We all grabbed a cup of Earl Grey tea and settled in to go where no trivia host has gone before --

Star Trek: The Next Generation trivia!

We had so much fun joking about the rouge borg being ultra-fabulous (when it shoulda been the rogue borg, eh!) and Round One was a breeze for all of our teams as we saw multiple successful double downs.

Round Two was where it started getting trickier, but our Dim Bulbs led each crew in a chorus of answers.

Round Three was enjoyable for all, spelling out FERENGI -- and as Dim Bulbs ran ahead with a 40-point lead, they were indeed the ones to catch.

Just as we suspected, Round Four was a blast with naming the different species and Trill proved to be the trippiest!

But don't worry -- no one was inferior at all. We realized Round Four went full-circle showing the Bolian who were responsible for Picard's artificial heart transplant from Round One.

We also brainstormed some amazing names for teams for the next Star Trek game!

Including Keeping up with the Cardassians and How to Get a Nausicaan Under the Mistletoe as well as Q-Anon.

But of course we loved everyone's incredibly names tonight -- and were happy to see Quark the cat make a guest appearance!

We were happy to see smiles all around and could tell no one wanted the night to end.

Live long and prosper, trivia crews!
