Brilliant episode, with high quality acting from Mark Lenard

Currently watching the Startrek TNG episode where Picard and his officers are forced to play out robin hood by Q.

Much like how U-boat captains were ordered to do the same for Hitler!

I must protest Herr Kaleun, I am not a merry man!

Do they have the episodes online to watch anywhere? TNG took some getting used to, but the Mrs, and I would watch them in sindication every sunday night after the original ST so we had two hours of ST to enjoy.

Sorry, I liked Kirk's "space cowboy" approach.

Who what's to open the bid?

No you don't. It's Saturday, not a Tuesday, which means you instead have a Inverse Fizzbin, the worst hand possible, which requires you to spin around 3 times and sing a Klingon operetta while wearing a Ferengi mask.

Also, I'm currently watching the DS9 Episode, I think its called "The Search" where Sisko first gets the defiant and heads into the Gamma quadrant where he has to find the founders, the Defiant powers down energy to help stay undetected while the Jem'hadar 'ping' with anti proton pulses.

Deep Space Nine or deep slow nine? Or something, regarding that the first seasons of the show was not very active! DS9 has the dominion war and the brief war (or more a battle) between the klingons and the federation.
The space battles saved the show I think...and one was to wonder, what's those captains were thinking on going against enemy fleets with the shields down...

Currently a cable TV channel is transmitting the last series, Enterprise and since it's the first time here and there is noting of ST going in other channels (I'm still waiting for other channel to put the last 2 season of TNG... ) I'm watching.
I remember that this one has a lot of controversy and yes, I don’t like the "ohhh, Star Trek TOS? Never heard it!" attitude of the show.

The Dominion had weapons that pentraded the shields of just about every Alpha/Beta quadrent's race's ships, the only reason the Defiant survived was that it had lots of hull armor.
Its only mentioned two or three times so if you've blinked you've probaly missed it.

No clue why DS9s shields worked, other than Chief O'Brien is just that good at his job.

and yes I'm a recovering Star Trek Nerd. :p

Ahahahaha! I know that, I'm also a trekkie.:p
Also, manny people says that the reason the shields were off-line in the battles was because it required a lot of cgi efects, and the show couldn't do that! If it right reason, do not know.

Yes. Straight forward and tense.
