Star Trek Franchise |OT| To Boldly Go.....
- Thread starter Deleted member 3812
- Start date
I wonder when Amazon Prime gets it. If it launching at 12.01am in US, Prime won't get it for at least 19 hours (with time difference) as it dated for the 24th, if it like Netflix with STD being added at 10am it'll effectly be 2 days later (29ish hours but another night and morning for Europeans).
Long time for spoilers to be seen.

think i'm going to go with this one
that does suck. Frustrating because releasing the episodes in the evening instead of in the middle of the night was one of the things I actually appreciated about CBS All acess.
Very nice updating. Loving the detail. Hoping that's not the only scene.hey, it's the
Enterprise 😭
here we go

When Star Trek: The Next Generation Was Bad, It Was Truly Horrendous
Regarding Up the Long Ladder:
I forget to include this one among the worst of Star trek but yeah it's BAD

This does kind of make Discovery's "The Sound of Thunder" not seem so bad in retrospect, not because it isn't terrible but because I guess Star Trek has always had the potential to be this bad in it.
Ok, am I imagining it, or was there an episode of Enterprise, where Captain Archer was doing a Q&A, or answering letters, and one of them was from "little Jimmy Kirk" ?
He did do a q&a but there was no question from Jimmy Kirk.
There's been bad Star Trek going back about as far as one can go.
Yeah Enterprise started in the 2150s and Kirk was born 2233.
You may be thinking of the episode of Quantum Leap where Sam leaps into an actor on a cheesy 50s kid's sci-fi show about time travel and it ends with the host answering fan mail, featuring a letter from little Sam Beckett, which inspired his time travel theories to begin with.
"Wow, we should have a cameo from Professor McGonagall too. People love that character."
"Oh, well actually, in the year that this movie takes place, she hasn't actually been born yet, so we can't do that."
"Throw her in there anyways though. People love that character."
"But she's not alive yet."
"If you don't put Professor McGonagall in this movie, when I buy Canada I'm setting Quebec on fire."
"But that'll ruin all the poutine..."
"I want her in this movie."
"Geez, well okay. We'll have a cameo from Professor McGonagall. Who's gonna be... negative eight years old."
I feel like there's a much higher bar these days than an unserialized syndicated show, though.
I'm so torn on this. lol
On the one hand, yay Guinan. On the other hand, the show has to stop being about just reliving the 90s at some point. lol
The more characters you bring back, the more you have to justify their existence, and the harder that becomes.
Like bringing back Wesley without dealing with the Traveler stuff would just be cheap and give him less of a character arc.
Just imagine Wil is doing the metacommentary after show thing as Wesley, out of time and as an observer of what's passing.
And he constantly mentions how the characters in the show should have solved their problems by manipulating warp fields.
If it were appearing to be reliving the 90s I might agree. But we've already seen what Spiner is doing, and I can't see Riker or Troi being in it for more than 5 mins either.
I have a short question: Can someone please tell me the name of the TNG episode in which the crew finds one of its shuttles and another Picard who comes from the future (only a few hours I think)? They somehow have to avoid the destruction of the Enterprise.
I've taken a look at an episodes overview but couldn't find it yet.

For some reason despite loving both Star Trek and comics I've never really read any Trek comics. Anyone know if any of these on sale on Comixology are worth reading?
The only other comics from that sale I read were Mirror Broken and Through the mirror and those weren't very good in my opinion. I always wanted to see a mirror version of TNG but this didn't work. The novel Dark Mirror was much more interesting.
Just reading the plot for that. I assume it was written before DS9's mirror episodes?
Dark Mirror? Yes, it was written before it.
The comics were written after but also don't fit the DS9 version ... which is weird.
Renegade Cut did a video about the Berman era, and... yikes.
The video is basically "this guy who had faults is so much better than this guy with faults".
You can (and many have) that Roddenberry was pretty much the worst thing to happen to Star Trek beyond Star Trek existing, and people not buying into his vision has arguably led to the best Star Trek of the entire franchise.
The Berman and Braga hate usually glosses over every good thing they did to focus on the bad. Which, okay, you have your preferences. But starting from the Roddenberry apologia before veering into that comes off as disingenuous. And somehow Berman is the sole issue with studios and equal pay... sure.
(I also take issue with taking everyone's word for things but never getting Berman's side of the story. It's certainly convenient for people like Pillar to say they had no knowledge of anything going on and lump it on the guy no one's talking to.)
Berman saying sexist stuff to female cast members is unforgivable, but Roddenberry being a serial womanizer is somehow just flaws of a great man.
I don't know if I can ever be objective of the Berman era, and maybe it's because it's all subjective anyway, but I don't think it's an accident that Trek got worst after Pillar and Taylor and basically Behr/Moore/et al were out of the picture and they were allowed carte blanche.
When Braga was given a blank check to make his own show for CBS during peak Lost-mystery box mania starring Peter Dinklage, he delivered a stinker that was cancelled after a season. I actually have no idea what Berman has done after Trek though.
i have ds9 on in the background when i'm doing stuff and yeh she's a proper arsehole lol.
Watching some old TNG eps...saw the one with the stereotypical Irish villagers and the clones, god damn, that might the worst Trek story I've ever seen.
