This Star Trek: Lower Decks article contains spoilers.
Okay, leaving aside the super-racist episode “Code of Honor,” we’re all agreed that “Shades of Gray” is the low point of Star Trek: The Next Generation, right? Sure, there’s still “Masks” and “Rascals” and I get why people don’t like “Sub Rosa” (I said what I said), but “Shades of Gray” is hardly an episode. Riker gets an alien infection, Dr. Pulaski sticks a doo-hickey on his head, and then he… rewatches highlights from the first two seasons. And that’s because “Shades of Gray” is that most dreaded product of 1980s syndicated television: a clip show.
Fortunately, clip shows have become a relic of the pop culture past rendered unnecessary in our always-on digital age. But Lower Decks never forgets, so it’s no surprise that the series would do its own version of a clip show. And...

Patrick Stewart had a rough start behind the scenes at Star Trek: The Next Generation.
As candidly detailed in an exclusive audio excerpt (hear Stewart narrate the story below) from his new autobiography, Making It So: A Memoir, the veteran British actor clashed with his castmates early on.
But first, Stewart detailed how nervous he was about playing a Star Trek captain, how industry insiders were predicting the syndicated series was doomed to fail, and how he was determined to take the part quite seriously. It was the British Shakespeare stage actor’s first regular TV series — he was being paid more money than he had ever imagined earning — and he wanted to prove naysayers wrong while respecting the legacy of the franchise.
So when he was on set shooting the show’s debut season and co-stars like Jonathan Frakes, Denise Crosby and Brent Spiner would tease him or ad-lib...

Disquiet is defined as “a feeling of anxiety or worry”, and it’s something one often feels when in a hospital even if they’re just visiting. So imagine what Sam is feeling when he wakes up in a hospital with nobody answering the call button. Even worse, the patient in the next bed tries to strangle him, then chases him into the hall where Sam stabs him repeatedly with a scalpel, only for the body to vanish.
When a nurse does arrive she vanishes as soon as he looks away. And then the psycho guy returns, even ripping open the roof of the elevator trying to get at Sam. After escaping once again he has flashbacks to the accident that put him in the hospital.
That all takes place...

Days after her grandmother’s death, a young professional woman returns to her family home to sort through what was left behind. Wrapped in a blanket to warm herself from the storm raging outside, the woman senses a ghostly presence, one that visited her in a dream the night before. The presence begins to speak, bidding the woman closer, promising that he loves her as much as he once loved her grandmother. Terror grips the woman’s face, but with it, desire.

Running for 178 episodes over seven years, "Star Trek: The Next Generation" deservedly picked up plenty of awards on its ongoing mission, and it's not difficult to pick out episodes that truly stood out as exemplary. There were some absolute stinkers, too like the lazy budget-saving clip show "Shades of Gray," and "Code of Honor" and "Up the Long Ladder," which form a double-bill of offensive cultural insensitivity.
However, there are those stories that often get overlooked, brushed under the space carpet in favor of award-winning episodes — stories that still hold up today but didn't make a particular impact on release. This article is a celebration of the "Next Generation" stories that flew under the radar yet are more than worthy of a rewatch.

"Star Trek: The Next Generation" has inquired about the future of humanity and the nature of being, but the French Captain Jean-Luc Picard's English accent remains a point of confusion even after the man traversed space and time. The Captain has expressed his pride in and appreciation for French culture, reciting the "Frère Jacques" nursery rhyme, and muttering "merde" in times of distress. Despite this, he also loves Earl Grey tea and Shakespeare, so his cultural background isn't entirely Gallic.
Data mentions in the (much-reviled) season 1 episode "Code of Honor" that French is an "obscure language," though it's implied Picard is, indeed,...

“ died a senseless death in the other timeline. I didn’t like the sound of that, Captain. I’ve always known the risks that come with a Starfleet uniform. If I am to die in one, I’d like my death to count for something.”
Denise Crosby’s Lt. Tasha Yar, Star Trek: The Next Generation’s inaugural chief of security, managed—due to some alternate timeline trickery—to take that legendary meta-minded dig at her own death from two years earlier in the Season 1 episode, “Skin of Evil.” With that episode having originally aired on April 25, 1988, the anniversary is a good occasion to look back on the controversial behind-the-scenes circumstances that resulted in poor Tasha’s unspectacular, abrupt, red-shirt-like fatal encounter with an alien tar monster on a cheap-looking set.

It’s 2020, and Hollywood still can’t get enough of old David Hasselhoff IPs. Three years after Baywatch was rebooted with a starry new cast in 2017, the news has arrived that cult 80s TV series Knight Rider is also now making its way to the big screen.
Deadline reported this afternoon that Spyglass Entertainment is teaming up with Aquaman director James Wan’s Atomic Monster production company to develop a feature film reboot of the classic property. It looks like Wan will produce, alongside Michael Clear, with former video game writer Tj Fixman, whose credits include Ratchet & Clank and Resistance: Fall of Man, attached to provide the script. Judson Scott will exec produce.
As anyone familiar with the original show will know, Knight Rider followed Hasselhoff’s Michael Knight as he went around fighting crime with his trusty talking car, Kitt. Plot details on the movie reboot have yet to be revealed,...

