[QUOTE=Vidocq;34681]I just learned that in the TNG Episode the Offspring there were supposed to be same sex couples around the bar for Lal to see, not making a big deal out of it, they would just be there in the background, not even kissing just there and the [B]producers [/B]fought against.
What happen to you, Star Trek? You used to be cool.

WOOHOO, SFD finally reviews The Offspring, one of my favorite episodes!

In the other thread before the BBS reboot I mentioned the ill-fated Lt. Hawk from First Contact was supposed to be gay (and was in the Trek EU).

[QUOTE=John Ossie;34753]Whatever happened to the actress who played Ro Laren? I haven't heard anything about her since she left TNG. Does she even do conventions?[/QUOTE]
Wasn't she in like Season 2 of 24? If that floats your boat.

She was in 15 episodes of In Treatment, 15 episodes of True Blood, 26 episodes of the Killing, 3 episodes of BSG, 18 episodes of 24 and, apparently, has a reoccurring role on both Orphan Black and Chicago Fire.

Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens are two of my favorite authors, so I adore the Shatnerverse.

The novels have been decent lately, they're basically continuing the TNG/DS9/VOY plotlines past Nemesis. Not canon of course but some are still pretty good.
They've also fleshed out in the Lost Era series what happens between Generation's prologue and Encounter At Farpoint (TNG pilot) . Most of those books are also well done and often feature the crews of Excelsior, Enterprise B, Enterprise C and the Stargazer in this era. There's some gap novels between TOS/TMP and TMP/TWOK as well.
It's also kind of interesting how the ST movie novels also contained a lot of material that was not in the films-Star Trek II features a lot of extra background on the Genesis scientists; Search for Spock has a whole romantic storyline between David and Saavik. Even the TFF novel is interesting in that it reveals what the 'secret pains' are of the crew apart from those seen in the movie.

I read the novels. I love the post series books for TNG, DS9, Voyager and Enterprise. Also the Star Trek: Titan books were excellent as well.

[QUOTE=Vidocq;29107]The first gay kiss on TV should've been done in TNG or DS9 and not in Will and Grace[/QUOTE]
Did they beat Jadzias kiss with her ex-wife?
[QUOTE=Vidocq;33671]The Prime Directive was considerably more laxed in the 23th century, it wasn't a breach to save a planet without being seen, or you could breach it to avoid the destruction of a civilization.[/QUOTE]
Which I like a hell of a lot better than some of the 24th century "oh well, too bad for them" attitude, as much as I agree with the Prime Directive in general.

They did. The track on which the phasers fired was simply longer and there were more of them. It makes sense to have phasers on the top and bottom of the saucer, seeing as how space is a 3-D environment.

Ship designs will change over a hundred years or so :p

Thanks for the responses guys. Lol guess I don't watch as much tv as I thought. At least she's had work since TNG.
