come on the journey with us!

Starfleet 911, Please State Your Emergency (DS9 S1: E18 "Dramatis Personae")
V'Ger Please!
What fresh brain jacking hell will be birthed from the highway of death this time as we watch "Dramatis Personae"? Well we lose our minds a bit as we consider the sheer madness of the Gamma Quad and lament another bad plot, but at least Peter gets to ruminate on the Naughty Kira possibilities.

Dangerous Elevator Confessions (DS9 S1 : E17 "The Forsaken")
V'Ger Please!
The mother-in-law all of us fear but none of us deserve drops in to the local DOOM level in "The Forsaken". Between the half baked A and C plots, you know an episode is bad when the Lwaxana Troi is the best part. Is the Odo backstory worth the price of admission? Come find out!

If Wishes Were Whores (DS9 S1 : E16 "If Wishes Were Horses")
V'Ger Please!
I know what you are thinking. You see the title, and you look down on us. But you shouldn't, because we reviewed "If Wishes Were Horses"! Witness as just too many insane things happen to even bother trying to preview, from esoteric baseball continuity, to...emus?

Get Self Sealing Stem Bolts or Die Tryin' (DS9 S1 : E 15 "Progress")
V'Ger Please!
We get a delightful A plot/B plot sandwich as we review "Progress"! When Bajor ends up doing some Horace Greedly level planetary strip mining, Kira has to face off against her most vicious for to date - an extremely charming old man. Meanwhile Jake shows Nog the art of the hustle and the value of property rights.
