Great StarFleet Cook Off!

One of my own rules, is I generally will not post things unless its out on DVD since not everyone has the money for 50+ streaming services!

Say what you will about Strange New Worlds, but I feel Anson Mount does a better job as Pike than other actors. Maybe it's the hair or maybe its the environment he's in. That is secondary.

We've established Captain Pike is a cook, just as Captain Sisko is also a cook. From a bushido stand point it makes sense.

I've got to ask you my fellow fans. Pike and Sisko are in a cook off.

Who Wins?

Dude, I'm loving Strange New Worlds and I love Anson Mount as Pike. This group of writers just get it.

 

As for a cook off, Pike definitely knows how to cook some good looking things. Plus he is a bacon lover. That right there is enough to sway me. HOWEVER... Sisko be cooking some authentic creole food, To be honest I don't know who would win but I'd do some things to be a tasting judge. :D :D

@McFly

My father is someone who grew up with TOS.

99.9% of the time when I get Star Trek on DVD, he's meh.

He saw Strange New Worlds, and he said, "This is Star Trek! It moves!"

I think if anything Strange New Worlds proves that its not the writers who can't write on Trek, its other people in the line who like it being slow where you need to be spoon fed everything.

In Strange New World's we've seen Spock explore his human side more, you have to wonder if the smell of bacon temps him.

My money is on Sisko for one reason. His father is a restaurant grade chef, so he's bound to have passed on Ben some secrets on how to make good food, great food.;)

It's not just Pike that is a lover of Bacon, during his brief time as human. Spock was eating it hot off the plate. ;)

I finished season #2 on DVD.

The only episode I skipped was the singing episode.

After Picard which was darkness everywhere. It's nice to see an active ship where you can see people. :)

Honestly, you should give the musical episode a chance. I'm not really a musical fan either but damn if they didn't do a great job with it. :D

And I agree, they made Picard way too dark in more ways than one.

I say Sisko...he's definitely got that New Orleans Creole spice thing going on.  Say what you will, but people in the South know how to make good food.  :)

I'd have to give the edge to Captain Sisko, given his rich background in Creole cooking and family recipes from his father's restaurant. However, Pike's passion and skills could certainly make it a close and entertaining competition!
