Captain Proton

I firmly believe that it's one of the biggest crimes in television that Captain Proton never got its own spin-off. The other being The Scary Door in Futurama (yes, I know it's a parody of The Twilight Zone, but it could've been marvellous).

I don't even think it would've necessarily mattered if it didn't have Robert Duncan McNeil as Captain Proton. That was Paris playing a holodeck story, so that could be explained by having the actual actor who does it being "replaced" by Paris in Voyager.

However, it would CATEGORICALLY need Martin Rayner and Nicholas Worth as Chaotica and Lonzak. Rayner absolutely killed it as the fiendish Chaotica, and the whole thing was done and scored so well, that it came together beautifully. It would even be in Black & White, with cheesy low budget effects.

My therapist told me to stop comparing myself to others. Then I went to the grocery store.

Rewatching Past Tense, yet again. Amusing to think something set so far in the future is now over a year in the past.

Anyway, the police storming the centre at the end, and Webb's death, still irritates me. There was absolutely no rhyme nor reason for it. Webb was a good guy. He wasn't a DIM, or a Ghost. Sure he was annoyed, but if he'd just have stayed down he would've been ok.

Did I miss something or was there a cut scene or something which explained why he made such a stupid decision and got himself killed?
