Sub Rosa, Gallifrey Gals Get Warped! S7ep14
Added 2023-05-09 17:12:56 +0000 UTCWelp... We've made it y'all.
It seems there was a little hiccup during the export of this episode. The first few minutes in the reaction the alignment will be a little off but it goes back to normal the moment the reaction starts!

Comments
I fully acknowledge that this is a mockable ep. That said I will never apologize for my love of this episode. It reminds me a bit of Phantom of the Opera, which us my favorite musical.

2024-10-04 19:30:18 +0000 UTCHad to watch this horribleness. Soooo bad, super creepy. Glad you did it after my birthday instead on on it... Lol

2023-07-04 05:59:15 +0000 UTCWhen Kat said, "We have a haunted candle," I burst out loud laughing. She didn't know the half of it. Also, Paula's facial expressions are priceless.

2023-05-10 20:37:06 +0000 UTCI must admit, I thought the "really bad" episode was still a little way off.
Graham Mills
2023-05-10 14:43:55 +0000 UTCAnd Troi sort of encouraging Beverly in this one? I mean, sure you can be progressive and "You do you," etc. But there's no point in life where Troi would say, "Eww, gross. Your grandmother?"
Joe Concepts
2023-05-10 14:20:18 +0000 UTC13:50 There's the immersion break right there. They're trying to recreate Old World ClichΓ© Scotland, but they're worried about a wee bit of dreich weather. (google the dialect word if you need to) 27:13 Sudden inexplicable low lying mist - fine. Below freezing point socialising - fine. Lack of gravity? Naw, not something we see in Scotland.
Graham Mills
2023-05-10 13:15:16 +0000 UTCLOL this is the first time i've seen this episode in decades. I literally never re-watch it. I just can't. They freakin' dug up grandma and she comes back to life possessed by her and her granddaughter's lover? I didn't even remember the sexual tones in it because i was so young when i first saw it that they just flew over my head, my god it makes it even worse.

2023-05-10 11:41:25 +0000 UTC"Guys. We need another Episode for Season 7 of The Next Generation." "We still have this script for an Episode of a Soap Opera that wasn't green lighted lying around. Lets rewrite it a little and make it into an Episode." "Sure. That'll do."
Red Claw
2023-05-10 08:03:00 +0000 UTCTo be fair to Frakes and Braga, the directors of episodes do NOT get to chose the episodes they'll direct, that is dictated by the schedule, and a writer in a large staffed writers room may get his name attached to a script even if a number of the writers take a pass at it. Season Seven suffers because a lot of the writers that bolstered the show from seasons three to six have left to work on the other Trek shows, leaving Jeri Taylor to become showrunner this season... and I hate to put down a female writer, but recalling some of her Voyager stories... she's willing to write some dumb stuff. One of the actors of a character she's written for decided that their character was bipolar in order to explain some of the inconsistent writing. D.C. Fontana she ain't. But yes, who WOULDN'T want a family candle fuck ghost? -Logline for this episode. Also, Paula doesn't like possession stories, so there's another knock towards DS9 for her. Also, can you IMAGINE Frakes directing his good friend McFadden during that ghost sex? How is that not the most awkward thing in the world for them to talk about?

2023-05-10 07:06:48 +0000 UTCSeems to me like "Mayfair Witches".
Tristan Rose
2023-05-10 04:54:00 +0000 UTCsaw this episode when i was 12 or 13. Loved it because it was about ghost. Only later revisiting tng an adult did I realize she was making love to a ghost.
myzeplin
2023-05-10 04:52:25 +0000 UTCYes, this episode is trash...nothing very redeeming about it. The odd part is that it vaguely reminds me of the movie "High Spirits" which had a little bit of a similar plot in part of it and that came out in 1988 (it was on TV frequently when I was a kid)
Chris Lane- Venturi 3D
2023-05-10 03:26:09 +0000 UTCI love the idea of the old Scottish Planet too... it kind of reminds me of Doctor Who, like in the Christmas Carol episode there's just a VIctorian planet so Scrooge would make sense. And as for a "gothic Ghost story," I'm not opposed to that either, but this was NOT it. TV Ratings didn't start until 1996, adnt hey were controversial at the time too.
Chris Neumann
2023-05-10 01:04:46 +0000 UTCFavorite part of this episode is how you can tell that the actors know its a stupid episode by the way they say the lines, especially Riker saying the fog just rolled in

