But then they killed him, Sean, so ... it's starting from scratch.
Oh, yeah, baby, it's snakalicious in here.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Was that in the last movie? I never saw it.
Don't worry about spoiling me, I don't care any more, although I may have to go rent it tonight, if it's out on video yet.

But then they (whited out), Sean, so ... it's (whited out).
Ack!
Edited to despoil, but I can't do whitefont in quotes.

Okay, I whited that out, because I realise I thought the movie came out yonks ago. I apologise strenuously for all the people I spoiled.
More details: They did indeed kill him, but they found a proto-Data, so wotsisname still has a job.

Heavy groundwork was laid during the series for Data to evolve his own genuine, natural emotions. Multiple episodes dealt with it, and hinted that Data would acheive them on his own. I felt this was a wonderful and moving story line.
They make the FIRST MOVIE, and just permanently fuse the emotion chip into his head, and years worth of work, and everything that made Data interesting, flew right ot the frelling airlock.
Spike and the soul, anyone?

And why didn't they have early 19th-Century Methos more often?
An excellent question. Early 19th-Century Methos had adorable floppy hair. Early 19th-Century Methos entertained the idea of threesomes.

Okay I whited out what you whited out in my quote for obvious reasons.

It's been out ten months, but a little erring-on-the-side-of-oops won't go awry.

Yeah, I think we're past the point that it counts for white fonting in the movie thread, but c'est la vie.
I'm not sure how I feel about this development, I may have to wait until I see the movie to know for sure. Either way, it's been a while since I really cared all that much.

I'm old school. Like Happy Shopper.
Me too, strangely. I was full of the TNG love when it was on, but whenever I check which episodes are playing on Spike (nee TNN), even the really good ones are not enough to make me watch them again.
Hmm, I sense a pattern, as I'm the same. I can easily fall back into watching a DS9 episode, but whenever TNG comes on, I find myself flicking pretty quickly
X-posted, but yeah, Ezri. I felt bad because I really liked the actress and some of what they did with the character, but she started out too perky and neurotic.
Most of my problems with that character arose from the fact that the way they made her feel more like she fitted in was to have her cure Garak's nervous breakdown. Sacrificing a wonderfully subtle character like Garak, just so that Ezri could feel all fulfilled was a ridiculous contivance, and one I could never quite forgive.
(Also, to introduce myself further, I used to love Due South when it was on, but haven't seen it in years, adore Farscape, though due to scheduling problems I've yet to see the 4th series and Smallville is a mystery to me. I've tried watching occasionally, but just find it a little to dull and overly sentimental most of the time. Plus I don't find TW all that attractive, so I don't even have that to ull me in!))
