i am watching this weird round table discssion thing featurinf whoopie goldberg (host), shatner, nimoy, patrick stewart & johnathan frakes.
― ian, Sunday, 2 August 2009 03:33 (fourteen years ago) link
is that on the undiscovered country bounus disc? worth watching? have been mildly curious about this. seems like there's a good potential for lolz.
just watched this the other day:http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0296753/
pretty boring until shatner starts talking about how he couldn't possibly understand how anyone else on the cast could have a problem with him. then he speculates that it could be because the love these minor players get at conventions has blown up their egos! nimoy even backs him up on this!
crazy person:

Mind Meld is hilarious - I lol's at Nimoy's confessions about his "drinking problem"

I find Shatner rather charming for an egomaniac with a persecution complex.
― chap, Monday, 3 August 2009 16:08 (fourteen years ago) link
egomaniacs usually are pretty charming!
― SBed à part (s1ocki), Monday, 3 August 2009 16:09 (fourteen years ago) link
oh, he's definitely charming. totally perfect for the kirk role.
really funny that the person "interviewing" him in the video I posted is his daughter.
― original bgm, Monday, 3 August 2009 18:24 (fourteen years ago) link
and it's pretty obvious that a lot of this stuff is done with a wink to the audience but mind meld seemed to really hammer home the idea that shatner has a (being generous here...) pretty underdeveloped sense of empathy.

'I lol's at Nimoy's confessions about his "drinking problem"'I thought his alcoholism was real! It's not some kind of Borat thing is it?

yeah, that part came off as pretty legit to me, actually.

Scotty hooked up w/girls on several occasions on TOS including that one episode with the lights that take over people's bodies.
Nurse Chapel on TOS had an ex-fiance who they found building robots to take over the galaxy.

Maybe this is true for the OG series, but in TNG pretty much all the main characters have paired up with each other at one time or another: Picard and Crusher, Troi and Riker, Troi and Worf, Data and Tasha Yar... I think Geordi was the only main character who never paired up with another crew member... Or did he?
― Tuomas, Tuesday, 17 November 2009 21:05 (fourteen years ago) link
Geordi was a real ladies man - he seemed to go on dates more often then the rest of the crew combined.

Of course he'd always blow it by taking the girl out to some super cheesy holodeck island that he'd spent hours programming.
But he married a german hologram!

In the alternate timeline of TNG series finale All Good Things..., La Forge has by 2395 married Leah Brahms and had three children (Alandra, Brett, and Sydney) with her. He had left Starfleet and became a novelist. However, these events may never happen because of the divergence of the time line at the episode's end.
wow did not know that

it is not true at all for the OG series. Kirk has more girlfriends than he can count, Spock has a couple trysts (including one arranged marriage), Bones has exes, Scotty and Chekov pursue romances, etc. Uhura's the only lonely one iirc

The Spock arranged marriage episode is funny, because his wife to be dumps him for some other guy.Doesn't Uhura avoid relationships because she was engaged to another Starfleet officer who was killed on a mission, or something?

lol Uhura didn't even have a canonical first name until the 2009 movie, she certainly wasn't going to have any canonical tail
