That's it, that's the show.

I appreciate his contributions so much. Glad he’s had one nutrek role but it’s not nearly enough.

Jeffrey Combs

He played a ludicrous percentage of the recurring and guest characters on "Deep Space Nine," and hit "Voyager" and "Enterprise" as well. He's back in "Lower Decks," voicing an evil computer.

He also stared in "Dr. Mordrid," a hilariously bad "Dr. Strange" ripoff lampooned in the "Mystery Science Theater 3000" reboot.

Confession #144

"Agimus and Peanut Hamper had more chemistry in only two episodes than Julian and the Dax women in the entire DS9 series."

So, since there have been many star trek actors who either played a huge amount of roles or who became important directors, I was wondering:

[trekbait]

A starship scanned this probe. You won't believe what happened next!

This article was generated with M5 and glanced at briefly by one overworked Betazoid before posting.

On Stardate 57995.8 the USS Strawbery encountered a mysterious alien probe along the Romulan Neutral Zone in the Alpha Quadrant. When the Staberry, an Oberth class battlecruiser, scanned the probe with their buzzard collectors a shocking thing happened! 

The humanoid units comprising the ship’s bridge crew suddenly found themselves in a forest on Earth dressed as famous folk heroes. The captain played the part of Mark Zuckerberg while his crew were Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Richard Daystrom and Arik Soong. 

The crew of the Stabrery were greeted by the ghost of the mighty Landru who explained that in order to escape his trap, the crew must complete an adventure. The captain’s merry band of tech bros must venture across the land and ensure the primitive humanoids understand the benefits of the machines taking over their livelihoods for the sake of the King’s profits.

In the first village, they found the people trying to fight off Nomad. Nomad was busy with the thankless task of converting the villagers to forms which drained fewer resources and provided useful fertilizer for the farms. Nomad had optimised farm production by 300% by reducing local demand and selling the crops to a neighbouring town which he had previously scorched the farms of. The captain did not succeed in convincing the villagers of how Nomad was making their lives better so instead was encouraged by Landru to assist Nomad in his task.

In the fifth village, the Stawby bridge crew met AGIMUS. AGIMUS was underappreciated for the work he was doing in making the villager’s tasks as monotonous as possible. The captain explained to the villagers that AGIMUS’s work meant they no longer had to do joyful things like create art or music and that thanks to AGIMUS’s work increasing their productivity they could generate twice the fuel for AGIMUS as they had done previously. The villagers asked why that meant they couldn’t work work half the time or have twice the wages but AGIMUS said that would be lazy of them. AGIMUS then created a picture of a puppy with 7 legs and the crew moved on.

Outside the second and final village, they found Alice. Alice had been expelled from the village after she took over as the local doctor and all of her patients started dying. She explained that she was working on the best medical information social media had to offer but she couldn’t get it right every time. She asked for help attacking the village to kick out the sickly humanoids and replace them with more reliable synethics. 

After the crew completed the final of their eight tasks, Landru appeared and said that they had passed the test, and thus would now be decommissioned as organic beings. The Strrabery’s captain was surprised, as they’d done everything the computers had asked of them. But as Landru explained, now that they had helped with the transition they were redundant.

We hope you liked this tale and we are sure you are looking forward to the latest computer upgrades the M-5 Multitronic Unit can offer to your crew.

AGIMUS acts towards Boimler like GLaDOS towards Chell in Portal 2.

Jeffrey Combs on his first appearance on Lower Decks

from The 7th Rule

(In the full interview, we learn that Jeffrey likes black licorice and he gives us a Shatner impression)

[BEGIN TRANSCRIPT]

RYAN T HUSK: Jeff, obviously your character [Agimus] is not dead. That little black box is locked away. By the way, shout out to the Daystrom Institute. That was really cool that they said that.

JEFFREY COMBS: Yes

RTH: So they've left the door open for your character coming back, possibly. Is that--I'm sure that may not have been something they've discussed. But have you considered that maybe you'll be getting a call in the future to reprise that role, or maybe another one, and how quickly would you say "yes"?

JC: Well, uh. [quickly] Let me think about it yes!

[Ryan and Cirroc Lofton laugh]

JC: Uh, I had a really, I had a good, I had a really good time. Uh, it's, uh. Who wouldn't want to do that again? Especially the way it turned out. So, uh, I'm here, I'd look forward to it. And, uh, you know. I'm happy that fans are happy. I'm happy they're happy. It's good. It's good to be back working in the Star Trek realm.

I love episodes like this where were occasionally reminded that the main four are actually extremely intelligent, especially Boimler who's usually just used as comic relief (mostly in earlier seasons)
