I think that the longer run time is killing it. Too much fluff over content.
Did we really need to see John going to sickbay 3 or 4 times?

hmmm… strange, yet oddly arousing. now I cannot “unsee” this.
I gave up even trying to listen to that video halfway through... Ortegas' tone alone is cringe fuel.

I can never decide if Ortegas or La'an is the worst character in Trek history. But that's the great thing about the franchise--there's always so many bad characters to choose from.
Probably Ortegas. La'an may be stolen character, but at least she's stolen from a really great character...

I checked out that web address—it’s just a crappy old website that actually tells you nothing about whatever “The Room” is supposed to be. What is that?
