That's not how it works unfortunately. They mention several times that they "download" his program into the ME. Not to mention that at least one time I can recall (Blink of an Eye) the Doctor is entirely separated from Voyager for upwards of a century (from his and the ME's reference) with no ill-effects.

>>33627
They surely have a cure but it's not funded by the Federation free medical plan since it's not a debilitating disease. And since no one has money, they can't go to some Ferrengi clinic, for example, to pay for treatment.

>>34138
Just replicate some ferengi money! Away teams should have emergency alien funds to blend into native populations better.

>>34138
They don't have "money" but I think everyone still gets paid. They gain credits of some sort to use with replicators and holodecks, and also for travelling. I bet vacations are also tied to it in some way.

>>34177
The ferengi prefer goldpressed latinum, which cannot be replicated. (In any case there's bound to be a Federation tresury of some sort, and an exchange, to facilitate things like that.)

The doc is probably my favourite character in the entire ST universe. He's such a well fleshed out character and they could have just done it half assed. Bob Picardo pulls it off perfectly.

I had tears of laughter from that episode where he's fantasizing and that one where he writes a novel and everyone is a dick in it to him. and nearly cried from that one where he had to pick between two patients to save.

He's so witty and audacious in the later seasons, even having the gall to "tutor" Seven in how to act human. <3 Robert Picardo.

Voyager was the series that I grew up watching and got me into star trek, so when I first read that his character was going to be a computer program, it blew my 12 year old mind and I had to check it out. It seems pretty old hat now, but it's an amazing concept.

Also his little cameo in First Contact. Well, not him, but the EMH on the Enterprise certainly seemed to share his wit. "Please state the nature of the medical emergency." "Fifteen Borg are about to break that door down." lol

Crusher always struck me as the most competent of the group/best bed side manners.

>>34167
You must not have watched the same TNG that I did.

It would be between Bashir and the EMH. And I'd go with Bashir. The genetic super powers beat out all the other doctors, and he's not going to pump you full of nanoprobes or have a malfunction and try to take over the ship.

Dr Phlox for sure. He'd be amazing to share a joint with, I don't even care that I need to insert a dozen Phletian leeches into my ear each day; I just think Phlox is a cool cool guy and I want him as my bro.

I think Dr. Phlox is a pretty cool guy, he has a pyrithian bat, and doesn't afraid of anything.

oh yeah I remember seeing this awhile ago. http://www.amazon.com/Star-Trek-Energy-Drink-Romulan/dp/B00290DOQ6

I bought a can of that from some little store in the mall just for shits and giggles. Tasted awful.

>>33899

Looks like a generic energy drink they slapped a star trek related label on for merchandising. I guarantee you it's nothing more than blue red bull.

>>33827
I like to pretend.

>>33899
I bought this once, it's just carbonated blueberry drink, it's good but nothing special.

>>33818
The aliens in that episode were at a modern day level of technology. It makes sense.

>>33988
Did you even read the thread?

>>33967

> I'm assuming the ships in Generations are CGI

You assume wrongly!

>>33965
I prefer to belive thats where those two guys go to make-out and the broadcasts keep interupting them

I've noticed this ever since that TNG episode in the matriarchal society. It bugs the hell out of me.

>>33985

yeah that fucking finale was bullshit. BULLSHIT

>>33813

And Riker grew a beard. Actually Riker proved he was more adapt being captain than Picard was in ship to ship combat. Shame he was stunted and shoe horned back to be number one.

My favourite series. The Doctor is my favourite Star Trek character.

Just watched futures end, and that two parter was awesome.

I agree with some of these reviews, however I think it would be better if there was a list from fellow trekkies. Also i think its even better what going back to episodes to choose episodes randomly and try to piece together the episode as you watch it.

They look similar. Bit different though in the face but they have that same expression.

Hope is illogical.

>I can't even begin to imagine how this would work, or how this could come about evolutionarily.

When it comes down to the nitty gritty of Science, Star Trek isn't all that realistic.

>>33323
You mean to hell?

>>32968
You can't smell a computer. Nor can you throw it across the room (without causing it damage) when you don't like the ending.

The Vulcans for sure had alliances and had some of them introduce themselves to humanity, of those it's never made clear. From Enterprise we know of only really the Denobulans but it is suggested that there were far more then that.

>>34004
But even the very first episode also has a klingon.

>>34005
I misinterpreted OP's request. I was thinking of races that were introduced by the Vulcans to humanity in the space community.

To make up for my mistake here is a link of all human first contacts by date:
http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/First_contacts

I'm not sure there's any cannon list of that sort of thing at all

>>33868

I have a dynamic IP. I actually did post in this thread earlier. You come across as hypersensitive and attention-starved. Please continue overreacting.

>>33869
Like I typed out earlier, as per your ID tag beforehand, I had fun with your shoddy punctuation, which is indicative of a lack of age & wisdom or a lack of education; make all the dynamic excuses you want, that won't change fact.

Stop raging up /1701/. There are better places to act like whiny children. Thank you.

>>33875
Dude just stop, you are only entertaining yourself. I'm positive that everyone reading this thread either thinks you have asberger's or is immature

>>33884

This is probably the same guy from the other thread where he made 6 posts trying to get people to care that someone had said "write" instead of "type". Easily identifiable by his excessive punctuation, and use of dubiously related reaction gifs.

>>33712
this is surprisingly accurate/observant

>>33754

I think they kind of tried the same formula with Voyager, with the Kazon being the dudes and Janeway being the woman - but it was too heavy handed and just did not fucking work. Also Janeway as a character did not speak to "feminist" anything - other than being a captain she was pretty plain-jane female.

>>33776

>Kazon being the men

Because men teach their kids to murder people or be killed, and suicide bomb people Well I guess that last part is true in some places

>>33802

It is more that Maje Cullah called her a worthless female everytime they met, and refused to do business with her due to her gender, and then kept Seska on a leash even though she had the brains in the operation.

I am not making some kind of "hurr durr men are bad" comment, I am just pointing out the "hurr durr" attempts at spelling out gendered struggle as plot within the first season of Voy.

When they did it in DS9, it was there, but subliminal AND the Federation represent "good masculinity" as opposed to the crushing brutality of the Cardis.

>>33753

What originally made me think of this is that there is a species of parrot with a phallus on their head, that they use to prep the female before actual sex. So, ya know, Bajorans have a whole extra erogenous zone, made for double clicking that mouse.

>>33803

>"hurr durr" attempts at spelling out gendered struggle as plot within the first season of Voy.

OMG the first few seasons were horrible for that. some times i just felt like throwing my remote at the TV yelling WE GET IT!!! WOMEN ARE CAPABLE!!!
