When the Vulcans and the Andorians start fighting over the same shitty planet, Captain Archer gets called in on special diplomatic duty and no one really knows why. But when Shran releases a hostage and tries to open a conversation with Ambassador Soval, Suzie Plakson breaks rank and reveals she's a war-hungry anti-Vulcite.

Tread Perilously's Ampersand Month continues with an episode of the obscure sitcom Love & War called "I Love a Parade." The gang manages to get a fairly decent spot for the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, even if they all forgot to buy coffee with their donuts. The festivities take a turn when a random woman asks Jack to hoist her son up on his shoulders so he can see the floats. She soon disappears, leaving the others to search for her. Meanwhile, Dana and Jack discuss the best course action. Will they end up raising the child as their own or will a Thanksgiving miracle save the day? Erik and Justin get lost in the woods right quick. The show's supporting cast, which includes Joanna Gleason, Charles Robinson, and Suzie Plakson, gets high marks. Leads Annie Potts and Jay Thomas end up not as lauded, although both get discussed a great deal. Potts proves to be a Tread Perilously sweetheart while Thomas ... well, Thomas is another matter all together. Justin eulogizes the sitcom as a format while Erik suggests Love & War represents its lowest ebb. They try to re-conceive the show for Plakson and Michael Nouri (who also appears in the episode) and find a better use for the rest of the cast.

Has your creativity felt stifled lately? Have you been looking for the breakthrough in your ability to access higher energies? Do you wish you could press a button and dissolve all creative blocks and generate new ideas? Well, today's show is for you! Instead of cattle prodding the muse, or playing hard to get…let's light some candles, play soft music and ROMANCE THE MUSE! To help us do this, I called on the most talented human on the planet…Suzie Plakson. If you don't know her, here's a little background… 7,000 years ago, Suzie Plakson started life as an actor pounding the pavements of New York City –she did tons of temp jobs, some improv comedy, some off-off-off Broadway theatre fiascos, played Maleficent in a Disney spectacular at Radio City Music Hall, and at long last landed the lead in a national tour, playing four characters opposite the musical theatre legend, Anthony Newley – a turn of events which dropped her off in Hollywood. Since then, she's appeared in things like Mad About You, Wag the Dog, Love and War, Dinosaurs, Everybody Loves Raymond, How I Met Your Mother, Star Trek, a bunch of other guest star roles, and a few seriously bad pilots. As a multi-media artist, she creates sculptures large and small in her otherwise unused oven, sings and writes different styles of songs – most recently the pop song/empowerment anthem U*B*U. She's written short stories, poetry, a solo theatre show, and an alternative country rock album, out of which sprang the music video DidnwannaDoIt! She's also written and narrated her metaphysical myth for the eternally young at heart:  The Return of King Lillian. www.suzieplakson.com Facebook Find out more about Kelly Sullivan Walden (Doctor Dream) Best Selling author, Dream Expert, Media Personality Learn more about your ad choices.

Ever have an episode of TNG that made you so angry you had to podcast about it? It's time for “Reunion” in this cathartic episode of ST:TNGeez . . . K'Ehleyr's back, and she's not alone. Meet Worf's son, Alexander! But Ambassador K'Ehleyr isn't here to collect child support from Worf. She's here to stop a Klingon civil war! Old man K'mpec, head of the Klingon ruling council, is on death's door, and his replacements are hotter than a two peckered Targ to replace him. K'mpec throws one last curve ball by appointing Picard Arbiter of Succession. It's up to Johnny to navigate the murky waters of Klingon politics while also solving the mystery of who poisoned old man K'mpec. And while Picard has Duras and Gowron jockeying for influence and advantage, Worf has K'Ehleyr asking questions about his discommendation and Alexander asking how to use a Bat'leth. Will Picard be able to choose K'mpec's successor? Will Worf be able to handle Alexander every other weekend? Will any of the other regulars have anything to do?

Some of the best creative ideas have been sparked by dreams. Mark Twain was an avid dreamer and credits many of his stories to dreams he had. Paul McCartney dreamed up the tune of Yesterday while lying in his bed one night. The concept of Avatar came from a dream from James Cameron’s mind, and there are countless other examples too numerous to mention here.Suzie Plakson saw an image of a red-headed girl in a dream one night and that one picture expanded in her mind until it bore fruit in a book The Return of King Lillian.

Bio Looks at the Genius of Gene Roddenberry's "Star Trek" On June 3, 1969, the final episode of Star Trek aired. But while it was the end of the original series television series, it was just the beginning of the franchise. Since that day 45 years ago, fans have continued to watch the adventures of Kirk, Spock, Bones, and the original Enterprise 1701. From those adventures we've learned about life, how to understand and respect others, and how to build technology that has changed our world. To mark this anniversary, Laurie Ulster has written a piece on the BIO website that highlights some of the genius of Gene Roddenberry's creation, and always what she has gained from watching the series over the years. Read the full retrospective on the BIO website.   Creation Beams Into the Windy City for Star Trek Chicago Star Trek fans in Chicago can meet some of their favorite actors in person this weekend as Creation Entertainment's official convention comes to the Windy City.
