So, uh, when is the next season of STD? My life is so empty that I lack even for things to complain about. The Mike & Saru show filled that void nicely.

lol but seriously I posted:Borg queen was kind of cool the first time, even though she wrecked up the alien weirdness of the Borg in a big way. It was only when she turned into Rita Repulsa that poo poo got BAD bad. My impression first time seeing the best of both worlds where Picard gets turned into Locutus was that the Borg were trying to gently caress with the crew of the Enterprise, to better defeat them. . . then they just sort of ignored them and took off to Earth, which didn't really make sense. In First Contact I was sure that they just up and made to Borg Queen on the spot to try and seduce the codes out of Data, but then when it's revealed that she and Picard had rusty borg sex, it didn't make sense either. The Borg were a cool concept, but the writers ran out of ideas after TNG.

really though i imagine for the movie they were just like "well we can't just have the borg be some sort of impersonal collective, we need a villain." "ok, how about a queen. make sure she has nice titties. i know, what if she tries to gently caress data." "right, and let's make picard an angry psychopath."

Just finished VOY. Oh my loving god. Of course the finale leant on time travel as a crutch The romance with Seven also came out of nowhere in like one episode three before the finale too. What a pile of wank. Watching Farpoint now to start my last leg of the Big 3 Treks. And hahahahhaa the sound production is like College TV Station quality. All echos on the ship and rustling in the marketplace. The acoustic padding is visibly obvious in the Ready Room. Saucer separation before we've even really met the bridge crew. Q straight out of the gate god this is a wild ride. Excessive pausing and long looks. VO not matching gaps left by actors. What are those phasers so small for? Those skirts! A dude in one of those skirts! Diana's accent is... wtf? Kind of like she's trying to add a tinge of Russian or French, but it's much less pronounced in her telepathy. Irl she's a common cockney trollop though so I guess it's all artificial anyway. Riker's clearly meant to be Kirk-But-With-Things-Still To Learn from wise old grump who's firm but fair and hates children, Picard. And are those rank pips giving us a 1st Lt? I don't think I've seen one of those before in DS9 or VOY. Worf's makeup, and with a gold sash with tassles? Fancy. Talkative computer. I haven't watched much TNG but that interior doesn't look even nearly the same in the corridors as what I think I remember. Transporters look different too. Yar's acting is probably best left unmentioned. Those Sunburst Yellow walls in engineering, Burnt Orange floor on the bridge, pastel mood lighting in the turbolifts. Planet backgrounds all strange colour skies and faded gradients. Shields called shields but also forcefields? Okay. Ferengi... eat people now? Fake edit: sound is much better handled towards the end. Music better integrated too already. Lol Data prodding the 4th wall breaking off mid-sentence to say "Sorry sir, I seem to be always commenting on everything". You know what? If there had been Space Station Jellyfish in VOY I'd be equally as amused but this gave them much more screen time after "ok the problem's been solved". It doesn't just go "glib remark from Janeway, roll credits". This is loving hilarious and I love it so much.

There are big 3 Treks but Voyager isn't one of them.  "Encounter At Farpoint" was a pilot and those are pretty rough to begin with. The difference between most series' pilots and first real episodes are often remarkable. Add that the first two seasons of Star Trek are really mediocre television, you've got a real rough introduction. Keep in mind that TNG was produced for syndication and not a major network (novel at the time). All three networks would've made a hard pass if that pilot landed on their desks. That TNG had time to develop into an excellent series is a miracle.
