Synopsis: After diverting to the Federation hospital on Ajilon Prime looking for an interesting story, Jake believes himself to be a coward when repeated Klingon attacks awaken him to the reality of war and force him to abandon Dr. Bashir and run for cover.
Review: I knew this one was going to be a groaner as soon as we hear Jake narrating his angsty thoughts about his writing. I almost always hate it when the narrator is the primary character, as it often just feels like the writer/director isn’t trusting that they can get their point across with story and must jam the protagonist’s feelings down our throats.
Synopsis: Sisko and O’Brien are trapped on a world with no advanced technology, and the Human colonists living there are determined to keep it that way.
Review: The idea that someone would crash land a bunch of people on a planet (without their knowledge) to create an anti-technology community is deplorable in and of itself. The episode doesn’t do enough to demonize Alixus, who is the cult leader.

Review: One of the first SNES games I played. My brother worked at a video store and was able to bring home a system and games every once in a while (before he bought me the system in 1994). Star Fox and Super Mario Kart were frequent rentals. Star Fox quickly became my favorite shooter to date as I was blown away by the Super FX chip (though admittedly it wouldn’t blow any one away now or even twenty years ago).
Review: How many times has Star Trek done the whole alien body snatcher plot? It’s just not that interesting, no matter how they dress it up. The mystery is not a mystery as the teaser more or less reveals the climax forty minutes earlier.
I will pretty much watch any time loop show or movie no matter how terrible it is, but Palm Springs (despite its stupid title) rises above most of them to deliver a funny and entertaining ninety minutes.
Review: I’ve spent a lot of time gushing about this game here. I ranked it my second favorite RPG I’ve played and my friend nibbish and I counted down the Top 20 moments. So this review will have a bit of a different flavor.
Synopsis: While Worf, Dax, Bashir, Leeta, and Quark vacation on Risa, Worf decides to join a radical fundamentalist group determined to start a political revolution on Risa.
