Scholarly in what respect? And how broad is your concern...classic up?

Inquiring minds.

Well, you those proles to go back to the galaxy where they belong.

Nothing to do with the episodes per se, Sister.

More the grander concepts behind the problems they run into and their technology. Like warp drive, which in real life physics is known as an Alcubierre drive, after the Mexican physicist who theorized it. Problem is, there's some sort of quantum effect that makes it rather impossible, and we could probably have warp-driven starships if this effect could be bypassed.

I guess so... What, a week or so?

Well, I should be getting ready. I'm going to walk into town to go to Barnes & Noble. Now that I've read Nineteen Eighty-four for the second time, it's time to get Brave New World.

BREAKING NEWS!!!

President Berlioz has admitted to making secret treatys with the Yuuzhan Vong. A race known to be untrustworthy and bent on destruction.

Stay tuned for more heinous updates.

Brave New world is definitely worth reading. Especially for a presidential candidate who needs some more jargon to go along with "newspeak"

It's called political dissent.

You know, back in my Zeta Neapoli days, we threw molten cheese on politicians we didn't like.

It is said that Nachos were invented in Zata Neapoli. It is also home to the 3rd best Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster, the effect of which is like having your brain smashed out by a large gold brick covered in a lemon peel.

I pay well to be informed.

Actually come to think of it I checked that book out at the library so...maybe I didn't pay at all.
