I'm partial to Blazin' Bev.

Once you imagine that she just smoked right before every scene she's in, her mannerisms make so much more sense.

Kinda like Jeff Bridges in Lebowski. He'd ask the Coen's "Should I look like I just did a J?" then rub his eyes and make cinema magic.

I still think it's funny to think about the fact that Beverly finds out a ghost has been dickin down all her grandma's for several hundred years. Her reaction? 🤤🤤🤤🤤

Must be genetic

Not just any ghost but the same ghost her grandmother was having sex with.

It's all around an uncomfortable episode. Lol

And several older generations of her family... those apples don't fall far from the tree.

To be fair, people did call her "the dancing doctor".

You cut off the best part, where some random ensign asks if she's the one who had sex with a ghost!

Where I found this, people were suggesting that the last two panels were too on the nose and ruined the impact of punchline, and I think I agree. I cut it, but here's the whole thing. Y'all be the judges:

Nah, I like it. It kinda ties it up in a little bow. We all get it, but then there's the cherry on top.

[-] Nastybutler@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

My favorite part is how they censor "fuck" but not "ghostfucker". Consistency, conshmistancy

I just like it cuz it emphasizes the fact that is the only thing they care about, but both ways are funny

[-] pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 year ago

I agree, the last two panels are totally unnecessary.

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I like the full one better.

[-] cordlesslamp@lemmy.today 5 points 1 year ago

I agree with you, too. Your version is way funnier. The last two original panels kinda ruin the punch line for me.

[-] wahming@monyet.cc 4 points 1 year ago

The full one is better. Also, this is how stuff goes missing on the Internet, bits and pieces

Gates McFadden is clearly the unsung Hero of the series for me.

Both as character and as actress.

I don't think I appreciated her enough on the first watch, but she really is.

Did you know that she was the Director of Choreography for Labyrinth?

[-] BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yes! I love that movie so much.

[-] heeplr@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

She played Beverly Crusher
