That slight twitch from Data as the badge flies by.

The categories are already set, it’s just a matter of meme interpretation. In the event of no submission I can fill in the gaps, but something tells me there are enough willing. 11 rikers is a bit intimidating, though.

Also, the article came out after the Short Trek “The Trouble with Edward” which already depicts a ship being overrun with tribbles within a week. Gotta love click bait.

Still a solid category for next year.

Looking back at this Klingon design, even the armor is silly. Move your neck too much and you puncture your jugular.

My response when I fielded this observation on day 2:

“I intended to have the meme completed prior to Christmas day as a gift. One that the community helps piece together. Not to mention the “holiday spirit” tends to drop off shortly after.”

Reposting this because the instance seemed to have crashed as I posted. Here's 11 Rikers Riking (files.catbox.moe)

This doesn’t fit the format, and can’t work with it, but this is where my head went as soon as I saw “11 Rikers Riking” -First truly “high effort” post on my part - this took more time than I care to admit.

No worries. This is great and I need to remember to link this for that day!

Certainly expected. I was more curious to see if there any outliers. Might consider turning this into an elimination board.

Sybok is a menace in his own right. I plan to add him and Valeris in the next round (minus Solok the obvious favorite)

That’s fair. By that measure, I should also include Krinn from Picard season 3.

Geneviève Bujold the original actor for Janeway, who quit after 2 days on set.

“Bujold was the first choice of the producers of Star Trek: Voyager to play Captain Nicole Janeway. She quit after a day and a half of shooting, with the public reason being she was unaccustomed to the hectic pace of television filming. (See: Bujold as Captain Nicole Janeway) Other rumored reasons included dissatisfaction with her performance on the part of the producers and dissatisfaction with the character on the part of Bujold. As Rick Berman politely put it in the October 8-14, 1994 issue of TV Guide: “It was immediately obvious it was not a good fit.” The producers subsequently hired TV veteran Kate Mulgrew, and changed the captain’s first name from Nicole to Kathryn on Mulgrew’s advice”

Something tells me Berman is the real reason.

Rick Berman is notorious for being a misogynist. He made various “sex appeal” decisions throughout Trek for the sake of viewership (adding 7 of 9 to Voyager, swapping Jadzia for Ezri on DS9, making T’Pol wear skin-tight clothes + the decon chamber + her Pon Farr phase)

Odds are he didn’t think Ms Bujold had the right “look” for the role or something similar.

Great find! I wasn’t sure there was a shot featuring at least (precisely) 4 phasers.
