Lmao, I've never watched any Trek series from start to finish and I thought I would start with Voyager.

You’re right, they are in Lower Decks. I guess I didn’t count it because I feel like it at least tries to be like old Trek in a way. Doesn’t really work of course, but there’s some effort there.
I will defend Lower Decks to a certain point. I caught a few episodes while my roommate was watching it and it surprised me. There was one episode that stood out, the main black girl’s mom was on trial for something she didn’t do, so she went rogue to try to clear her mom’s name. The whole episode was this adventure where they try to uncover the conspiracy behind the framing of her mother, and the whole while I was rolling my eyes because of course in modern Star Trek there are conspiracies and bullshit like this running rampant in starfleet, but then at the end of the episode the main characters return from their adventure, ready to exonerate the main character’s mom, and they find that Starfleet alreasy figured all of that out, because they’re competent and know to trust their senior officers. In fact, the whole adventure only serves to land the main characters in a heap of trouble because they directly violated their orders. I just remembered feeling surprise at that, because it was what actually should have happened there.

Fuck right off, faggots. Woketards don't get to quote the speech from The Drumhead.

I'm two minutes in and this episode is already full of shit.

STOP WITH THE OUTDATED COLLOQUAILISMS. You sound like a 40 year old wine aunt trying to be hip and cool.

Ben Shapiro lives on in the 32nd century.

Oh great, it's a refugee episode. Klingons are the Muslim rapefugees of the 32nd century. The Klingon cadet had two dads and one mom.

Great restraint, writers. You held that line back for twenty minutes.

I wouldn't want every Captain to be like this.

If I was in charge of the next trek, Id actually want a captain that's a bit experienced (knows fully what his ship and crew are capable of) but also out of comfort zone. Get somebody who's mostly used to doing milk runs scanning anomalies or carrying diplomats and throw them into situations they have to think quickly on. I want a sort of awkward confidence contrasted with difficulty in speaking ideas to other people.


It would be difficult in current year, but I think that would be interesting if actually pulled off

I've been trying to to figure out if the og cast got along in real life. I know Shatner drove everyone nuts. I know Nimoy and he butted heads (ego problems?).
The way I understand it, everybody liked Kelly. He was straight up the peacemaker and the dude that relieved a lot of tension. It was to the point that Nimoy and Shatner once teamed up to secretly give him a raise for the movies.

Sulu and Walter got along pretty well. Im pretty sure all of the other cast were cool with each other, it's just shatners ignorant ego overshadowed everybody in the series. I do think aside from Sulu and sadly Nimoy towards the end, ( I remember his son comforted Shatner once by saying he didn't want him to see him in his last days suffering) Shatner did a pretty decent job patching things up with everyone else. He seemed genuinely ignorant and regretful in his biography.


TNG was just magical man. Its kinda wild how everyone just clicked after season 1 (they had to break Stewart in, but eventually he rolled with it)

I'm just kinda numb to it to be honest. Like yeah it's dead but I don't know... It's like finding out every year someone unearths grandma and drags her behind a car.

The first time it's horrific... The nineth or tenth time it's more like " it's just bones dude.."

Why didn't you mention the 15 minute monologue by Morn's descendant about the idiocy of offering asylum to a backwards, violent race such as the Klingons? I was shocked they allowed such a far-right diatribe on a modern TV show.

This is patently false as well, can you imagine Klingon lobby banter?

“How dare you use that equipment? It lacks all honor! No, I don’t care if you use a grenade launcher in the next round, it will not stop me, for my victory shall echo in the halls of Sto-vo-kor! And when you are lying broken at my feet, I shall claim my rightful prize, and take your mother to my bed! Qapla’!”

"Only pa'taqs use riot shields! You bring shame to your house!" And this is the game he was referencing:

Worf knew how to keep it simple.

Just imagine the kids from the TNG era using 80s/90s slang.

"I'm going to be executed for stepping in some flowers? This is bogus."

"It's positively tubular that you got promoted to captain, Dad."

What do you think Shapiro will say about this?

I need to watch an episode with better comedic timing, like "Four-and-a-Half Vulcans".
>Jayden's dad let his brother die rather than use a Federation dermal regenerator
Isn't that only used for minor injuries like cuts and burns? Did the brother die from a fucking papercut?

On the one hand, you could argue that the Klingons have less resources to develop new ships.

On the other hand, I'm pretty sure it's because the crew thought the only ships the Klingons had were Birds of Prey.

Morn XLVII is easily the best Star Trek character we've gotten in years.

That's honestly a pretty funny idea, a warrior race quenching its thirst for battle through video games.

Now that I think about it, do the Klingons use holodecks?
 
I've been trying to to figure out if the og cast got along in real life. I know Shatner drove everyone nuts. I know Nimoy and he butted heads (ego problems?).
It does seem like, years later, Shatner and Nimoy arrived at a frosty truce. Shatner very clearly saw Nimoy as a threat. Nimoy was also the only one without enough juice to push back or rewrite his role.

And Shatner absolutely stepped on his co-stars’ lines. It’s about screen time, which is about fucking with their money. That’s not something you “get over.” From Shatner’s perspective, this all registers as petty whining. (Noonan and Takei didn’t die in a gutter.)

The fact that Nu Trek has managed to desecrate every past captain and they’re even talking about dragging Bakula out of retirement (Bakula! People didn’t give a shit when his show was on!!) and yet audiences still don't care about Star Trek is pretty damning.

Yeah, it's dead. It’s been dead for some time. This is the Meet the Spartans stage of the grift, the studio can’t even pretend it’s profitable.

Shatner would throw a shit fit whenever anyone got more lines than he did and he wasn't the center of attention.

VOY needs lubrication to go down smooth. You sedate yourself and then VOY happens to you.


I like that it’s not boring though. The acting usually sucks, the writing is not good, and every episode has some weird lesson that’s accidentally insulting to someone. But it’s entertaining.
 
Just rewatched Forbidden Planet and it's crazy that Roddenberry just remixed this movie with his breeding fetish to form 99% of the Cage
