One of them should have been Wesley.

Wesley is like half a Q. He can save himself.
I’d feel bad about choosing between any of who’s up there, but I don’t think anyone would miss Wesley
I liked him. They could’ve made the “boy genius” storyline a bit better, but then the “genius” part overlaps with Data too much I guess. Also, he shouldn’t have had issues getting into the academy at all
He’d have been so cool as like a prodigy type, that’s where I thought they were going with him making cool gadgets and understanding traveller. I really wish they’d just gone through with it, since the best and brightest are supposed to be the very fabric of starfleet no overlap should be a problem.
Well, you generally don’t want your characters to be redundant though. A boy genius finding it hard to integrate with the crew (which was where it was heading, with the famous “shut up Wesley” being an example, or that Picard didn’t want children on the bridge) is quite close to wondorous machine that doesn’t fully understand what it means to be human finds it hard to integrate with the crew etc
I was 10 years old when TNG started, so Wesley was perfect for me. “A kid can be on the bridge of the Enterprise? A kid like me?”
Also, Wil Wheaton is awesome. And a good actor.
I like Wil but his actor skills are gone. His appearance in Picard was cringingly bad. Although I partly blame the director for allowing such a bad performance to go to print.
I really liked him in Eureka. I don’t think his acting skills have gone all that far downhill since then. And I’m not sure what sort of performance you expected from a superbeing Wesley.
Eureka was 18 years ago!
I expected something like Wesley from the TNG episode, Journey’s End where he was fantastic. Instead it was like if you put Adam Savage on set and told him to geek out about being on Trek.
Shut up Weasley the squid
God dammit now I’m a mind flayer too.

Can I save two if I kill Burnham twice?
two dogs? :D

Jadzia can save her own self though because she’s a badass. Porthos is a helpless lil doggo.
Porthos made it to the end of his series, meanwhile Jadzia…

Technically, since the last episode takes place on the holodeck centuries after the events of ENT no one in made it to the end of the series.
Sad point, well put.
someone should have told Worf this
All other 5 of them can save themselves just fine.
Uhura can save herself with a sexy fan dance!
The dog is the only one that can’t actually consent to space travel, and regardless, couldn’t possibly know the risks. It is innocent, and doesn’t deserve a violent fate.
Everyone else knows that they signed up to live in a metal box, with an artificial biosphere, which is all that separates them from the cold void of deep space. Also, said deep space is jam-packed full of things trying to actively break that metal box, if the crew doesn’t beat them to it first. And nobody knows that better than Seven.
Seven didn’t. At least not originally. Annika was dragged along by her parents out into the middle of nowhere to get assimilated.
Yes, she decided as an adult to continue her career in space, but she definitely didn’t make that original choice.
We all live in outer space, out in the middle of nowhere. Everyone ever has, and will. And not a single one of us got a warning of the risks before they roped us all into this. Kinda messed up when you think about it.
Yeah, but no one gets to choose where they live as a kid. Her parents took her to a particularly dangerous place, but plenty of parents go someplace dangerous with their kids on purpose. It’s basically abusive behavior, but it’s also not like they ever lauded Annika’s parents as heroes. They were pretty neutral on what happened.
It would be Dex, but the old fart is gonna make it anyway. So I’ll save 1/6th of everyone and let an annoyed hologram fix the rest in sick bay.
Just remember that you can’t save Porthos and the cheese.
We know cheese makes Porthos sick, but we never found out where Porthos goes when he needs to do his business. Is there a turf deck on the NX-01?
Ask Reed. He’s the one that has to walk him.
Oof no one tell op what happened to Porthos.
He got six kinds of cheese. I’ve seen Enterprise. You can’t fool me.
Also, that was a different Porthos in Star Trek that doesn’t count and it couldn’t have been the same dog anyway unless they invented super long-life dog extension medicine or something.
So what happened to Porthos is he got six kinds of cheese. The end.
… In about seventy five years when he rematerializes…
Seven or jadzia is an impossible choice for me

Can I save all BUT one? Because then I’d choose Michael Burnham NOT to save. I actually liked her character in season 1, and even in most of season 2, but once they jumped to the future, she’s just become insufferable. I hate the term “Mary Sue,” as it is typically used incorrectly (and typically for misogynistic reasons), but Burnham has very much turned a Mary Sue.
Jadzia-Dax. I’ve just saved two lives.
Sure, that’s what Janeway said when she killed Tuvix.
Why is it only women in the comparison with a dog?
Because men aren’t worth saving probably

My hormones would choose Seven. God damn that thing she wears always drove me crazy
I’d save seven and together would would figure out a way of using time travel to save the other 4
You mean 5? Or you just not saving one?
😉
Oh gee. Wait until they find out there were nine 🤣
