- Comment on Giveaway! Win your Steam Copy of the 'Captain’s Edition' of Star Trek: Resurgence! 1 day ago:
I’m looking forward to having a Star Trek game that sounds like it has the feel of Star Trek! I’ve been waiting for the Steam release, and I’m curious to see what it’s like.
- Comment on Master Replicas Ending Star Trek Starship Sales on June 15 4 days ago:
One can always hope! While Star Trek collectibles are often expensive, they are something I’m willing to dig up the money for!
- Comment on Master Replicas Ending Star Trek Starship Sales on June 15 5 days ago:
They are generally really good quality, especially the XL ships. I did get a few of the smaller ships, but I wasn’t as impressed with them. They generally feel and look cheaper, there’s just not as much detail.
- Comment on Master Replicas Ending Star Trek Starship Sales on June 15 5 days ago:
I got an email from them on this. Sad that they’re not doing it anymore, but I was able to get all of the ships I really wanted! I would still like the 1701-A, 1701-C, and DS9 all in XL, but I just can’t justify the cost right now.

That’s sad. While I didn’t enjoy every aspect of it, I quite enjoyed it overall. I’m happy to hear season 3 isn’t supposed to be the last for SNW though.

I definitely appreciate when companies do that. I don’t currently have any streaming subscriptions and I generally keep it that way! Until Strange New Worlds S3 comes out!
- Comment on All 10 TOS And TNG Star Trek Movies Exit Paramount+ For Max And HBO (Again) 4 months ago:
They always have been good with that, I have most of the Star Trek that I watch on physical media, especially if there’s steelbooks! Maybe there’s been something announced that I haven’t seen though. Or they could just be talking about physical media in general.

Good to hear! I’ve been watching your game for a while and just waiting until it arrived on Steam. Just wishlisted!
- Comment on Star Trek Resurgence Giveaway 5 months ago:
First of all, thanks for the giveaway!
My first Star Trek game was actually Star Trek Online, but I’ll probably always have a soft spot for Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - Crossroads of Time for the SNES.
I’m definitely happy to see Resurgence coming to Steam though, I don’t buy from anyone except for them and GOG.

Great news! I will admit to having too many Eaglemoss ships, but I’m hoping Fanhome makes some great looking ships too. It never hurts to have a few more!
- Comment on Star Trek: Discovery | Final Season Exclusive Clip (CCXP 2023) | Paramount+ 5 months ago:
I’ve made it until the end of S2, and that’s taken me several years. I decide that it’s just not the show for me and stop watching, but every now and then I forget that and try another episode! Then the cycle repeats.
I do like some aspects of it, including the ship itself. I don’t like the rotating saucer though.
- Comment on Jonathan Frakes Returning To Direct For ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Season 3 5 months ago:
That’ll be exciting! We’ll all have to put our heads together and give him a list of episodes to adjust a bit, and maybe we’ll have five or six seasons of TOS.
- Comment on Jonathan Frakes Returning To Direct For ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Season 3 5 months ago:
I’m glad I’m here, you learn something new every day! The next thing you’ll be telling me is that he also gave Rodenberry the idea for the series, therefore guaranteeing himself a role for 7 years.
- Comment on Jonathan Frakes Returning To Direct For ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Season 3 5 months ago:
Nothing on TOS either.
- Comment on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 2 Arrives on DVD, Blu-ray, and 4K UHD December 5 7 months ago:
Yup, an instant buy. Watching these episodes in 4k is great.
- Comment on Star Trek executive producer wants more Strange New Worlds episodes, and I’m nervous 8 months ago:
I would be very happy to see 15 episodes a year, I think their current cast is great. They’ve expanded the story of some of the characters in season 2, but I feel they could easily add a few more spotlight episodes a year.
- Comment on What Star Trek Mannerism or Phrase Do You Often Use 9 months ago:
That’s great! I didn’t realize how common my eyebrow raise was until someone asked if I was copying Spock. My wife is still convinced I practice and do it on purpose though.
- Comment on What Star Trek Mannerism or Phrase Do You Often Use 9 months ago:
I tend to do the Spock eyebrow raise quite a bit without thinking about it, to the point that people I know will ask if it’s on purpose.
I also will use “fascinating” and I tend to insert logical or illogical into sentences.
Worf’s “It is not funny, but I get it” is something I throw in as well.
If I’m in “Star Trek Mode” I’ll use various Klingon phrases, along with the Vulcan salute as greeting. My wife and I will at times text in Klingon. There’s other stuff as well, but not as common!

“Star Trek Below Decks”
- Comment on Which particular episode(s) of Star Trek do you find yourself going back to? 9 months ago:
That’s a tough one! Off the top of my head, I’d say the following:
TOS: The Doomsday Machine
TNG: The Offspring
DS9: Duet - Probably my favorite episode of any ST series.
LD: First First Contact
SNW: Memento Mori - I’ve only seen S1, hoping to watch S2 soon.
I’ve not watched much of TAS, VOY, ENT and PRO, so I didn’t mark them down.
DIS: ??? - I’ve seen up to S3 so far, but no particular episode that really sticks out unfortunately. Probably something in S2.
PIC: ??? - I’ve only watched S1, unfortunately no favorites.
I’ve got a lot of favorites, but these are the ones I probably most enjoy. It can change depending on the day though! There’s been a lot of really good episodes through the years.
- Comment on Star Trek legend Jonathan Frakes says TNG cast were “Rude” on set 9 months ago:
I’ve thought about editing some of those into my copies of the episodes and then hopefully surprising myself the next time I watch them!
