method acting

Posted 2009-05-27 21:52:36 by Jim Crawford Working through a list of Star Trek: TNG episodes I compiled out of top ten lists and recommendations from friends, since I feel like I'm geek-culture-deficient in this area. I probably know more Star Trek lore from jokes I've heard than from actual episodes. I'd forgotten forgot how didactic Star Trek is. It's a tossup as to whether I'd've enjoyed it more as a teenager. At this point in my life I already know that time travel might screw up the present and that you should appreciate friends while you still have them and that androids-as-property is slavery, but on the other hand I also have a lot more patience nowadays with being told things I already know. <pf>  worf is really giving beverly the evil eye <dw>  yeah, he'll do that <dw>  he does the jaw grind thing too <dw>  i always liked that <pf>  being a method actor can't be good for your teeth <dw>  they're probably fake anyways <dw>  in ds9 he buys a ferengi tooth sharpener. it's a great sequence [link to this] [See more on “life”]

Can I quote this?

Posted by Anonymous (Joey) on 2009-07-23 01:56:01 I have a weekly podcast called "TrekWest5" regarding ST:TNG (and other TV shows) - can I use this (with, of course, the proper attribution)?
