**Dr. Phlox**

like the Dr Phil show, Dr phlox offers meaningless advice to people who didn’t ask. “Sometimes you have to shout at the horse.” “You can’t butter both sides of the toast without it messing up the tablecloth.” “If you’re hysterical, make it historical.”

I can’t stand Dr Phil. :wally

I like Dr Phlox

The Mild Kingdom: Each week the crew encounters a violently aggressive alien species; a certain amount of fighting and jumping about is involved until one of the crew remembers that those phase pistols have a Stun setting, too (inspired by the 11/6 episode… morons…).

**Space Law and Order: STVVU (Star Trek Viewer Victims Unit)**

Star Trek viewing is protected by two equally important factions. The shits, who write the shows; and the dung eating pinhead network executives, who ruin them even further. These are their heavily nitpicked stories.

(save _Firefly_ it’s an awesome show)
