SNW, post Pike, is TOS.

Yeah, we really don't need that.

Or, it's the old Toxic Masculinity thing of a man being able to "sow his wild oats", but his woman must be chaste. With what we now know about Whedon, that's as good a bet as any. Edit - There's a reunion panel show that they did, in which the cast spoke about where their characters' arcs were...

And yet it gave women agency over their own bodies. While Mal had convinced himself that it was about not liking people having to literally sell themselves to survive, it was more likely just his own jealousy.

After a long drought it was something we fans really looked forward to, but it just barely scratched the itch for me. It was nice to see the new Enterprise, but they could have easily shaved minutes off the run-time by cutting it back, without sacrificing anything. Other than that it was...

Same. I was introduced to Kaiju, in 1969, by a friend who was a recent immigrant from Japan. We watched "Ultraman" on a US VHF station. He showed me his hundreds of magazines, that I couldn't read, while he translated the articles for me. He showed me the toys he had, the likes of which simply...

Best stay out of that interdimensional corridor.

I'm going to disagree here, but from a slightly different angle. I have several hobbies that I do for pleasure, that would be at least partially spoiled by doing them for income, but people keep telling me to set up an Etsy shop and take commissions. I've done a couple of commission jobs for...

That's why I referred to it as "seasoning." You're right that trying to make the whole thing comedy would be a mistake. "Lower Decks" only works (For me, anyway) because of all the more serious Trek.

There are a goodly number of historically accurate holster types that do leave the butt clear, but military holsters tended to have a protective flap. Sometimes people would just get a surplus holster and then cut the flap off. Which was also a thing people did. Or just stick the gun in their...

"Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home" would be a good example of Star Trek being seasoned with comedy. "Where can i find the nuklear wessels?"

Quite. And Hollywood has had people (sometimes literally) running around in them for more than 100 years now.

After making that Buscadero style holster and belt I now understand why it wasn't actually used in the Old West. It would be useless on a horse. You're never going to be able to walk quickly in one, let alone run, as that "gunfighter" leg tie is wildly impractical for daily use. Looks OK...

It's very good. It gives the sort of behind the scenes stuff that reminds me of podcasts that were previously done by writer and actor friends in the Pacific Northwest. It has the kind of intimacy that I don't expect from people with their credentials, but is still in keeping with their public...

Currently listening to the second episode of Alan Tudyk and Nathan Fillion's podcast "Once We Were Spacemen" on Youtube. Second episode and their guest is Jewel Staite.

Big "Leave Brittany alone!" vibe.

If they (and I) have never heard that before, then I suppose yes?

That's a good question. Based on when it's supposed to happen, as it was in TOS, it would be a bit of a time skip to get to it. That said, they have played more than a little fast & loose with that timeline anyway.
