probably not but he doesnt run his mouth about it. who knows maybe recent events opened his eyes, he doesnt seem totally unreasonable.
the worst thing i could find was a sketch he did with stephen colbert in 2016 where they try to go back in time quantum leap style and try to convince him to stay out of politics but they fail and trump ends up being elected pope. i couldnt find any other references by scott to trump.
apparently there is a quantum leap episode where scott convinces donald trump to get into real estate..ill have to find that episode some time.
i can look past that, he was still a good captain. watching some solid scott bakulacting always brings a smile to my face. always disappointed that the canceled enterprise and cheaply killed off trip.
even stewart who totally didnt understand the character of picard or what star trek was about or what made it interesting, despite the lunatic bullshit he believes i cant dislike the real picard when stewart didnt have his poisonous opinions defiling everything.(obviously the other writers of st picard are also highly culpable)
I've always admired him since Quantum Leap. Growing up in the UK, we got a lot of that stereotype square jawed American hero type, but he was unique with a fatherly presence and brains as well as brawn.
I am still annoyed his first scene on Star Trek: Enterprise wasn't him sat in the captain's chair and saying "oh boy...", and that they didn't even reference it when Dean Stockwell was in an episode.
Actually been thinking about that episode. Recently rewatched the whole of TNG and that episode stood out to me as I remembered hating Jellico and thinking he was a total asshole when I originally watched it as a teen.
Rewatching it I had the complete opposite reaction: He was totally, 100% correct. Riker was the asshole, unequivocally.
I subsequently sought out this video and was glad I was not alone in this.
Yup, one of my favourites of all time. As a 10/11 year old I pestered my mum to let me see it until she gave in. She watched it first and allowed me because it had a good message and the good guys won in the end.
At the time I loved that it was a hyper-cynical satire of an uncaring, corporate near future. Sadly they pretty much got that spot on. How many Clarence Boddickers are there, running around doing the bidding of Deep State Dick Jones's?
Maybe you're mixing him up with Patrick Steward who played Picard? Also the guy who played Sulu is a giant faggot, in every sense of the word. Shatner seems to be consistently based, but then again it's never worth trying to hope somebody in Hollywood will stay consistent.
Hey man, I’m plugging away at season 1 and I gotta say DS9 is great. That first episode was movie-tier and the grittiness of it all is very refreshing from my Star Trek, TNG.
one of the most brilliant human minds in existence, literally was saved by altering the past, limitless potential.....
ah fuck it lets just make her a stupid drunk murderous bounty hunter. at least shes not wearing the cat suit god forbid women in star trek be sexy.
there was an interview with jeri were she was talking about reading the picard script and freaking out because she couldnt find 7s voice(because its not there). she basically said she had to just suck it up and do what they wanted her to do. Shes not a AAA star or anything im sure shes stoked to work on a project that has so much attention again. pretty sad really.
the original portrayal of picard still exists. even though stewart is a real life idiot his portrayal of a character he didnt understand at all still holds up.
im not going to let the new trash stop me from enjoying something that is good.
For people who didn't follow - The trans vox TV critic Emily VanDerWerff had a major narcissistic breakdown all cause Matt Yglesias signed the same letter as JK Rowling. He sent an email to Vox complaining (and therefore proving the exact point of the Harper letter about cancel culture), posted it on twitter, but then said "But I don't want to get him in trouble tee hee!" - Which nobody bought cause going after Yglesias on twitter like that is an obvious attack to get him in trouble from Vox or the social mob. So then after a lot of people defended Yglesias, Emily has since then treated himself as the victim, talked about all the rape and death threats he's received which nobody seems to find any evidence of, and said he wants to kill himself, and also went on facebook to begging for people to compliment him so he can feel better. All while refusing to consider the possibility he may have done something that could hurt Yglesias, or that situations like this were the point of the letter.
I'm enjoying it since I'm a fan of TV art and I've had a bone to pick with Todd/Emily because he's been the WORST thing to happen to the TV criticism the last ten years. He has single handily made it more of a clickbait, groupthink driven industry where instead of critics having their own individual opinions, it comes down to whatever groupthink opinion twitter has settled on that day like a fad. Because he has talent it's led him to the top of the industry, but the obvious narcissism has had a huge effect. Someone this insane and driven by what other people think of him cannot be trusted to be one of the top tastemakers, and he's half the reason why it feels like tastemakers exist for it.
The people responsible for the sackings have been sacked
Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked have been sacked.
A moose once bit my sister.
Oh she turned me into a Newt!
I got better.
The directors of the firm hired to continue the credits after the other people had been sacked, wish it to be known that they have just been sacked.
Everyone that uses the word responsible is racist you fucking bigots!
USS Kekterprise
HAH fricken great username
SOMEONE WATCHED MONTY PYTHON THE HOLY GRAIL RECENTLY!
Actually it's been over a decade easily
I watched MP religiously as a kid
I saw it the other day. Love those movies. My wife is not a fan of British comedy, so don’t watch it much anymore. So many classic one liners though.
They should post a list of initial signers who later requested their names be removed.
There should be a list of people that asked for a list! Lists are racist!
Also a list of lists that people asked for, a list of the lists asked for by each individual, and a list of the individuals that asked for each list.
Can't we just get a list of all individuals? That way no one's left behind.
Don't worry, you're on the list.
This calls for an investigation about Orange Man being bad.
A list of ways in which Orange Man is bad.
Best Enterprise Captain.
I wonder if Scott Bakula is based? He seems like he would be.
4 donations to the Obama campaign in 2012, so probably not.
probably not but he doesnt run his mouth about it. who knows maybe recent events opened his eyes, he doesnt seem totally unreasonable.

