    Anything to do with Romulans is amazing, theyve always been my favorite Star Trek foe!

    The episode with Troi as a Romulan was fantastic. Presumably Troi would have been fluent in the language to get away as a spy. 😉
    I thought the Romulan captain was great, would have loved to seen her character developed and explored.

      frictionRx5 Correct. The actress is Carolyn Seymour. She played 4 different characters in Star Trek. Captain Toreth in the episode with Troi, Captain Taris in the episode about Iconia, Minister Mirasta Yale in TNG: First Contact and Mrs. Templeton in VGR: Cathexis & Persistence of Vision.

      TriAngulum Audio Studios Indeed. I wish she voiced Taris in Star Trek Online. Or maybe she could get a small role in Discovery?

    Decided after the Picard release that I'd brush up on some Romulan lore (honestly who doesn't love Romulans?), so glad I found this video/channel! I'm probably going to be bingeing this between episodes.

    I just love the way Star Trek mirrors our own human political machinations. You can almost always pinpoint what conflict they're referring to.

    I love the episode with the Prometheus! I know, it isn't a popular one for most Trek fans but I love it and very much appreciate you putting the very significant reference in your background.
    The editing must take hours! Thank you for all your time in putting these together, man. It's no mean feat!

      Well since STO isnt Canon, you cant rely on those conspiracy theories :P

    •  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      True, but it’s a possible future.

    • @TriAngulumStudiosAudioComics
      @TriAngulumStudiosAudioComics  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      No more or less possible then anything else... Thus NO one would know anything if they play STO :P As a side note im only teasing you really... Yes it isnt canon etc, but it's not really that big of a deal however most likely nothing from STO will EVER show up in the Picard Series. To do so CBS would then have to pay royalties along with buying the rights to the stories they own, that wont happen as it would be a bad business decision! :)

    The Two Shiar also seems to be a similar outfit structurally (not tactically) equivalent to the Vulcan V'Shar whose exploits in Archer's time seemed to make the Vulcans almost as dangerous (think P'Jem and the intelligence unit spying on Andor). Also, these intelligence units almost mirror the CIA/DHS and the former Soviet agency the KGB. How life imitates art. Is there also a Klingon equivalent? Or does their warrior philosophy prevent "spying" and opting instead to simply invade and destroy?

    • @Not-Ap
      @Not-Ap 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      There had to be. It wouldn't make any sense for them not to have one. The Klingon Empire had scientific caste, a warrior caste, a legal caste, and etc... So it wouldn't be that of stretch to say they had intelligence branch too or branches. As for there warrior ethos of honor, I'm sure there variations of it that allowed each caste or class to attain honor even if it wasn't in battle, or else there society simply could not function.

    Section 31 is not like the Tal Shiar. The Tal Shiar is at least part of the government of the Empire where as Section 31 is an illegal non-governmental organization.
