You`ve missed your vocation CK, you should have been a scriptwriter. Astute observation as well, I didn`t pick up on the uniforms at the time. This is your area of expertise no doubt and thanks for the info on "Babylon 5". It`s not a series that I have followed but I would do so if just to see Billy Mumy in an adult role as he was so good when he was young. Wil Wheaton was very good in Star Trek TNG and has gone on to do many other good things in later life which is good to see. I would also nominate Joseph Mazzello as another kid that was a candidate for a good spanking but I`m not sure if he appeared in anything on TV apart from " The Pacific" series recently. There was a scene in "Jurassic Park" where Tim was pestering the life out of Dr Grant and my imagination being what it is I visualised an impromptu spanking being carried out with the little boy`s arms and legs flailing like a windmill in overdrive. But I digress here because that is film and not TV and I mustn`t go off-topic and risk incurring the wrath of the discipline minded Librarians. I may be a bit daft but I`m not totally stupid !
Thank you--but selling the scripts would be another issue, wouldn't it?
"Really, we can't have a spanking in every weekly episode of the show, it's not a program about kinky sexuality or domestic discipline...Can't you write a script without including a bare-bottom blistering that takes up ten minutes of our air time?"
Of course, Dr. Grant was being paid a great amount of money as a consultant by John Hammond, so giving his employer's grandson even a few buttsmacks merely for being overly enthusiatic about dinosaurs might not be a good career move. (The movie reverses the ages of the children BTW, in the novel Tim was the older grandchild--and Hammond wasn't as nice a person either.)
In the original "Battlestar Galactica" series (1978-79), I could've envisioned the rougish Lieuenant Starbuck (he was a male in the first BSG series) being spanked by either his old girlfriend (Athena) or the new one he ended up effectively dumping her for (Cassiopiea), or possibly both of them together--with a leather strap or a Spencer paddle, or again maybe both, on his naked buttcheeks. Of course, it would've also been interesting to have seen the two rivals for Starbuck's romantic attention in a confrontation which resulted with one of them walloping the other, or even them taking turns whacking each other's bare derriere with a lexan paddle; that might be before they conspired to trap their boyfriend so they could discipline him together showing belated womanly solidarity.
Captain Apollo was probably too indulgent as Boxey's stepfather to discipline him effectively, especially with the boy's mother (Serena) recently deceased, but later on Apollo's new girlfriend Sheba might have done so, possibly with her hairbrush whacking Boxey's bare behind OTK when he got into playful mischief.
This actually belongs in the "Shameless Plug" thread, but I'll mention here that I did write two stories about TNG's Wesley Crusher being spanked, "Ensign Upended" (short and straightforward) and "Stellar Shock" (projecting his future life as a Traveler)... --C.K.