No way its clearly Jelico.

Dick Jones!
He's wanted for murder apparently...
...SPARE PARTS FOR 25 YEARS! WHO CARES IF IT WORKED OR NOT?
The old man thought it was pretty important....Dick.
Seriously though, hugely under-rated character actor. Best corporate shark ever!
I feel like I learned so much about the world from those movies.
Yup, one of my favourites of all time. As a 10/11 year old I pestered my mum to let me see it until she gave in. She watched it first and allowed me because it had a good message and the good guys won in the end.
Best scene in the movie for me. "Yes...I am a cop". He so wanted to kill him, but had to uphold the law.
At the time I loved that it was a hyper-cynical satire of an uncaring, corporate near future. Sadly they pretty much got that spot on. How many Clarence Boddickers are there, running around doing the bidding of Deep State Dick Jones's?
He's so awesome. Love Shatner.
Maybe you're mixing him up with Patrick Steward who played Picard? Also the guy who played Sulu is a giant faggot, in every sense of the word. Shatner seems to be consistently based, but then again it's never worth trying to hope somebody in Hollywood will stay consistent.
Kirk>Picard...
Shatner>>>>>>Stewart
the first one idk...but this one is an absolute.
the shat is a decade older than dummy stewart and looks a decade younger.
Hair >>>>>>>>>>>>No Hair
These are adult children. Simplest explanation I can come up with.
Peak Honkage
Deep Space Nine predicted sanctuary cities and the current state of California. We are only four years away from the Bell Riots.
Is Sisko actually a captain? I thought he was more of an administrator. I didn’t watch much DS9, forgive my ignorance.
He started out at a lower rank, but got promoted to captain.
Commander, then promoted to captain.
Does he get a ship to captain too? Actually don’t answer that, I’ll find out myself.
Fuck it why not? Does it have a rough start like Next Gen?
Hey man, I’m plugging away at season 1 and I gotta say DS9 is great. That first episode was movie-tier and the grittiness of it all is very refreshing from my Star Trek, TNG.
He said enterprise captain.
Jane Hathaway? I still have a crush on 7 of 9. Who knew that the Borg was real and that they'd be called democrats?
Katherine Janeway
Jane Hathaway was in The Beverly Hillbillies
Jokes on you, 7 of 9 is now gay according to the canon.
After meeting her love interest for one day.

Picard >> Stewart
I dont consider the new Picard series to be canon.
the original portrayal of picard still exists. even though stewart is a real life idiot his portrayal of a character he didnt understand at all still holds up.
im not going to let the new trash stop me from enjoying something that is good.
Did he actually Go there?? That was Bold
Shatner, 89 years old. High-energy.
He also traveled back in time to San Francisco in the mid-1980s.
T. J. Hooker also shot a lot of criminals who deserved it.
...talked about a lot of 911 calls.
Old White Man uses the most powerful weapon of the patriarchy, Logic, to Mansplain why Doublethink is bad.
Fixed your title in case you want points from the CCP . . . I mean REDitt
Who is the most woke? Who can virtue signal the loudest? These are the most important questions you fucking bigots!!!!
"So the people signing the cancel document about cancel culture found out that free speech means hearing things you don't agree with."
Then the clown world fireworks started. When liberals start explaining why free speech is bad....
