What or who is Risa?

I don't know what this image is referencing, but Risa is a "pleasure planet" from Star Trek. c/Risa is a Star Trek-themed shit posting community.

This is a screen grab from the Night Court reboot. The character on the left is Dan Fielding played by John Laroquette, reprising his role from the original series. Laroquette also played a Klingon in Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. The episode in question has something to do with Comic-con (I haven't watched it so I don't know the specifics) and they've dressed Laroquette as a Klingon to reference his earlier Star Trek appearance.

That's pretty cool! Thank you.

Is the new "Night Court" any good? I really enjoyed the show as a kid, but haven't taken the time to check out the reboot.

[-] SurfinBird@lemmy.ca 2 points 8 months ago

It is well worth watching. They have some cast changes allng the way. Brent Spiner came back for an episode too.

I watched maybe three episodes of the first season. It's fine, but I feel no urge to watch any more. I feel like the new cast doesn't have anywhere near the charisma that the old one did, but maybe that's just me getting old.

Ah, that's too bad.

[-] Splatterphace@lemm.ee 3 points 8 months ago

Thank you 🙂

Don't you just love weird nerd drama on niche sites?

[-] Corgana@startrek.website 4 points 8 months ago

Future historians will endlessly debate our decision not to kill Risa when we had the chance.

Good thing Risa's still around. The other one bans people for having a mental disorder
