Description

It’s kind of ableist and pretty anti-Irish, it’s this week’s episodes of “Star Trek: The Next Generation”! First up: the Pakleds are technology thieves that stymie Riker and kidnap Geordie while Picard is off getting his ticker serviced in “Samaritan Snare”. After that, come play Irish stereotype bingo and revel in a horrible conclusion in “Up the Long Ladder.”
Also this week: shuttle design griping, cloning conundrums, and a postcredit that is basically all toilets and poop, so you can’t say we didn’t warn you.
