Now I get it. Before I just knewed that it have something to do with loner character and noir.

Ah, he actually edited the video to explain the joke with a subtitle.

Because the bronies wanted his head with a pitchfork for that.

No. It was because allmost nobody get it.

Correct. He even admitted he screwed up the joke.

Though I would like to see his thoughts on Return of Harmony, considering Q is in that story.

Ah, so Star Trek (2009)'s review is coming out until the very last day of the year. How...well, I would say how strangely appropriate, but I wouldn't know why.

I wonder what this mysterious Christmas review will be?

Also, it's nice to see B5 again, especially that episode.

That would be first B5 review what I watched after seeing that episode.

Horever I prefer more DW reviews.

I wonder when Chuck will make review of another animated show.

I'd love him to review some Star Trek The Animated Series

He mention it on his main page on YT that he is not familiar with TAS but when someone make donation he could make review. TAS is not worse than TOS so whant to see Chuck opinion about this.

If I remember right, I think he said the biggest reason he won't review any of TAS is simply that he doesn't have DVD's/Tapes of the episodes to use.

So if we all chip in and get them for him...

I'm already waiting for a review I paid donated for lol

You donated $$$$ or did you send him the dvds themselves?

Donated $$$$ for a TNG review. He has the dvds for those.

What episode? (Good one or bad one?)

Darmok. Which I consider a good episode despite a mind numbingly stupid gimmick.

Definitely a decent one there, and a good one to watch him go at, plenty of good stuff and plenty of stuff to make fun of.

I'm just glad the episode I'd most be willing to 'donate' to see is coming up soon. Duet

Darmok? It's good episode, I don't see it being stupid.

I hope someone requested Space Above And Beyond episode.

Coz the good episode hinges on something stupid: A metaphor-based language. How do you do math through references to legends and history? How do you do engineering. Heck, how do you TEACH children the stories if the language requires you to know the stories to understand it? How do you teach kids that "Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra" means cooperation without telling them the story? And if you CAN tell them the story, then you evidently don't need to be using metaphores all the time.

It's a good episode, but the whole language bit doesn't make the slightest sense.

I don'y see that metafor based language as stupid. They propably first know meanings of methaphor and later they learn about those stories.

Also I will not complain about this because it was cleaver way to avoid Universal Translator (horever I'm not sure it could really work).
