Agree with all of this.

I would, however, like to try that game that had the whole crew hooked except for young Wesley. Everyone was like aroused all the time, what could have possibly gone wrong?

who allowed families and children on this death trap of a ship?! This is highly negligent.

A holodeck would lead to the extinction of our race. Who would want to have sex with human women who could complain. Holo Scarlett Johansson is waiting. Holo Marilyn Monroe is waiting...

I can appreciate why he might feel that such a decision is (ironically) reductionist, in a way, but I think Pegg is right when he says introducing a new gay character would have left them defined by that.

It's nothing to do with Pegg, but I would be more impressed if the captain of the new show was gay or something.

A gay captain on the new show seems like the logical next step.

It's nauseating this whole flavour of the month 'including a gay character because _____'.

If they do it in Star Wars i'm out.
