  • SNW: "A Space Adventure Hour" (s3e4)

    A LOATHING HOMAGE. Bryan & Kristen activate the arch and step inside Strange New Worlds stab at a holodeck mishap episode.

  • VOY: "Bride of Chaotica" (s5e12)
    Nov 18 2025
    GET AWAY, CAMP! Bryan and Kristen stumble into Tom Paris's 1930s sci fi serial adventure and find it a threat to good taste just as a species of photonic beings perceive the characters in the holodeck to be. Voyager does a black and white episode, as was the style at the time, and Kate Mulgrew gets a chance to flex an acting muscle. Is it a TREK, MARRY, or KILL? The grades begin at (15:34).

  • DS9: "Our Man Bashir" (s4e10)
    Nov 11 2025
    LICENSE TO BOND? Is this homage to James Bond our hosts' cuppa tea? Dr. Bashir becomes more interesting and a fair bit cooler putting on a tux, but it has the opposite effect on Garak, who becomes a total nag in this one. Meanwhile, a transporter accident creates a holosuite mishap that can only be solved with a Bondsian climax. The grades begin at (26:45). Learn more about your ad choices.
