Do you chums have a fantasy crew list?

or do you just imagine them whilst achieving ultra-super-cilmax from bashing during pon farr?

My first thought was, “what, like captain Galadriel? Chief engineer Gandalf, doctor Arwen and nurse Gimli?”
I’d watch that.
- Fool of a Tuvix!
- Kimli: I have taken my worst wound at this duty assignment… having looked my last upon that which is fairest. Henceforth I will call nothing fair unless it be her promoting me.
  Parisolas: What was her gift?
  Kimli: I asked her for one pip from her golden collar. She gave me none.
- Nurse Femli could maybe try 'n fix me.
  Please mess with the knobby bits of the transporter next time, chief engineer Nightwatch Admin. We'll fudge up the stardates and logs so Admiral "Whatever-Today-Is" doesn't fire us.

  “E’s ded cap’in”
  “Quick, you grab his wallet while I take his tricorder”
- Aww. You really did something to me with this one.

Just off the top of my head.
- Great list. I think you and I might be the only people that actually liked Dark Matter, everyone else seems to write it off as wannabe Firefly and that's... not inaccurate, but I still enjoyed it, haha.
  
  It's been so long between the last time I saw Firefly or Serenity and when I started watching Dark Matter (only a few months ago), the comparison didn't even occur to me.
  There is some overlap, but IMHO not much more than any other "rag tag group of fugitives on a powerful ship" sci fi. Speaking of which, only after I posted did I think "oh, I forgot to find a role for Avon from Blake's 7."
  
  Dark Matter was fun, so was Killjoys. I watched both when they were airing.
  That's the thing, looking back...it's easy to compare those types of shows against everything better that came before. However, at the time; it was just new material. I go into these situations with low expectations so as not to be disappointed.
  They can't all be zingers, right?
  Edit: after re-reading this in a more enlightened state (1 day older & a bit less intoxicated), I've come to a better conclusion... We generally look back and only remember the best & worst things. Mediocre or "it was okay" get forgotten.
  The shoulders or taint of the giants on which we stand get left behind.
- This is a fantastic list!
  I'm getting a request from a "HAL 9000" to join the AI Rights council. Should we open frequencies?
  
  Open frequencies? I'd be happy if he'd just open the pod bay doors!
Is Tuvix managing other positions single-handed, or are there many Tuvices?
- They exist in a state of quantum entanglement.
  It would be paradoxical to quantify them directly; resulting in a Tribble situation.
Party Compilator. Is that a landing party compilator or a birthday party compilator? Either answer is acceptable.
- It's not easy keeping track of all the different birthdays when you have to take into account so many different variables.
It's not entirely Star Trek, but The Babysitter had a similar question.
- That was pretty good, thanks. Might have to give the full thing a watch. I didn't even consider recruiting outside of Starfleet. I could get Andrew Bird as the ship's computer (but he just whistles everything). Hair Seldon as counselor. Master/Blaster or maybe Dracula for security detail.
