HAHA Tachyons!!

Love how in Voyager they got out of everything by "Emitting a reverse Tachyon Pulse".

Like how the Third Doctor's Deus Ex Machina was Reversing the polarity of the Neutron Flow.

DNA was always the buzzword in Voyager... people transformed almost instantly from human to alien and back again by having alien strands embedded into their DNA... Everything was DNA this DNA that... I don't think they really understood what DNA is or what it really does!

If the DNA in your body changed you wouldn't instantly become a new creature!

And different species from different planets can always mate and produce healthy offspring... despite the fact that on earth- closely related species often can't accomplish that.


Human mating with Klingon (supposedly crustaceans)... that's fine and produces viable offspring. Human and Vulcan... viable offspring.





Then there is Torchwood. Start Trek explains being able to talk to aliens because of a universal translator. Doctor Who- the Tardis translates everything automatically.

Torchwood?


Nope- aliens just all speak English!

Finally someone who understands DNA! <ok>

Oddly enough, the most scientifically accurate DNA change I have seen on screen is the 1986 movie "The Fly" with Jeff Goldblum.

In that the transformation happens slowly as DNA replication takes place and his appearance is then changed as dictated by the new "spliced" Chromosomes in his DNA strands. They even go so accurate as to display the first mutation appearing on that wound on his back, which it would, because DNA "renewal" as such, would happen quicker in the wound as the body tries to heal itself.
