I choose to believe this now. It's canon

Wait, so who was he in TNG? He must have been there, but it's just not coming to me.

negativenull@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 1y (6 replies)

I don't think he was in TNG

You sure about that?

Not mine.

Edit: He did, however, audition for Riker and lost to Frakes.

I'm... I'm just not sure how I feel about that one, kinda makes my brain itchy... And, oh wow! Love Combs but trek would not have been the same. Who else would then go to play all those amazing characters? And, would we still have the Riker maneuver?

The series maybe wouldn't have grown a beard

That a great bit of trivia there

negativenull@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y

That's amazing!

This is like Worf and his 2nd place trophy.

This somehow feels wrong, but all the evidence proves otherwise. :(

edit: Man, he was 4 different characters in DS9, even I missed some.

edit2: Nope, IMDB says no Combs in TNG, what a Conundrum.

He's the original changeling

Just to escape the fun for a second, they were actually named after Matt Jeffries, the man who designed the original TOS enterprise and a lot of the look of the show.

Also, any piece of TOS tech they didn't have a name for was called a Feinberger, after TOS property master Irving Feinberg.

Is that X-Files? The one with the guy eating livers?

SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 1 pts · 1y

Yeah, the description of Jeffries crawling out of an air vent made me think of it. Tooms.

I didn't believe it until I read the last sentence

partial_accumen@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 1y

This is my new head canon.

Kolanaki@yiffit.net · 4 pts · 1y

So you're saying you saw him vent?

Sus.

I miss Weyoun way more than I thought I would since my latest DS9 binge. Such a compelling character, portrayed outstandingly well

I love him and the poison.
