I would like Trekkies 3 to focus on the new fans as well as the well known fans who were influenced by Star Trek in the Science community. Trek is more then conventions and people in costume, it is about a better future and technology that promotes well being and harmony for the planet.

I always liked Denise, She seems so personable in interviews.
_ A little off point, but. . . Whatever happened to Jennifer Lien, I always liked her and its such a shame she is not in anything anymore, also Terry farrell. . . Just wondering.

Hey, why not a TREKKIES 3. We can spend another 45 minutes in the life and times of that chick who wears her TNG pajamas to court. Seriously, what the hell. The thing I dislike about these films is that for every couple of people they have on who are like “We’re just normal people who like to unwind by putting on latex foreheads and grunting like we had the all-you-can-eat buffet at COLON CRACKERS the night before”, you have people who reinforce the worst of the stereotypes. My girlfriend pointed out during a viewing of TREKKIES 2 recently that the more far out people seem somehow to be emotionally damaged, and that Trek is their coping mechanism. Like the “My wife left me so I turned my house into a starship with no bed so I sleep on the floor” guy. At least he had the sense to look mildly embarrased.

I work for a state government agency that deals with testing for Civil Service jobs. Recently, someone sent me a resume to be evaluated to determine what tests he should sit for, and he included his transcript for “Starfleet Academy” with the packet. What the hell. I’m not sure what universe this guy lives in (Ok, so maybe I do know what universe he lives in), but what kind of real-world job does a major in “Borg Studies” get you, beyond sitting in a pile of your own filth and accusing the vaccum cleaner of mutiny? I just have visions of this guy going to a job interview (oddly enough, crammed into Uhura’s mirror universe costume), and introducing himself as Lt. Commander Ballsack, Chief Sheep-Shagger of the USS Buttmunch. Or something like that.

Then I usually laugh and take another hit.

31: Wesley crusher and Ro Laren moved on. Ro wasn’t really a regular, though.

Denise leaving the show taught the rest of the TNG cast a lesson. Your already typecast and if you want a paycheck, better stay on board. Also, Farrah’s story gives insight into the world of work in TV. She left Charlie’s Angels prematurely and it affected her ability to get work the rest of her life.

Yar dying in the first season had me hoping more characters would get killed off in the show. It was a gutsy thing for Denise Crosby to do and shifted the ‘comfort zone’ of TNG for a while. It made things seem a lot more dangerous. Sadly no one else was killed off or moved on!

I liked Tasha very much. In fact, I was a teenager back then and I really had a big crush on her.
What a shame Denise decided to leave the show. I’m sure her character would have developed in time.

28 (”Spock”? I don’t think so!): You know, “condition X does not apply to me” does not entail “condition X applies to nobody”. Elementary logic, my friend.

Uh, excuse me, I care very much about Denise! I’m a huge Tasha Yar/Sela fan!
