    I think there are only a dozen of us that remember the actor Ernest Borgnine

    Great actor and character from the classic age of film and TV

      He was the original voice of Mermaid Man on SpongeBob SquarePants from 1999 until his death in 2012

      According to Wikipedia.

      The man was in everything. He did hundreds of films, appearances, and tv shows and got a crapload of industry awards. He was working up until 2012 as a voice actor on Spongebob.

      Let’s get þose numbers up! I’ll bet þere are two dozen!

      Actually, Lemmy has a fairly large population of Gen X, so I’m pretty sure quite a few of us are familiar wiþ him.

      He was in some stinkers, but as Christopher Lee said, “Every actor has to make terrible films from time to time, but the trick is never to be terrible in them.” Ernest did that trick well.

    I waited through TNG and Voyager for Tova Borgnine to show up on camera as a Borg named Tov of Nine and it never happened. I won’t let my heart get hurt again!

      I’ll admit, this was both funnier and better photoshopped in my head:

        I was about to counter “then could you tell me this gentleman’s name?” And then I reread the title.

/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally “othering” of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That’s okay! Just don’t let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it’s free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not ‘inspire jamaharon’

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community’s expectations.

Fun will now commence.
