Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

MODERATORS
some people dont consider std canon. or kurtzman trek-verse for that matter. they need dedicated trek showrunner, not someone that hates it or is ignorant of trek. enterprise ended because of LES MOONVES hating the series.
I fear that day.
I'm still waiting for Voyager, Enterprise, and Disco to get good.
VOY gels by season 3, ENT is scatterbrained (3 overall not great, but 4 has enough solid episodes), DISCO is a hot mess with moments that shine through.
Stargate.
Next step:
Wait... Are we only allowed to do it twice?
They just said "again"
Babylon 5?
Babylon 5 is DS9 in the right universe, with muppets!
Ivonova and Sinclair never attacked a populated planet. Technically Sheridan did, but I don't think Za'hadum actually counts as inhabited....
Farscape!
Soooo.... SG°1? Or is that too far?
Came here to say this.
the orville. written by and stars some of the pre-2010s talent
Season 4 let's gooooo! 🥹
i know im so excited!!
Had an argument with my dad about The Orville. He said it was too 'woke' and political. I told him that's exactly what makes it feel like good classic Trek.
Has your dad watched classic trek recently? Its mostly woke.
That's what I don't get. It's like the people saying Sesame Street has gotten too woke. Were you even paying attention the first time? That's what I liked about many episodes of The Orville: it felt like classic Star Trek because it was pushing the envelope of social and philosophical issues through a sci-fi lens.
He asked me if he would like SNW and I wasn't sure what to tell him. The cast may be more diverse, but honestly the plots have largely been focused on action.
You have to watch Star Trek Continues, it picks up immediately where ToS left off.
Yes, it's a fan show, but it's got absolutely fantastic sets, sound, acting and writing, it goes above and beyond.
It's really top notch, and I was so sad when they stopped making it!

Stargate?
I am the great and powerful Oz!
You give us your ranking from best to worst show, in your personal opinion. Then we all get to argue about it and have fun.
Not op, but this is definitive, so we can get into an argument when your list is slightly different
Ds9
LD
TOS
TNG
VOY
SNW
ENT
TAS
Prodigy
Discovery/Picard
I agree on DS9... From there I would go:
TNG
LD
VOY
SNW
ENT
TOS
PRO
TAS (Even thoug I've never seen it)
DIS/PIC
TOS below ENT is unfathomable. I’ll have a go:
DS9, TOS, TNG, DISCO, SNW, VOY, LD, PIC, PRO, TAS, ENT
SNW would have beat out DISCO if it weren’t for season 3. Of course, I’m super mercurial and will stand by none of this in a week.
Not actually that far away from my list. I understand putting TNG that high even if I disagree with it. TOS being that low is pure blasphemy, though
Putting TOS as 3rd is just wrong, have you even watched it recently? Absolute terrible opinions good sir, especially having the greatest musical of all time so low on the list.
I watch TOS relatively frequently, watched a few episodes the other day. It’s a really fantastic show, more great episodes in the first season than some other shows have their entire run. The Spock/Kirk/McCoy dynamic is as special as it has ever been. Pacing is slower, which I like, and even a lot of the mediocre eps do a really nice job setting up a mystery that they actually solve.
There’s also a lot of truly awful eps, and highly outdated bits, but a great show.
Also, much like Janeway I don’t appreciate being called sir, ma’am will do in a pinch. (I know Star Trek was trying to be progressive by using sir universally, but I find it mildly sexist)
And I agree, it hurt to put Voyager as low as it was, the doctor’s rendition and alteration of la Donna e mobile was as brilliant as you state, but still had to put TNG higher, so many great episodes.
I'll make a post of it after some thought. Gotta tease the crowd before stirring them up into a fervor.
If you're into podcasts, I highly recommend Improvised Star Trek.
Watch them all again and listen to the best Trek podcast around
"And ummthatguy wept, for there were no more Treks to watch."
Continues is amazingly good.
More than it has any right to be
This and The Orville.
then you watch all of star wars
will that get me crucified in this community?😂
when I realize I have no new treks to watch
Easy, get amnesia then watch Star Trek again for the first time!
