The uniforms of Star Trek: Discovery are returning to the Apparel tab of the C-store with the launch of Age of Discovery – and just like before, they're absolutely free!
Season 3 of Enterprise is fantastic and Season 4 is really solid too. Both of those seasons easily redeem the mediocre first two seasons.I finished Season 3 of Enterprise. That whole arc is so fucking good and went to some levels that I never expected them to go (such as the episode Damage where they had to go against all their personal ethics in order to survive). Degra is a great supporting character and the Xindi became fascinating the longer it went on. Maybe the conflict ended a bit too soon for my liking but who knows what is in store for Season 4...
Though I have been told to avoid the series finale like the plague lol.
Yup... Season 3, is my fave season of Enterprise. I love arc story telling, it felt the most DS9 of the show's run.I finished Season 3 of Enterprise. That whole arc is so fucking good and went to some levels that I never expected them to go (such as the episode Damage where they had to go against all their personal ethics in order to survive). The character arc with Malcolm and the Maco was quite well done as well. Degra is a great supporting character and the Xindi became fascinating the longer it went on. Maybe the conflict ended a bit too soon for my liking but who knows what is in store for Season 4...

Damage is one of my favorite episodes of Enterprise, made everything feel so desperate, something I never got with Voyager.I finished Season 3 of Enterprise. That whole arc is so fucking good and went to some levels that I never expected them to go (such as the episode Damage where they had to go against all their personal ethics in order to survive). The character arc with Malcolm and the Maco was quite well done as well. Degra is a great supporting character and the Xindi became fascinating the longer it went on.

It has early tinges of Discovery. A war nobody wanted and a lot of moral grey space.Yup... Season 3, is my fave season of Enterprise. I love arc story telling, it felt the most DS9 of the show's run.
This. It's pretty much the only game in town as they say if you want to immerse yourself in the world of Star Trek, pilot a ship, go on away missions, etc. Bridge Crew only offers so much even with the TNG DLC and I'm not sure how many know you no longer need a VR headset for it. The mobile games are either gem games or card games. Star Trek Timelines is the one that comes closest to STO but you need a good phone for it I feel or you can play it on Steam I think but that's pretty limited and has gems you buy systems like STO.I think a lot of its success is probably down to the lack of Prime universe content and good Star Trek games. It fills the niche.
The 80s were a weird time.I just caught the second half of Conspiracy on BBC America. I haven't seen that episode in decades. I'm surprised they aired that episode back in the day. That ending was pretty graphic for TV.
Gilligan's Island executes Voyager's basic concept better than Voyager did.I've said it in other Trek related threads and I'll say it again, season 3 of Enterprise executes Voyager's basic concept better than Voyager did
Gilligan's Island executes Voyager's basic concept better than Voyager did.
Star Trek Online covered it.
Ron Moore mentioned in an interview that the Voyager producers were seriously considering bringing the ship home and soft rebooting the show, but Ron told them that was quitter talk. Voyager had a perfectly fine concept, and they should embrace their concept and see what they could do with it, not try to run away from it.The concept itself shouldn't be hard to do. You have to purposefully not want to do it. To this day I don't know why they didn't just get Voyager home in like season 2 or 3 and then really turn the show into TNG 2.0 that they seemed to want to do. Has anyone on the producer ever been asked that?
DS9 collapsing the Dominion War into what happens in and around DS9 always felt like a severe misstep, especially since they were schizophrenic about dealing with the war until they hit the final stretch anyhow. Stuff like Betazed getting invaded should have some weight, and instead it's an irrelevant name drop that's just there to push The Sisko.
So it wasn't explained. STO is worthless drivel storywise and non-canon anyway.Star Trek Online covered it.
Do you remember the "clicky-sounds" aliens from "Schisms" episode? The aliens who kidnap crew members and conducts experiments on them and returns them back to the ship without them realizing.
Star Trek Online calls those aliens the "Solanae".

Voyager had a perfectly fine concept, and they should embrace their concept and see what they could do with it, not try to run away from it.
Also, if Voyager made it home after being stranded for years on the other side of the galaxy, cut off from all their friends and loved ones, why the hell would anyone agree to get back on that ship and follow Captain Janeway out into the void again? Does Harry want to be an Ensign forever? It would be cult-like behavior for these people to continue serving on Voyager in the Alpha Quadrant as if nothing had changed.
No, the show never picked up those storyline bits. Admittedly yes, the way STO ties so many things together is too convenient but it filled the void for me during the dark times without ANY Trek to speak of.So it wasn't explained. STO is worthless drivel storywise and non-canon anyway.
The interview was right after the end of DS9, so no more Dominion War. Ron Moore (who had been exclusively working on TNG and then DS9) moved over to Voyager (for season 6), and he realized that he absolutely hated the way things were done on Voyager, so he quit.Do we know when about this is? I mean, would Voyager be coming back to the Dominion war or after it ends? It is slightly odd that DS9 and Voyager were kept separate. No one on DS9 cares or mentions about the missing starship since there was a war going on and people on Voyager hardly ever mention the Dominion war after Message in a Bottle. Voyager never adhered to its concept or it would be more like the Equinox and the whole Marquis set up was incompatible from the start when you removed them immediately from the source of that conflict. I would have liked to have seen the likes of Eddington on Voyager though.
Voyager's producers initially thought that ideas like the Maquis were great ideas, and then when the time came to implement those ideas, they realized that they didn't like those ideas anymore and didn't care to do anything with them.
That's the show touching on one of it's core ideas once (in the first season), and doing it to explain why they almost never touch on that idea.I thought Chakotay made it clear in the episode Learning Curve that he is the one keeping them in line. If they want to "do things the old way" he's more than willing to punch them right in the face, because in the old days that's what was done.
So I decided to watch all of trek in chronological order starting with enterprise (which I'd never seen before). I just got to the tos movies and goddamn I forgot how perfect Wrath of Khan is.
They brought back the original showrunners from the first two seasons for the finale and they... well, it's hard to describe it any way other than imagining some coked-up sibling written out of the will holding a can of gasoline and cackling about how they're "burning the house down because if we can't have it, nobody can!"Wrapped up Enterprise for the first time yesterday. Um, what the hell? I actually don't mind the concept, but Troi, Ryker, and Data's acting were all awful, the sets felt cheap and Frakes just-for-men and girdle weren't fooling anyone. Also, killing you know who completely ties your hands if somehow there was a clamoring for more adventures with this crew.
Also, there was a huge downgrade in special effects in the 4th season.
Makes me cry every time.
