Something you only know in a parallel dimension.

Is it worth the money? You're going to spend something like 1/3 of your time on it. Make it a good one.

Yes, SNW is a worthy spiritual successor to TOS.

I'll give you two suggestions at opposite ends of the spectrum:

• Neon Genesis Evangelion is a wonderful show. It starts out as a giant robot series, but then moves in on examining how the characters are broken mentally (as in, they're already broken, not let's break stable people). Does have a tendency to depress people, but they generally feel it was a good experience.
• Just about any Studio Ghibli movie. Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, Princess Mononoke, Castle in the Sky, My Neighbor Totoro, Kiki's Delivery Service, Howl's Moving Castle. Some of these are more kids movies, but adults love them. Others have more adult themes. Stick to the ones directed by Hayao Miazaki. Warning: Grave of the Fireflys will make you cry and leave you devastated.

This episode exists because of the stupid Starfleet rule of having traumatized veterans of the war have to interact positively with the supposedly bad-to-good turned war crime enemy. That's a classic example of people acting stupid for "plot" (e.g. we couldn't have this episode without the stupid bit).

Pet rats are awesome! They're domesticated and used to interacting with people. They have distinct personalities and are very loving. Sadly, they only live about 2.5 to 3 years.

My first wife would get this thing about every 3 years or so where a contact would migrate around to the back of her eye. This would then be followed by about an hour of her trying to get it back front-and-center. Just the thought of it is enough to horrify me.
