The second series, 2202, is somehow prettier. I hope this studio never runs out of work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSrYskeie-s

Any new Star Trek animated series that's going for an old-school anime feel absolutely needs to get the music right, too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1GsQSJzmd1A

Firefly is the terrible live action adaptation of an anime that Cowboy Bebop got.

I just watched TNG's "The Icarus Factor" what a snooze-fest. They should've known not to title an episode "The _____ Factor" again, it never seems to bode well. I'm not even sure what the title means anyway, it's the one with Riker's dad. The only bright spot was the ending, for both good and bad reasons. Worf's pain-mitzvah party was pretty sweet. The Rikers suddenly going "LET'S SETTLE THIS WITH THE ULTIMATE EVOLUTION OF MARTIAL ARTS" and then playing American Gladiators for 2 minutes was the best kind of unintentionally hilarious.

I'm glad Riker was able to come to terms with his dad running heroin out of Southeast Asia with Shadow Company.

I don't really understand the title either. I would expect the "Icarus Factor" would involve an A story where someone "flies too close to the sun" in some manner, leading to their downfall or at least a good solid knock on the rear end. I see nothing of the sort. What's Riker's hubris? Worf's?

Part of it is due to Roddenberry fuckery, apparently:Memory Alpha posted:Director Robert Iscove accepted this assignment as he was a fan of the original series. He remarked, "It was an emotional piece, a character piece between two people. The father has deserted Riker for 25 years, then he comes back and they have this confrontation. Well, according to Roddenberry, by the 24th century we've all kind of resolved those feelings of anger. So it's very hard to play. If you're not going to serve the resentment and the anger, what happens once the two of them get together, you can't get into any real Human drama... The original series was much more humanistic in its approach." As for the title, maybe someone only remembered the "son not doing what his father said" part of the myth?

Like, The Cost of Living - sounds like an intense episode, right? Nope, Lwaxana mud bath. The worst offenders are episodes where the title is literally just the name of the Alien Guest Star of the Week.

One of the first Trek things I remember being exposed to online is a series of joke scripts answering the question “how would each series of Trek change a lightbulb”. The scripts were probably not that funny, but they absolutely nailed the naming conventions. TOS was “And Who Shall Bring Us Light?”, TNG was “The Change” or something similarly bland...probably all lost to the bowels of the web now.

See also "The Dauphin" That was another mediocre episode with a good Worf moment near the end. Everyone's like omg this person is actually a changeling who can morph into a beast that can kill Worf, and Worf is just like lol that owns

I'll take alien episode names over stuff like "Relativity" or "Gravity" because I at least can remember what they are about from the title

^^^ hey, there we go! What a blast. And it’s by the evil overlord list guy! Very Web 1.0. Dauphin isn’t her name, it’s a slightly jokey reference to her position. I like the episode ok. It’s corny and still in the period where the series was finding its feet, but at least the joke is on Wesley for once. skasion fucked around with this message at 18:23 on Aug 30, 2018 |

Give episode names based on background minutiae, throwaway lines, or inconsequential scenes. "The Lucky Loonie" "Captain Boday" "Luau in the Wardroom"
