I've noticed it happening to one of my instances but not my other. I agree with your assessment though.

Thanks for sharing what you have. I didn't even know there were current Star Trek comic runs until I saw your posts.

This would've been a great surprise if they didn't reveal it so early

I'll do you one better: why is Reddit?

Which one though?

In that case, you could skip the first two seasons. Season 3 is really where it starts to get better. It's where the phrase "grow its beard" came from.

It's mostly episodic like the original series and 90s Trek but it has some season long story arcs. But it's modern in its style of telling. It's funny without resorting to being MCU quippy. And the science is closer to modern science fiction rather than TOS' parallel worlds pattern.

That said, it has a mix of action and moral dilemma and politics. There are "needs of the many" stories that don't have clear right or wrong, the psychological impact from the horrors of war stories, even a courtroom episode that rivaled the best ones from TOS and TNG. But there are also flashy fan servicey episodes that are just fun.

I suggest giving the first episode a go. It sets the mood for the rest of the first two seasons. Each episode brings something different, but I think the first episode really speaks to what the series is trying to be.

The absolute mess of a production 2022's Star Trek Day makes me both want to watch this and skip it. The only redeeming things were the hosts but it was obvious that they were even making things up on the spot.

And what's the premiere date if you do want to watch the trailer?

[–] r2vq@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I actually knew that. I was just trying to make a funny. But it failed.

I'm pretty sure 8ft is less than 2.4km
