Now that Lower Decks is over and I will never see Tendies big green tits again... I'm just not okay bros

I love crack

Seasons 1 and 2 of TNG are superior to 7.

I like all three, damn the haters.

Wherever I am, I must also ghostrape

2 maybe but the pegasus alone makes s7 better than 1

threadly reminder sisko raped mirror universe Dax

in the mirrorverse its not rape, its consensual.

We’re all biobots anon. They don’t think it be like it do, but she was

angry single father black man rapes trans woman

i can already see the headlines

He probably stole her bicycle too.

according to current day if you fuck someone under false pretenses say not being the person you are pretending to be its rape

I unironically love season 1 because of how weird and cheesy and "dated" it is. I love the many 80s-isms, how it's basically just a slightly updated TOS, how Roddenberry's autistic vision was front-and-centre, how there was absolutely no war or relationship drama, how unapolegetically utopian and chill the world was, etc. The whole season has this very relaxed vibe to it. I also like how Picard was kind of a cold prick to everyone, it felt more realistic to how the captain of a navy flagship would be and it made him a very unique character.
The Pegasus is amazing but it's only one great episode out of an entire season of mediocrity.

I also liked S1 Worf a lot more personally before he went a bit feral.

They normified it starting in season 3 and it went to shit as a consequence. Normies will object to this obvious truth.

Since TOS shows you could split someone into their good and evil halves via the transporter, would that work with a positronic life form? How would that even work?
Don't read this part below at all.

As shitty as PIC was, the resolution between Lore and Data was oddly satisfying because it's the kind of non-violent resolution Gene would have approved of. Show love (inb4 cats can't love) to spark love. The rest of the show was not good.

the dinosaur comics guy does an IDW imprint of it. now fuck off to and we shall never speak of this again

all good things

emergence (good episode despite it kind of petering out into nothing)

lower decks

paralells

attached (it's fine, fine...)

phantasms

Liaisons (it's fun ok)

I'll admit there are a lot more misses than I thought though...

at least s3 tried to be trek, it didn't always succeed but at least it tried

No joke, season 7 is just a mishmash of audition tapes since they were all trying their hardest to be serious actors and not be typecast after the show/movies/conventions ended (lol!). Also the writing in the first couple seasons is top-tier.

I agree those are good episodes. But I think it's the general "vibe" for lack of a better word. In season 7 everything just feels so "going through the motions", like everyone is just sick and tired of doing the same shit for years and isn't putting in much energy anymore. Not much feels truly new or exciting or fun. Pretty much the entire cast and crew confirm this was the case, that they were all tired and out of ideas by this point, which is the main reason why season 8 didn't happen despite financially it being viable.
For me Trek is mostly about the "feels", like the general comfiness and charm of everything. TOS had that in spades, of course, and early TNG as well. But as it went on later into the 90s it all became a bit dull and workmanlike, basically what Voyager was like 100% of the time.

S1

Datalore
Heart of Glory
Skin of Evil
Conspiracy
The Neutral Zone

S2

Elementary, Dear Data
The Measure of a Man
The Royale
Time Squared
The Icarus Factor
Q Who

S7

The Pegasus
Lower Decks
Preemptive Strike
All Good Things...

In terms of best episodes yes but I would argue that the bad episodes of s7 are better than s1 and s2.

Okay good luck with that

dull and workmanlike, basically what Voyager was like 100% of the time.

That's complete bullshit. Voyager is the least like that. It's Berman Trek pushed to the absolute limit and it's beautiful. The cast was firing on all cylinders. Murder yourself.

they are schizophrenic morons the only character worth anything is Doc

at least Matalas tried. I dont know what Olatunde Osunsanmi thought he was doing, but it wasn't trying. Bryan Fuller would have done decently with Picard, but then Raffi would have some first name like Samuel because his fetish is chicks with dude names.

Dead fags can't post.

Fuller isn't right in the head but he does make good television sure he would've been acceptable, and raffi should've been cut entirely

A really beautiful message from Bill

Was that the reconstruction of Kim that showed he had no dick?

My hot take is Raffi is necessary for the same reason why the Culture novels all involve Special Circumstances. You can't have too much of a utopian cast. You also can't have a weirdo trailer trash drug addict living at Vasquez rocks. Raffi should have, and under Fuller may well have, been Chakotay done right; a former officer whose loyalties were torn and she ended up living on Planet Vasquez Rocks becoming more jaded as she saw the futility of having to choose between eternal realpolitik of unafilliated territory, or the hugbox-assimiliation of the Federation. She could have had a redemption arc that was actually one of finding her place in a complex universe and not playing her character from SVU except more scowling and more lesbian

Chakotay done right

well said, unfortunately she was not

the music alone makes tng season 1 better than everything that comes after it.
well, almost everything

the entire series should have been cut when it wasnt picard getting the gang back together to steal B4 and resurrect Data.

how sad is it that Robert Beltran, who couldn't be arsed to act Chakotay when he was doing Voyager, did a better Punished Chakotay in the kid's show than Michele Hurd did in the gritty grownup show?

oh I agree, but luckly enough we got s3 and thats really all that matters the rest of that trash can be forgotten

season 3 was also trash because they did it completely wrong and romulus is still exploded

The early season TV remote phasers were aesthetic as fuck

had to work with what was available it did the best to could with the trash heap it had to work with

no they did a lot right, but the amount of total shit that had to be accommodated for accounts for the shit.

I'm considering rewatching ds9 immediately because I've already forgotten things from the early seasons like Quark's Cardassian girlfriend

goes back in time just to see her mom become a military whore for the spoonheads and dukat's personal fucktoy

Most elaborate "yo mama" joke ever told

the more I ruminate on that the episode the more upsetting it is. literally nothing about it makes sense and I have to think the showrunners wanted to punish Kira's actor or something for some reason

i found s3 unwatchable because it was still ironic quipping retards on sets with all the lights turned off

Give grandma a kiss

acts nothing like herself

this was my other issue
everyone is going OMG SO GOOD and I'm just like... no, no it's not

i just remembered beverly hated being a brunette and swore she would never do it again
