Modern Star Trek should be criticizing the status quo instead of implying that we are all trapped in it forever

If it's on tv its not a fanfic anymore, mkay? It's canon, mkay? And Orville is a love letter to Trek. The one that became bigger than what it loves.

It is contemporary, we can support it, vote for it, talk about it and indirectly in some ways direct its general direction. Unlike tng, which we can only rewatch and nostalgically cherish our memories about it.

AntherUslessPoster posted:If it's on tv its not a fanfic anymore, mkay? Yeah, nah; The point is to over-idolize a single character and put them in a big high-stakes action adventure with THEIR ship and crew with edgy backgrounds and grimdark dramatic storytelling. If it looks, quacks, and acts like a duck, you can call it a duck.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oORNagSrlNs I can't help but feel that Cardassian literature is the writer's room mocking the endless repetitive nature of television and film telling the same stories over and over again.

Okay tonight I'm watching Voyager season 2, "Resolutions". All I remember is that Chakotay and Janeway live on a planet together and it gets awkward.

What's actually interesting is that I think the Voyager people call their chief engineer "Bay Lana" sometimes and "Buh Lana" other times. And the "Buh Lana" pronunciation kind of wins out over times. That's interesting.

They did a really good job with this. "Tribunal" adds some good fleshing-out too. I actually think they're more internally coherent than the Klingons just by virtue of only seriously being on one show. Yes they're on TNG but it's not many episodes.
