last whipping boy
From: Colin H
Greetings Trek tv Well you returned with the last outpost and as Madam Tracy threatened to beat us all to within an inch of our lives with her whip i better write in. When you consider that the whole idea for this episode was to create the basis for the new villain in Trek, you really think to yourself what the! How lame ass of a villain is someone who bounces around like a gibbon on speed,with a weapon that by the time you have unfurled it and got ready to shoot,even someone striking the Phaser firing pose can have shot you three times. That and the fact they never even built the inside of the Ferengi ship (hence the white screen) is truly amazing. No the Ferengi became a laughing stock with the fans and so the producers realizing they had dropped the ball,brought back the Klingons and the Romulans. Then like old fiends we had some decent bad guys. The Ferengi did go on to have successful carrer as comic effect in DS9 but every time they appeared in TNG you just thought nah! That said you did as usual a most impressive job of reviewing this one and wow Tracy can you out the beer away! go girl live long and podcast
