Here's my weekly post on the new upcoming ep -

This one, I'm looking forward to!

I can't wait to have Seven kick serious 'Rock' Butt !! (Not that I'm a WWF fan anyways)

Here are some shots from the ep.

I've only seen part of the trailer .. and getting it from Continuum has been difficult ..

Anyone have the whole story behind this one?

Actually, the ring looks a heck of lot like the Stellar Cartography set from Generations.

"This one, I'm looking forward to!"

Yeah, can't wait for a huge WWF commercial. Although we'll see how it turns out.

You misunderstand...I was talking about the episode itself.

Y'know what might make this episode worthwhile? If, instead of fighting, Seven merely assimilates all her opponents. That would be okay... :-)

They obviously don't get sentimental, especially with their space and money constraints.

The Rock is in this episode for five minutes, saith Robert J. Doherty. How come no one realises that doesn't make this a commercial for the WWF?

Oh! And the difference between the violence in "Tsunkatse" and "By Inferno's Light" is...? (Neither Worf nor Seven want to fight, but they sort of have to in order to accomplish something: survival.)

I can't believe that Hirogen is J.G. Herletzer!

Yeah, but the fighting in "In Inferno's Light" was a little more essential to the story, and a little better written. Jem"hadar warriors fight the inmates to entertain themselves. It was intresting to see the jem'hadar in thi way, it enhanced both worf's character as well as our understadning of the jem'hadar and the dominion. This voyager epsiode is just a chance to see seven in even more derogitory clothing in a vain attempt to increase Voyager's sagging ratings. DS9 wrote good stories to get more viewers, Voyager has to be sexist.

Obviously you refuse to cooperate with me. Obviously you have no discipline to kepp the mouth shut. Obviously you don't. Let's try it that way, then you might get the hint. How many more minutes are we going to waste asking you not to talk? How many more!?!

I really don't think you should be commenting on the writing before it airs. You know only the basic outline of the story based on spoilers, etc. The episode may reveal a more detailed scenario. And is trying to capitalize on the fame of the WWF really such a wrong idea? It's not as if this is going to happen every week. And excuse the pun, but like all other TV, Star Trek is still an enterprise.

Having not seen "Tsunkatse" yet (unless you have special privileges somehow), how can you say this?

And wait... more essential to the story? In "Tsunkatese", this is the story, while that in "By Inferno's Light" was almost a subplot.

Sagging ratings? Not at all. Ratings are equivalent to last year with less coverage over the U.S. That means more people are watching the show per capita. And, again, if you were to do the math for Voyager's ratings compared to DS9's (On fair ground! Meaning same national coverage percentage, multiple viewings in areas, the canceled UPN shwoings which just reduce the overall ratings, etc.), I'm certain the difference would be negiligeable.

Really? If I wanted to, I could call some things on DS9 sexist. But seeing as I like the show, I don't particularly want to try to. And I still don't see how this is a sexist show...
