SciFi freak trivia
 

Same rules as music trivia:
24 hours to answer or it is a stumper and poster gets to ask another
Correct poster gets to ask next question
No googling for answer please (takes fun away)

Finally the only rule new for this thread: All shows must be from a SciFi show.... such as any of the Star Treks, Babylon 5, Twilight Zone, Outer Limits, FarScape, Freddy's Nightmares (the series no movie questions), Friday the 13th the Series, Monsters, tales from the Darkside, etc.

Ok here goes a very easy question.......... what literary character did Data like to play in the Holodeck, in fact in one episode the computer generated arch rival actually tried to take over the Enterprise?

Sherlock Holmes!!

I don't know much about Sci-Fi shows, so someone else will have to think of a question. :)

-Lasereth

Does Futurama count as a Sci-Fi show? Cause I know my Futurama. I suppose I probably know a lot more about Star Trek than I realize, too.

What's the name of Khan's ship. (i'm talking original Star Trek series)

top of my head - Episode was Space Seed and I want to say the Bounty for the DY-100 model ship. (the primary colours for the ship interior stick in my head but the name of the vessel is a wee bit fuzzy)
edit: I definitely remember the cute brunette that leaves with him at the end but dies conveniently before ST: II Wrath of Khan

Botany Bay was the name of Khan's first ship.

What was Khan's full name?

Kahn Noonian Singh...

What is the computer's name on Red Dwarf.

Holly.


In star trek next generation what is the name of Data's daughter?

Havn't seen that one

I would assume Futurama is ok but up to everyone else

Lal

What is the name of the Romulan Commander that accompanies Captain Picard into the Devron System in "All Good Things" (the last episode)?

^Commander Tomalak.


What planet was Kodos the Executioner governor of when he ordered half the population executed?

Tarsus IV

What's the name of the character in Space: Above and Beyond who dies whilst being sucked down a blackhole and listening to Johnny Cash?


(God, I miss that show. That needs a DVD box set)

"Easy as eating pancakes."

Raymond T. Butts, I believe.

I miss that show, too. I'm downloading episode 12, River of Stars, right now.

Alright, what was the name of the interrogator who interrogated/tortured Picard in the episode "Chain of Command"?

"How many lights do you see?"

I don't know if I am breaking protocols or not by answering another question but I am gonna any way because this is one of my favorite episodes of TNG (watched it again last night):

Gul Madred

----------------------------------

What are the first names of the three Lone Gunmen?



("Kind've a bummer getting your butt kicked by dead guy!")

In the same vein, maybe I shouldn't answer for the possibility of violating the same protocol. But, I figure I have to, since the Lone Gunman series was one of my favorite but short-lives series next to Firefly.

John Fitzgerald Byers (at least it wasn't Bertrand!)
Richard Langly, (I wanted to say Ringo, but I'm not sure if that's his "official" name)
Melvin Frohicke.

I will never forgive Chris Carter for knocking them off in one of the last X-Files episodes, though.

I have half the urge to have a two-part question, but I'll leave the second one as a purely optional pursuit.

One of my favorite ST:TNG episodes is "Yesterday's Enterprise". What was the name of the captain of the Enterprise-C, which was brought forward in time and created an alternate universe? Optionally, what pivotal battle (or location) did the Enterprise-C fight at that changed history?

Captian (Rachel) Garrett was the woman who was the captiain of the Enterprise - C. As I remember for the bonus points, they were protecting some klingon world from the romulans.

What earth drink did Worf love, that he was introduced to by Guinan?

Prune juice, I believe. He said it was a "Klingon warrior's drink" or something like that.

Anyhow, in the episode "Cause and Effect", the Enterprise enters a temporal causality loop caused by a collision and subsequent catastrophic explosion involving a ship commanded by a Captain Bateson (or as I'd like to say, Sideshow Bob). Other than everybody getting a massive case of deja vu, the loop keeps occuring, until Data tries a different way to avert the disaster.

So, the question is: Data gets a chance to take knowledge back in time to prevent the loop from continuing, but only one word. What was the word?

Three, to indicate the number of pips on Cmdr. Riker's collar so he would know to go with Riker's idea instead of his own.


Speaking of time loops, name three things that Col. O'Neal did just for fun while earth was trapped in a time loop during the Stargate SG-1 episode, "Window of Opportunity".

1. Pottery
2. Golf drives through the stargate
3. Kissing Capt. Carter (fun!)

In the episode "Parallels" of ST:TNG, Work keeps jumping from reality to reality every couple of minutes into the story. What thing casues him to shift between realities?

A quantum fissure in the space-time continuum.


What are the odds of successfully navigating an asteroid field?

(I know, I wanted to veer away from the rash of Star Trek questions, this is the SCIFI Freak Trivia Thread, not the Trekkie Freak Trivia Thread.)

<b>asteroid field is approximately 3,720 to 1</b>
I use this term all the time in traffic....



What was the name if Capt Sheridan's Earth Force ship?

The Agamemnon.

Of what species/race is Trance Gemini?

HAHA!!! Trick question, you sly and sneaky bastard. (I say that with the utmost respect). No one knows what race she is. Wow, I need to actually start living a life...

WHOOPSIE!! Forgot to add my question

What does Crichton call the Scorpy inside his head?

Damn!! Ya found me out. Yes, it was a trick question. ;)

Oh...and Harvey, isn't it? I'm not sure.

**BUMP**

*bump*

Bill O'Rights, I do believe it is your turn to post a question.

ok, here we go, easy one.

WHat is the Cardassian name for Deep Space 9?

Terak Nor (probably spelled wrong).

What's the name of Chiana's brother in Farscape?

Brothers name is - Nerri...




What were the names of the 'Twins' in <b>SilverHawks</b>

bonus points - name the all SilverHawks

Mojo looks like you have a stumper as it has been over 24 hours.

Keeping the thread going here's a new question........

Which one of these series had the 2 lead actors married to each other and name them....... Was it

FarScape?

Space 1999?

Friday the 13th the Series?

OR

Lexx?

Space 1999. Barbara Bain and Martin Landau were the leads. Divorced later.

My question:

On Deep Space 9, one continuing but never-speaking character is an alien named Morn who never seems to leave Quark's bar. The name "Morn" is significant because the writers intentionally made it an anagram of the fname of a well-known TV character on another long-running, non-sci-fi show.

What was that other character's name, and what was the name of the series he acted in? Extra points if you know the actor's name.

That would be Norm Peterson from the great show "Cheers", and the actors' real name is George Wendt. :)


My question:

From the series "Battlestar Galactica", which actress played Boxeys' mother?

[/B]Boxey's mom was none other than - Jane Seymour


Next Question:


What was the name of Ripley's ship in Alien?

The Nostromo!

What is the year on the gun given to Danny Glover at the end of Predator 2?

I know, not a great movie, but the upcoming AvP made the word association impossible to ignore.

bump

Ok we have a stumper.................. Kadath please ask another.

Sorry :(
Um...What's the prefix code for the Reliant, as mentioned in Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan?

If that one's too hard, someone else just ask one.

16309.


Which Klingon High Councilmember was suspected of being an agent of The Dominion?

Chancellor Gowron was suspected, but the agent was General Martok.

Which alien race was the Defiant originally built to fight against?
