Default Emperor of Cantha and Q

Well, I saw this pic of the Emperor of Cantha, and all I could think was that it looked really familiar to Q in Star Trek. (Yes I should brand the word geek across my forehead).

Sweet!

How much you wanna bet he is fascinated with us lowly Humans (Ascalonians)? And maybe he discovered the Shadow Art of teleportation. There has to be some strong similarities between Emperors and Omnipotent beings....

C'mon now... Q is who introduced us to the Borg! The episode appropriately named Q Who? (just funny because of the question.) Anyways, that's the last you'll hear from me on the subject. I won't dig my hole any deeper

I only watched during one summer and they had already met the borg. After that school started and I haven't seen it since.

I saw some of next generation and I don't remember him. But I only watched the show for 4-5 months or so.

Some of the shows he was in: (warning-nerd alert)

Encounter at Farpoint (the first episode)
Q who (Borg'd)
True Q (season 6)
Tapestry (season 6)
All Good Things (season 7)

there's two or three more whose names escape me. In one episode, he gives Riker the powers of the Q, and in another, he becomes human for an episode. Safe to say, every time I see him I plan for a witty discourse between him and one officer or another.

Oh, there was that godawful one where he brought the crew into a Robin-hood esque fantasy, but I do my best to push that stinker out of my mind.

BTW, G4TV just got the syndication rights, so there's plenty of TNG to go around. I think Spike shows it during the day as well. Q Who? was on just a few days ago. I haven't been watching much because they've been showing the Dr. Pulaski episodes. Ugh!