2023-05-09 21:21:47 +0000 UTCAh Sub Rosa⦠best way to watch this is drunk and just tear it apart.
Darren Seal
2023-05-09 20:26:23 +0000 UTCThis episode is the best Star Trek episode ever made. More than any other episode, it perfectly captures Gene Roddenberry's hopes for humanity's future. No poverty, no war, no prejudice. Just a candle ghost tricking generations of women into having virtual sex with him. π
Stephen Kronfeld
2023-05-09 19:15:57 +0000 UTCTrash, absolute trash. Nuff said.
Pickupthepieces76
2023-05-09 19:09:47 +0000 UTCI will say some of the best episodes to hear people talk about are the ones that aren't good! I've seen this one dozens of times because I just love Beverly. The Beverly/Picard stuff in this is good, if minor. Gates McFadden of course gives it her all, even when the material is terrible. There could have been a good episode in here, without the ghost sexing all the women in a family. That just kills the whole thing. It's so gross and creepy and comes off as weird that Troi encourages Beverly early in the episode.
DC
2023-05-09 19:08:50 +0000 UTCWelcome my friends, to the bottom of the barrel. There is no defense of this episode. It's a bad idea, executed poorly, with very little in the way of logic or sense. It's just... weird. I recall never rewatching this episode, and I remember why. It's good to have a bottom, and this episode makes you appreciate Star Trek when it's great.
Jay Fleming
2023-05-09 19:05:55 +0000 UTCI swear they had a bunch of lame plot ideas that had been kicking around for years and then they said, "Eh, it's the final season. Let's just go with them." At least we have a very good episode coming up next week! Just wipe this one from your mind with a damp cloth and toss it away!

2023-05-09 18:52:58 +0000 UTCI recall at the time this originally aired, or even a little before, there were rumblings of plagiarism from the Anne Rice novel "The Witching Hour" (which, full disclosure, I've never read and probably never would have even heard of but for its association with this episode.) Not sure if this was just fannish accusations, or if actual legal action was taken.
Ken Quick
2023-05-09 18:51:51 +0000 UTCWas waiting for the faces Kat was going to pull during this episode. Wasn't disappointed.
TheHimble
2023-05-09 18:44:22 +0000 UTCSo Grandma's boy toy is making a move on... Cringe worthy much? And then your ex-boss wants to meet your new BF?
Mark Ten
2023-05-09 18:43:44 +0000 UTCOk, I remember the episode being bad but somehow I repressed most of the dialogue, holy crap.
Makhiel
2023-05-09 18:25:09 +0000 UTCIt was always a shame that they've mentioned Dr. Selar on numerous occasions since The Schizoid Man but they never asked Suzie Plakson back after K'Ehleyr was killed. She wasn't back until she played a Q in ST: Voyager.
Bruce Bromley
2023-05-09 18:19:16 +0000 UTCThis is another example of the writers revisiting something or someone that was mentioned in the first season. Like Nikolai in "Heart of Glory," Beverly told about her grandmother back in season one's "Arsenal of Freedom." Again, the writers revisiting old character development before the end of the series.
Judge Brehon
2023-05-09 17:53:32 +0000 UTCThere maybe other episodes in the franchise objectively worse but this is by far the dumbest hour of Star Trek. Just becuase an idea is different doesn't mean it's good.
Mike
2023-05-09 17:52:03 +0000 UTCWell, you've now endured one of the worst episodes of the series and while there are still a few more stinkers, you're past the worst of it. I was thinking about it and, in retrospect, I think that a lot of what is going on in Season 7 is that they knew that the show was ending so they wanted to try a lot of different things. And say what you will about Sub Rosa, it's very different from anything they've done before. The unevenness of Season 7 I think is a result of that sort of experimentation where a lot of it fails (badly in this case) but some of it pays off. I don't know how far they've watched, but one of my all-time favorite episodes is coming up and it is also very different from any previous episode they've done.

2023-05-09 17:42:27 +0000 UTCIIRC, the plot was literally stolen from a Jackie Collins novel.
Philip Abelanet
2023-05-09 17:39:48 +0000 UTCAs an adolescent watching this episode when it first aired, I admit to appreciating at least some of the scenes... But even then I wondered what the hell this was supposed to be. Sci-fi meets cheesy romance novel?
Joe Concepts
2023-05-09 17:30:45 +0000 UTCCringy episode for sure

2023-05-09 17:28:00 +0000 UTCThe day has come!
Makhiel
2023-05-09 17:22:53 +0000 UTCI don't care what anyone says, I still get a kick out of this episode. The sheer wackiness, the angry neighbor with the candle and the undead grandmother - it's like a fever dream (or nightmare lol).
