Originally, this bottom-related post was just going to be an aside in another post, as it only featured one pert posterior, that of the rather yummy Lieutenant Bryce (portrayed by the equally yummy Ronnie Rowe Jr.), communications officer (just like Lt. Uhura) aboard the USS Discovery.

| Here's Lt. Bryce and his delightful derrière, along with (right to left) Commander Saru, Captain Pike, and Admiral Cornwell |
But then, a recent episode displayed gratuitous shots - bordering on the obscene! - of the new Spock's spacesuit clad buttocks. I, along with many others, had to reach for the smelling salts. And then lost several hours wearing the pause and rewind buttons out...

| Spock and his foster sister, star-of-the-show, Michael Burnham |

| First glimpse of that arse! Look's like Michael's seen something else, though... |

| Oh... |
 |
| My... |
 |
| Gods... |
Say what you like about Ethan Peck Spock (yes, Gregory Peck's grandson), but with an arse like that, he's here to stay!

While we're here, we might as well have a one more photo of Captain Christopher "Silver Fox" Pike to ogle, too (and one of Anson Mount who plays Pike so well):

I need to go for a lay down...

ReplyDeleteI'm diving over the starboard bow. But for the Vulcans, not the Klingons!
DeleteNew Spock? YIKES! What happened to Zachary Quinto?
ReplyDeletePoor Sylar has been relegated to an alternate universe.
DeleteCaptain Pike could shoot me with his laser pistol where when and however he wants .
ReplyDeleteI'm holding out for his big guns. I hear Pike has a phaser cannon!
DeleteWell this has cheered my Friday morning! Nice buns!

P.S You might have something in the post today...or tomorrow?
Ooh! Yet another reason to look forward to seeing my surly, sexy postman!
DeleteHe came and delivered!!! I am now the lucky owner of a "Portrait of the Universe. On a chair..." - Thank you, thank you, a million thank yous!!!
DeleteI may show a little snippet on the blog, if I may?
Phew!!!! Of course you may!! I have a whole blog post prepared for it, which I will share next week now that I know it arrived safely!!
DeleteSx
Oooh!
ReplyDeleteIt's at times like this being a witch and being able to see the unseen comes in useful!
And not a pair of crystal balls in sight!
DeleteNew Spock ? I had no idea that "Spock" was so hairy. Capt'n Pike seems to be a doller Hecht ...
ReplyDeleteI must admit, hairy Spock gave me a bit of a surprise, but the beard has grown on me (well, not on me, exactly, but you know what I mean).
DeleteI tried looking up "doller Hecht". I found that Hecht = Pike, but doller seems to be a surname, Daniels? Googling both words together brings up an origami flower (folder out of a Dollar bill) designed by Stephen Hecht. What does it all mean?
Jack ? No, sorry, I have no business with Mr Daniels for a ages now.
DeleteI startpaged "doller Hecht" and the first was this site - a recipe for grilled pike.
Nobody wants to grill Mr Pike, that's for sure.
Yes it is a misbegotten play on words. "Pike" translates as "Hecht", as you correctly identified.
"Toll" - translations here - means "great", "awesome" etcetc. Ein doller Hecht is a, slightly ironic, impressive person, often self-proclaimed. The already linked dictionaire translates "toller Hecht" as "stunner" ; the soft "d" brakes the seriousness of the claim a bit.
BTW, as Franconian I have to warn you about these softifications : It is a cruel joke of Mrs Nature, but we do change "t" for "d", "p" for "b" ; so if you should it ever hear spoken, it might be a little confusing, but it is for other German speaking people ( = the bloody rest) too.
No worries IDV, I just saied that Mr Pike is presentable.
Ah, it was the soft 'd' that threw me! I knew I must have misinterpreted somewhere, and that was it.
DeleteStill, it's always good to work for a "presentable" outcome. And Mr Pike, is presentable, indeed!
