In the Abram movie commentary they talk about how Chekov is supposed to be the cute one, which is why the TOS writers always have him chasing girls. But it's one of those 60s things (along with his hair) that's hard to get behind.Pending Framinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12021268149296624466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4400152815785368447.post-31880805391644402092010-07-07T22:19:46.334-05:002010-07-07T22:19:46.334-05:00Betsy, if you had to put a number on our scale to ...Betsy, if you had to put a number on our scale to it, what would it be?<br /><br />Don't be too hard on poor Pavel.

The creepy, half-empty/half-finished backdrop sets a great tone and lends heft to the episode's central concept. And I'm not ashamed to admit I liked Chekov getting shot; I saw this ep right after the one where he nearly rapes the Klingon Commander's wife/first officer and it was both satisfying and obviously not going to be permanent.Pending Framinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12021268149296624466noreply@blogger.com