While Star Trek: The Next Generation boasts some of the franchise’s most thought-provoking and well-written episodes (“The Measure of a Man” comes to mind), the series also has its share of real stinkers. To be fair, though, a lot of these travesties come from the show’s first season, which encountered plenty of stumbles as the writers and producers tried to figure out what kind of role the Enterprise’s crew would play within the larger universe.
We could go back-and-forth on what episode takes the top spot, but it seems the show’s cast has weighed in on that matter themselves. As reported by Bounding Into Comics, a handful of the principal actors – including Jonathan Frakes (William T. Riker), Denise Crosby (Lt. Tasha Yar), and John de Lancie (Q) – made a virtual appearance at GalaxyCon and had a discussion about “Code of Honor.”

Star Trek is known for its progressive, inclusive ideals, but no TV series is perfect and the franchise has unfortunately stumbled over the years, producing episodes that haven’t aged well. Case in point: “Code of Honor,” the fourth episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation season 1. Fans may like to pretend that the racially-insensitive episode doesn’t exist, but stars Jonathan Frakes and Denise Crosby have called it out in a recent interview.
“Code of Honor” sees the Enterprise crew visiting Ligon II in order to retrieve a vaccine created by the Ligonians, a primitive race played entirely by black actors. If that wasn’t enough, the plot sees the Ligonians kidnap the Caucasian Lt. Tasha Yar (Crosby). It made uncomfortable enough viewing in the late 80s, let alone nowadays.

Match #1: Tracy Williams beat David Finlay The following is courtesy of rohwrestling.com:
Iwgp U.S. Champion Juice Robinson, who is a close friend of Finlay, sat in on commentary. Williams controlled the pace early with his mat wrestling skills. He also showed that he can deliver high-impact moves, as he hit a single-arm Ddt on the turnbuckle followed by a big clothesline for a near fall. Finlay came back with a Sambo backbreaker for a near fall and a devastating clothesline of his own for another two count. Williams answered with a Death Valley Driver for a near fall before finishing off Finlay with a piledriver. Williams and Finlay adhered to...

Match #1: “Hangman” Adam Page defeated Scorpio Sky The following is courtesy of rohwrestling.com:

Welcome to this week’s Ring of Honor review. I’m Nathan Favel and we’ve got some great action ahead of us tonight. Let’s jump right into the fray at break-neck speed.
Match #1: Jay Lethal vs. Chuckie T (Chuck Taylor)
This is my own personal dream match, among others. Lethal just received a great compliment from Kevin Sullivan, comparing he and Jay Briscoe to people like Terry Funk, Dusty Rhodes and all the greats of the age, a sentiment of which I absolutely agree. I think Taylor has been doing really well since coming to Roh and has been making great strides in the way he carries himself. From the ring of the opening bell, these two guys made good on what is actually the first singles match they’ve had against each other by going for the jugular. Lethal looked like a true star right from the start,...

2016 was an eventful year for Steven Seagal. The action movie star really took to Twitter, got political, wore some lovely coats and was granted Russian citizenship. But we aren’t here to dissect Steven Seagal’s off-screen life because, well, fuck. What we can do is try to make some sense of his cinematic output. This article will tell you a bit about the Seagal films released in 2016 (it’s full on with spoilers) to let you know how he got on.

With films getting different releases in different territories, I’ve covered every Seagal film with a home video release in 2016 that I might reasonably be expected to have access to. That’s five in total. In the UK, we had a bumper Seagal summer,...

Meet Decker. He’s a former federal agent turned mall security guard – Paul Blart, eat your heart out – played by action veteran Steven Seagal. More often than not, he also finds himself on the End of a Gun, which is exactly where or our grizzled hero is placed in this exclusive, action-packed clip for Keoni Waxman’s thriller.
Rolling back the years, Waxman’s genre piece is one of a number of Seagal vehicles simmering in the works, given the esteemed actor also holds roles across The Asian Connection, The Perfect Weapon, Code of Honor and Sniper: Special Ops – we’re beginning to sense a pattern emerging – all of which are slated for release in 2016.

Back in the 1980s and 1990s, action cinema was largely defined by a certain level of machismo. The typical action heroes were muscle-bound, seemingly invincible and known for their ability to dispatch one-dimensional villains with an endless supply of cheesy one-liners. The work of Arnold Schwarzenegger perhaps best exemplifies this particular style of filmmaking, but other stars like Sylvester Stallone, Jean-Claude Van Damme and Steven Seagal played in that very same sandbox and became international stars as a result.
Today’s most popular action films have embraced a very different approach, wherein the heroes are far more fallible and human and the violence is more grounded and visceral. Think the Bourne films or Daniel Craig’s James Bond. In recent years, the old-school style of action has largely been relegated to direct-to-dvd projects and nostalgia trips like Stallone’s The Expendables franchise. However, the new Seagal thriller, Code of Honor,...
