Hasn't it already been confirmed that the new Trek series is gonna take place in the JJ Trek timeline? I just hope we don't get a ton of stories about how secretly corrupt Starfleet is. I feel like between later TNG and DS9 we already got enough of those stories.

Also, watching TOS Metamorphosis yesterday, were they really all smiles letting that Starfleet ambassador lady get possessed by The Companion, and living out her life on an asteroid possessed and banging Zephrym Cochrane? I know Elinor Donahue played a really annoying character, but that still seemed weird to me.

So the new Trek Series is JJ Trek? That is so disappointing.

Let's get real about Betty from Father Knows Best. You've got 3 Starfleet Officers that find it completely acceptable to leave you stranded on planet possessed by a over clingy space cloud that wants to shack up with space Methuselah. How long was that shuttle ride, 5 or 6 hours? When you rub 3 complete strangers that wrong in that short of a time you have it coming. Considering she's an ambassador, they did the Federation a solid.

But you're right, there is a disturbing subtext though and that is if you 're an uptight, stressed out professional (woman) just do the world the favor and get yourself laid. Considering that Kirk gets laid every third episode and Spock once every seven years, that kind of just reinforces the message.

And that is Gene Roddenberry's roadmap to utopia in a nutshell.

This is a good post and you should be proud of it.

Also Betty was a real bitch on Father Knows Best too, so I might have been tempted to ditch her. She was only slightly better than the troll-faced little sister. It's all about dreamy Bud.

I don't necessarily disagree with putting it in JJ Trek. Alright, vulcans be hosed and I'm sure it'll be an annoying recurrence. But I feel no matter what they did, they'd still put in nonsensical revelations and discoveries about all the races they've established. Might as well do it in place where things were different and aren't cannon anymore. Alternate cannon or whatever.

What matters is letting Meyer do whatever he wants.

Good point, but even the best creatives lose their magic.

I would've preferred setting In the future a few decades like TNG did. We'll see. Apparently Star Trek Online is canon so maybe that corner is too crowded.

The only real emotion that star trek makes me feel is upset that we'll never get another minute of the universe that TNG, Voyager, and DS9 existed in. It will always always be nu-trek or something else. It was a good universe with potential, even if it was a bit stupid.

One thing I've noticed in my watch through of Voyager is that whenever someone says something like:

"Doesn't this fresh morning air feel good in your lungs?"

Neelix always responds with an under his breath passive-aggressive "it's just lung" which I find hilarious. It's probably the most referenced piece of continuity on the show.

(They crawl to another junction.)
NEELIX: It's so hot. My head is spinning.
JANEWAY: You've got a high fever, fluid in your lungs.

Janeway doesn't even bat an eye to it. No one ever does every time it happens.
