I'm glad he raised this....ohhh my! In case you don't know what we're talking about, you really should be reading everything Larry Nemecek has to say about anything by way of Star Trek decree: TrekLand Supplemental This is our take on Larry' question "Is TNG due for a Comeback?"
Now as we have mentioned we were TNG fans first, born into that time line so grew up watching it. We can now appreciate TOS and love the "Retro" look of the show but we confess to being those viewers who as kids would have scoffed at the MDF sets and Christmas lighting effects. When talking to our TiT (Trekkie In Training) Sarah, we asked her how she was getting on with watching TNG and she said "yeah … Continue Reading ››
Carole and Sam start by discussing Voyager, the merging of the two crews but then go on to defend the USS Enterprise 1701-D 's honour in the Star Trek V Star Wars debate. The 'D' is an awesome ship and the Trekkie Girls will tell you why....
Today TNG turns 24!! (since it debuted) which coming from a pair at the grand old age of 29 it doesn't seem that old. However upon hearing that Enterprise turned 10 years old on the 26th....What The Spock!? Is there a rip in the space time continuum??I suppose the difference is that I don't remember TNG starting...its always just existed right!?...like The Original Series or Q?I remember each of the others starting though and hearing that the 'newest' incarnation is now 'old' makes me feel a little more mortal.Enterprise turned out to be an excellent series though, cut waaaaay before her time. Shame on you TV execs (bunch of Ferengi).Once we have assimilated the world into Trekkies we are looking at having an advanced programme … Continue Reading ››
Carole is a comic reader and I have always felt less of a geek because of it. But its time to change that and I have gone out and bought my first Comic! (by go out - I mean visit the App store and download it!). Techie stuff: I went for the iPad download as I don't have a comic book store nearby (for shame) and I prefer magazines etc via digital download, the pictures 'pop' and if you spill your raktajino all over it, well you just make yourself another one and carry on reading.I think there was a lot more they could have done with the media though, I found myself rotating the screen from Landscape to Portrait to make sure I … Continue Reading ››
The first one is Dirty, the second is good for a one night stand and the third will last you allllll night.
Being Trekkie Girls, we had no dates on Friday night so instead decided to hangout in The Neutral Zone and create the perfect Romulan Ale. We have heard of many concoctions but ironically some of the ingrediants for the official version are illegal in the UK!
There was a difference in opinion over which one was the nicest and which one tasted most like Romulan Ale. We can't remember what's in the first one - probably everything...and that's why we can't remember! The second one is Absolut Citron (that's Vodka, not a make of car), Grape Juice, … Continue Reading ››
Sam and Carole introduce their new blog. A two girl mission to assimilate new Trekkies, decipher Spock's tweets and boldly going over, what many Trekkies have discussed before!
24th Century Socialites. 21st Century high functioning nerds. We go to Star Trek Conventions and talk about Star Trek a lot.
Now as we have mentioned we were TNG fans first, born into that time line so grew up watching it. We can now appreciate TOS and love the "Retro" look of the show but we confess to being those viewers who as kids would have scoffed at the MDF sets and Christmas lighting effects.
