I believe because Worf was a regular character for all of TNG and over half of DS9, not to mention Picard season 3, Michael Dorn has the most episode appearances of any Star Trek actor.
I was going to argue Majel Barret, but this article agrees with you
https://www.imdb.com/list/ls075838523/
TL;DR top five:
5 movies
Vs. Patrick Stewart's 4. Weren't there only four films with the Next Generation crew...?
Even I forgot Michael Dorn is in Star Trek VI. You just can't escape the Worf.
Oh, right, because Prodigy did 20 half hour episodes per season instead of Picard’s 10 hour long episodes per season, Mulgrew was able to get ahead of Stewart.
Majel Barrett may have given him a run for his money.
Admittedly, she is often heard and not seen (except as Nurse Chapel and Lwaxana Troi), but the computer has got at least one line in pretty much every TNG and Voyager episode, and a good chunk of DS9. It would be an interesting turbo-nerd deep dive to see who has more episodes under their belt, but certainly not one I'm doing right now.
Statues?!
He was always hard for those Bajoran women. 🥁
~I’ll show myself out of the nearest airlock.~
A lot of things lasted longer than the confederacy, sadly firefly is not among them 😢
It did if you count the span from the show to the movie.
The comics are a whole different gorram mess though
Where's the fundraiser for this ... I would donate to this in a heart beat
This is the flag I fly at home:
Exactly! Flags are about celebrating culture, not violence!
... was COBRA ever friendly? I don't think it rings quite the same as Klingons.
The Klingon empire wasnt ever really nice either. The Federation just looked the other way and ignored the billions/trillions of conquered and oppress people behind the scenes by citing the Prime Directive.
That's a lie. The Federation started the War of Human Aggression. The Klingon Empire has only ever been honorable and awesome. You guys are the ones who fired first at the Battle of the Binary Fort Sumters. There is zero credible evidence that the klingons ever oppressed anyone.
The Klingon Empire will rise again!!!
Cobra had many non-combat initiatives! They ran a number of successful shell companies, they were excellent stewards of many historical relics and people, and they even provided no-cost mental health services for wayward sailors!
Perhaps not. But you have to admit: they stuck to masking protocols during the pandemic while G.I. Joe ran around like maniacs with no regimentation, uniforms, or masks.
“Worf Bat’leth Stabbing General Lee at Appomattox”
Stone and tempered steel, 2025, c/tenforward
Saved by the Bell lasted longer than the confederacy
The real tragedy is that they both lasted too long.
True. Could have done without The College Years.
Add a bat'leth and I'm in.
Mr Dorn also has this 12 year role:
Sidebar: does anyone know why I see broken images in Voyager on Android but not the web client in Firefox on the same phone?
Because I hotlinked to something that doesn't even say it's an image file instead of uploading.
https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/c/c0/Marcus.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20050301210424
If I sanitized it by removing that revision latest stuff it might've been fine but voyager likely didn't know what to do with that link
Oddly enough, if you save the image via Voyager for Android, it's perfectly viewable.
Helpful, thanks friend.
I call dibs on the statue of worf waffle-stomping alexander out the airlock on DS9!
Lol this is all I need to read to want to watch star trek
Isn't there actually a statue of James Tiberius Kirk in the Iowa town he was supposed to have been from? If Kirk has a statue, so should Worf. And Picard. And Sisko. And Janeway. And...
There's a statue of Janeway in Bloomington, Indiana
Fun fact, the actress who plays Captain Janeway was born in Iowa.
I think the people crying heritage are also talking about the entire period of slave driven agriculture and industry, which the confederacy was formed to defend and came to symbolize.
Not trying to be a spoiler or anything but I hate to see badly-formulated attacks on these people which they will easily bat aside.
True, but making them say "the heritage I'm talking about is racism" is the kind of the unmasking this gotcha was going for anyway.
Their "it was about states rights" bs also kinda deflates pretty quickly when it was about the state's rights...for slavery. As in, it's specifically, clearly outright stated in some of their Articles of Succession.
Yes it’s worse. All I’m sayings not to try to catch them on a technicality. “The confederacy only lasted 5 years!”
The Trail of Tears was shorter than that but no one would ever trivialize it as a part of someone’s heritage. The Civil War was the deadliest one in history for Americans. A lot of impact can happen in a short time.
You can throw as many facts as you want, but “these people” don’t care about truth or justice. They just want their white supremacy back at any cost.
Bionicle lasted for 10 years, from 2001 to 2011. It had a G2 reboot that lasted 2 years. So a total of 12 years of Bionicle.
But that's only officially.
Bionicle is kept alive by its fans well after its cancellation twice-over, with fan animations coming out and the community literally 3D printing their own parts.
So that's a total of 24 years of Bionicle.
I want statues of Tahu, Mata Nui, Takanuva, and the Kanohi Ignika!
But that’s only officially.
oh great, one of those "the Bionicle will rise again" guys, huh? look you're welcome to your, er, thing, but keep the damned bits out of the ACTUAL LEGO bin. Real lego doesn't have spikes and shit.
Oh considering how LEGO fucked the Bionicle fandom recently, it's obvious that the only way it'll "rise" again is as a soulless, corporate, empty shell.
But LEGO Technic is actual LEGO. I can't help it if you can't understand that. :)
oof I didn't think anyone would read that literally.
but uh,
LEGO Technic
is not bionicle spikey bits.
and I also keep technic out because they're too useful to get lost in the great big bin.
Please, yes.
