S4E10 – Our Man Bashir – Teaser
Manage episode 492365251 series 2410726
This week, Alice and Skyler discuss what's going on, when to call the wambulance, which Comic Con's the current hot Comic Con, the proper pronunciation of "Ba'tleth," how to live in a storage unit, and much, much more. Behind the paywall, they get into DS9 season four, episode ten, "Our Man Bashir," which neither of them particularly loved. Together, they discuss the risks of doing a James Bond homage on a TV budget, the sexism of Bashir's creepy little Holosuite fantasy, horny sax tunes, whether or not Vero would find this episode strange, how embarrassing acting can be, the DS9 crew taking a trip to the Weekend Update set, getting absolutely rocked by Austin Powers, and much, much more.
