Riker sells out and does a PPP

Will Riker sells out…really

Comment: I found this on a message board, and I never knew this existed. A normal nerd in an office is trying to deal with a crisis and William Riker appears on his computer screen from the future to give the Nerd a pep talk…while selling some software.

I’m guessing this extended ad was filmed during the third or fourth seasons. This is pretty low, and I’m sure Frakes wishes he never did this crap.

Note: Not nearly as bad as Worf doing an episode of Webster.

This is fabulous! I say third season...the gut is still small but there are colars on the uniform. I've always had the biggest crush on Riker!

lol, yeah his gut got bigger each season. But, Riker was the man!

He sort of slimmed down for Insurrection.

I notice people saying that Gene Roddenberry wouldn't approve at the video site, but I think he got some green on that deal.

oh, yeah. Unlike the movies, TNG was his baby and he pretty much saw tons of dollars from each ST deal/promotional.

Fans seem to have this legendary view of the guy, overlooking his flaws.

For a guy who loves the fandom, he's AWESOME. I can't say enough about Jonathan Frakes.

Not only does he loves Trekkies, they all love him...!! It's great when he used to 'invite himself' to some Cons.. I saw him in Mpls in '92 and he was the BEST with audiences. A real crowd pleaser.

I know he loved doing the series, and vied for doing spin-off work. I remember his interview Marina about doing 'The Rikers'.., what a laugh that would have been, just to see the pilot.

Yeah, Frakes is up for everything. He's a nice guy, plus he is a pretty good director. But he needs to direct more movies, and I am not talking about Timestoppers.

Shannon Fill: Where is she now? (Ensign Sito Jaxa)

Shannon Fill:   Where is she now? SF has been reviewing TNG seasons o ver at his blog. And, the episode Lower Decks came up. I recently watched Lower Decks on Net-flicks and found myself amazed with the performance from the young and lovely Shannon Fill , who played the character Ensign Sito Jaxa. Jaxa showed up in two episodes of TNG, actually they were two important episodes.   There was a nice arc to her character too.   Her character was killed off in Lower Decks , but there were plans to bring her back for an episode of DS9. From Memory Alpha , ((One story considered by the writing staff concerned the return of  Sito Jaxa  from  TNG : " Lower Decks ". The pitch had Sito being imprisoned under inhumane conditions and suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.  Robert Hewitt Wolfe  developed the story for some time. Feeling that there was insufficient explanation of Sito's condition, he had Sito killing her cellmate, whom she'd become cl...

Madison Swan/Mia Malkova: Not so Mother's Day

I’ve written about some messed up things in my time as a blogger, but this story might just top the cake.  And, I mean really.  If you are offended by porn and the porn industry, don’t read this blog.  However, this might be one of the strangest and creepiest things I’ve seen and read about.  It just seems so wrong... A few days ago, I stumbled across an Amateur Allure (porn) video.   AA is a polished porn site that features a lot of POV shots and newcomers in the industry.   Also, there is MILF/step daughter (pretending) porn thing out there and it’s very popular.   Even AA has a few of these “fake” mother/step-daughter teams.   It is a very popular Genre in the industry.   However, this one is different.   AA had a video claiming that a fledging pornstar Madison Swan/Mia Malkova   did a Pre-Audition video with her mother tagging along…her real mother.  Mia/Madison shows up for her “audition”, which means you show ...

Starfleet Academy canned. It got an F

Image
So, they finally pulled the plug on this shitshow.  I tried my best to get through Star Trek Discovery, and I could only get through the first season.  I checked out.  This wasn’t a show for me.  I wasn’t even going to try to sit through Starfleet Academy.  I had no interest in 32nd-century stuff.  I care about the 23–25 centuries.  Instead of giving us a follow-up to Picard and Lower Decks, they gave us this crap.   Despite being canceled, the Academy will have another season, but nothing else.   It is time for a change-up.  Put some people who care about Trek and not this bullshit.  Perhaps I can get back into it.
