The wealth of the wicked is stored up for the righteous, that's means you, the earth belongs to the lord and the fullness of there of, the gold is his, the silver and the oil is all his, so, we are his children, who you think he wants to have it, the slime balls, or his Sons and Daughters, who up for the blessings, what has God put in your heart, to do? think about it, pray about it, here what the holy spirit is saying.

Believe it or not, Shatner did his own stunts....Really!

The conclusion is so very realistic and frightening that CBS channel has an age restriction, so I can only post this exciting part of the battle between Kirk and the Gorn!

To see the conclusion, you must be 18 years of age or ask your Dad.

Just on the other night on the H&I channel.
I don't know what I'd rather go up against, the Gorn lizard man or shipwrecked and stranded on a little indonesian island next to Komodo?


BTW, That monitor at 12 seconds is not a komodo. I'm sure that hurt though.
I used to own the 2nd largest species of lizard in the world. If I took up the offer on a zoo Directorship, I would have gotten a Komodo.

The conversion of mass and length is 366pounds and around 10 feet long.
Think of a medium sized carnivorous dinosaur when you consider the largest Komodo Monitors.

Mine was only about 6 feet long and much lighter bodied.
yaa but that was fun Entertaiment
This is true.
Seeing Kirk fight a Lizard Man had to be the best combination of contenders.
I can't believe that age restriction was put in the last scene.

I'd never get one of those. They're reptiles, not dogs.

I guess we have to agree to disagree.

Picard (so far) has really just been one story. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Picard has been a relatively minor character (compared to who he was in TNG).

With Discovery, I disagree entirely with your assessment. There are a few episodes like that, but overall it isn't like that at all. And let's be honest, there are a few episodes of every one of the series, even TNG and DS9, that were like that. FarPoint (the first TNG episode) was just plain awful.

The characters in Discovery are fresh, layered, and exciting. If you haven't watched more than a few episodes in the beginning, I'd argue that you haven't really given it a chance. Same as if someone just watched the first few episodes of TNG and gave up.
Are you saying that the new series are NOT woke? Or at least in-your-face woke?

Great list! Yep, Space Seed and Balance of Terror are classics. Doomsday Machine always reminds me of Jaws. I think composer John Williams was inspired by the music in Doomsday Machine.

And the Children Shall Lead, good ep, and so relevant today. Though I have to say when the first couple times the Gorgan starts talking to the children, I can't help cracking up lol... his delivery is so bizarre.

It might depend on who you might be stranded with. Ginger or Mary Ann? Yeah, it's a tough one. Those man-eating lizards are problematic though.
