Back to the Salamander sex..........shouldn't Janeway and Paris have been arrested for child abandonment?

Given that a) they were kidnapped (newtnapped?) by Chakotay and Tuvok, and b) the little critters ran (wriggled? swam?) away anyway, that's probably one of the few things this steaming pile of crap couldn't be accused of.

I wonder if that even made any degree of tension or discomfort between the two.

When your commanding officer is a murdering psychopath likely to get you killed through either her incompetence or desire for amusement, I don't think there's much that can top it. Newt sex certainly can't.

I wonder if she would have been better as a chick or a newt.................................

Hell, didn't Janeway say she was putting Paris up for a commendation when they were turned back into humans?

No idea. I haven't watched Threshold in years and I don't intend to - I value my sanity too much. Chuck Sonnenburg deserves to be on the New Year Honours list for his sacrifice.

After reading through the Agony Booth's review of Threshold, it seems I was right:

They share a chuckle-haha, nothing like turning into a salamander and fucking the captain, ah, good times-and Janeway reveals she's putting Paris in for a "commendation". Hmm, so I guess he must have been pretty hot in the salamander sack. (And boy, there's a sentence I never, ever saw myself having the opportunity to write.)

And yes, Chuck Sonnenburg deserves a freaking medal after watching that excuse for a TV episode numerous times and reviewing it.

I wish we could send him an invitation to join the . I REALLY think he'd fit right in here.

well, invite him. His e-mail is on the bottom of every page of his site.

I'm not sure that would be my place...........perhaps a moderator or a site admin would be a better choice. I'm just a peon after all.

At least you remember your place.

How do we know he's not already a member of the forum?

*looks around suspiciously*

Because there's no one using the username he uses on other sites, and he's not taken credit?

Anyone is perfectly free to invite anyone else to become a member of this forum, with our blessing. We Admins are membership whores, don't you know.

I have to say, I disagree with some of the Agony Booth's Threshold review. Threshold did not invent the idea of Warp 10 as infinite speed; Gene brought that in right back in the first days of TNG. And for the most part they've been very careful to stick to that limit. (Where No One Has Gone Before and All Good Things being the only exceptions I know of).

And he dismisses the idea of a 2% risk, saying it's absurdly low. "I mean, I'm pretty sure that every time I cross a street, there's at least a two percent chance I'll get hit by a bus." Well, no. A 2% chance is actually a pretty huge risk. If you odds of being hit by a bus when you crossed the street were 2%, then more than 60% of the population would have been hit by buses by the time they had crossed 50 streets. The risk Paris wanted to take was thousands of times greater than flying on a passenger jet. In fact it's rather higher than the odds of a space shuttle being destroyed, based on their track record thus far (2 losses in 123 missions = 1.62%)

Anyway, I don't want to be defending Threshold so I'll stop there!
