Oh. the protagonist isn't that much of a Mary Sue. There are lots of pre-pubescent genius, 10th dan kung-fu astronauts with telepathic connections to their pet macaws out there.
Nah, The Living Dead and Star Trek don't mix well. Either 23rd century medicine will be able to come up with a cure before the end of the episode or you could at least use the Enterprise's phasers to scour the mall's parking lot and secure a safe beam out point for the survivors.
Of course the former point might be moot if McCoy gets bitten first.
"He's dead, Jim. No, wait a min-- argh, ahhhhh! Braaaains!"
Every single week you see House and his staff nearly kill the patient by treating the poor sap for Beri-beri, Yaws, Adult Onset Mumps, Reynards Syndrome, Yellow Fever, Brain Stem cancer, Bubonic Plague, Thrush, Nile River Eye Worm, Nile River Liver Worm, Nile River Lung Worm, Nile River Liver Tongue Worm, and Tetenus at pretty much the same time. They use outrageously expensive and deadly toxic treatments that will keep the patient in debt for the rest of their children's lives; then they finally cure their victim of the advanced Athletes Foot that was the problem all along, but they didn't think of it because it is presenting as an STD. This is what you want from your doctor????? Crazy, I say.
...now where did I put those salty braaaaaaaaains?

Are you people crazy???
