50 mistakes you might have missed in the best TV shows of all time
The Star Trek entry is ridiculous... In the science fiction realm, writers are often forced to find a balance between the fantastical and the realistic, melding real science with wild concepts to make the worlds created as believable as possible. In the instance of "Next Generation," however, one of the main data points was the ship's computer having an odd need to breathe in the middle of sentences. Considering it was supposed to be all function and not a human form, a breathing computer seemed a little too far-fetched for fans. People actually lose sleep about this? They do realize that in the '80s automated voices were horrifically primitive and grating, right? Did they expect Majel Barrett to record one sentence at a time so the staff could splice them together without breathing noises?
