/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Lol how would you make that work? Have him voice the squeaks??
Klingon.
Andorian Thy'lek Shrank Reynolds:
Dude, we never see ambiguously "dumb" characters on Star Trek, well excepting Lieutenant Broccoli, so having an odd-ball character who's really good at one thing, but completely fucked everything else up!? Boom, DeVito
Q
All of them. Let's make Danny DeVito the next Jeffrey Combs.
Imagine an episode in which DeVito portrays dozens of different guest characters, one from each species that has been featured in the series. Then, the rest of the Sunny gang portrays a merry band of outlaws or something.
My 'shop skills are terrible, so just use your imagination:
Dennis (as Worf): I am not a merry man.
"It's Always Sunny in the Holodeck" is a crossover I didn't know I needed until this very second. Bravo. Now I'm picturing Lore going off about being a golden god.

Vulcan
Horny Betazoid with a crass personality like on always sunny.
So Lwaxana Troi, but half-in-the-bag
Yes, maybe he could play her grand/father on SNW, give her some more background on why she's like that.
I would like to see him as either tellarite counselor (the books have one working on Titan with Captain Riker) specialized in trauma.
Or as a Ferengi running a call center for a non profit for 24th century version of climate pollution.
I think his performance as Frank on It's Always Sunny shows he would be a pretty great Ferenghi.
I vote Ferengi
My vote goes for a generally tall and slender species.
I think he'd play the hell out of a Kelpien for example. Say, Saru's long lost brother they don't talk about, at all?

I want to see him as all the characters in a single episode.
Shouldn't he get his own alien type: DeVitian or something?
Vulcan
I want to see him as a recurring background character of every race!
Also, Jeffrey Combs frequently shows up with DeVito.
This should be an ongoing bit throughout multiple series/movies.
Hah as thinking about options I thought DeVito should show up as whoever Combs is playing, the assistant.
Growing up in the 80s I always liked DeVito overall, from romancing the Stone to Twins, those were just my first recalls of him, assume that gives you an idea of my generation.
I'll say I haven't watched much of it's always sunny in Philadelphia but it endeared me to learn he enjoyed the comedy so much so they did what it took to accomodate him in the series. Which from what I understand was filming all his scenes for a season when he was there over like a few days.
Unless I read incorrectly of course but seem to recall that being a thing at the start at least.
I want Jeffrey Combs to guest star in the same episode, portraying Danny DeVito. It is revealed he had been cryogenically frozen before death and only now was revived (similar to the ancient humans who were thawed/healed in TNG S1E26 "The Neutral Zone")
I'd watch it.
Gonna go with a Harry Mudd - Vulcan mashup.
He would just be off-the-street Danny DeVito, and there would be no explanation to what his species is.

Talaxian.
Danny DeVito as the shortest Klingon.
"Someone's about to get stabbed!" And he pulls out a mini Mek'leth.
He pulls a Klingon disruptor at the slightest inconvenience
And then i started disrupter-ing
