So the Spaceballs sequel won't be The Search For More Money...


PNQ: What are they thinking? This thing wouldn't exist if the studio wasn't searching for more money!

I'm in the middle of a marathon of previously unknown Trek reviews, and I notice that stupid green wraparound that I hate so much...


PNQ: What's a meaningless thing in Trek that annoys you like this?

So I saw a Reddit meme that implied that Bashir dated a patient three times. I only remember two, Melora and Sarina.


PNQ: Who's the third?


I don't think Ezri or Leeta counts. There's a difference between being a general doctor and being in charge of specialized treatment.

PNQ: Is anyone else getting really annoyed that YouTubers have to change the names of old videos in order to get more views?


I know I am.

Watching SFDebris' review of "Homefront" again...


PNQ: Why do the characters think that the blood tests would be so easy to evade?


I mean, blood without continual access to fresh oxygen would be quite different chemically from fresh blood. Blood stored within a changeling would be "dead" and easy to detect by the specially-designed hypospray that's used to take the sample, right?


For that matter, if you don't mind a bulkier option another way to detect changelings is to stick a hand into a special device. You get injected with an anesthetic, a skin sample is taken including blood, and then it's immediately healed with a special dermal regenerator.


Actually, now that I think about it why wasn't the polaron radiation thing revisited in later episodes? Surely refining it into a low-level phaser beam would let you test people with it without killing solids with radiation poisoning, right?
