But this kid underwent so much in the realm of time-travel shenanigans. And I'm not even talking about that 7th season episode that you'll get to eventually. Brian Bonsall's character on Family Ties was aged up, from a baby to a kindergartner, over the course of one summer hiatus. Then, after his appearances on TNG, Alexander was aged up again to appear as a surly teen on DS9... and the new actor was about 5 years older. Poor kid lost a whole decade somewhere! :-)Cygnushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10394890573443379954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8586403344533829376.post-77860279867149665862021-11-06T21:07:08.379-04:002021-11-06T21:07:08.379-04:00I remember this episode for personal reasons.

A rural constant, big 7th grader, decided to hector me. After a few weeks, I decided to do a Bobo Olson on him (yes, Bobo was my 1950s defensive hero). <br />Bully came at me all psychotic determination. Aimed his big fist at my face. I made as if to duck, but stopped --presenting my frontal skull just above anterior temple line, one of the best-protected areas of the body. Bones broke and bully ran off crying and holding his right hand to his chest. I laughed, and never noticed him again.My father was not Worf, but we watched Friday Night Fights together.Geo.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16221314320558128986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8586403344533829376.post-79544161056207964772021-11-06T20:53:50.044-04:002021-11-06T20:53:50.044-04:00I vaguely remember Worf's son.

This was a chance to expand his definition of being a Klingon, something Alexander’s own mother tried, and literally every other Klingon. The problem with the Alexander episodes was never Alexander. It was Worf.Tony Laplumehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07854455859399339169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8586403344533829376.post-80471200572152629832021-11-05T13:13:58.548-04:002021-11-05T13:13:58.548-04:00I don't remember enjoying Worf's son.I don't remember enjoying Worf's son.Andrew Leonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13964775673414653644noreply@blogger.com
