old tier list S - DS9 TNG TOS A B C D E - ENT, VOY VOY and ENT are the same tier, they are both filled with unwatchable poo poo where DS9, TNG, and TOS are pretty loving good, VOY and ENT did have good moments where things were basically equal to an average episode of the other 3 series, but gently caress both series were bad orange juche fucked around with this message at 17:06 on May 2, 2023 |

Strange New Worlds is pretty decent, but that’s with comparing it to the mountains of poo poo the rest of new Trek is

I WILL SAY, picard s3 so far has had multiple scenes of picard and one to three members of th bridge crew rationally discussing a tough situation and coming up with two to three alternative plans before ultimately deciding on the one they think is most likely to succeed. which is the most star trek scenes weve had since ds9 wrapped

At least the worst parts of voyager aren't as bad as either code of honor or profit & lace Totally agree that ds9 and tng are much better, but I watched all three more or less sequentially, and voyager wasn't awful, just not as good Couldn't get past episode 1 of ent, so idk about the series as a whole

herculon posted:Strange New Worlds is pretty decent, but that’s with comparing it to the mountains of poo poo the rest of new Trek is Yeah I like strange new worlds more than voyager or enterprise, but Picard season 2 is absolutely the worst star trek has ever been so that might be influencing my opinion.

I still haven't gotten over the fact that the writer of code of honor wrote the same trash racist episode in the same season and episode slot on sg1

It was so weird (as in unusual and unique) to see a male character who loves his son and is shown hugging him and telling him he's proud of him just as a matter of course. Like the ep where Jake says he doesn't want follow in his dad's footsteps and join starfleet and in every TV show ever made sisko would be furious but instead he's just like 'okay well as long as you're happy that's the main thing'

I like Lower Decks. It's trying a little too hard to be rapid-fire jokes in places and some of the humor misses but overall I am finding it fun and funny. The showrunners clearly see and want to celebrate what's fun about classic trek and as a result most of the episodes actually feel like star trek plots, just condensed and silly. I really appreciate that the show is poking fun at the dumber stuff in trek while still upholding the setting and themes that make it special. Some of the stuff, like the constant lens flares in the movie parody episode or the First Contact theme playing when they see the replica Phoenix take off made me laugh a lot.

Generations is passable Trek, but this two-minute epilogue created by the Roddenberry Estate is better than the film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KXU2Ob8gYY Warning, sacreligious use of CGI to put Nimoy's face on some other person's head

DS9 is the best Trek's even been imo, TNG's just a joy to watch in general when its good. Most of the new stuff tries too hard to be prestige tv. I started watching lower decks a couple days ago and it seems alright, agree with Arch above that the general humor was a bit too rapid fire in the two eps I watched but allegedly this gets better later on when they don't have the network scrutinizing them or something Also First Contact owns

Devil's Due is a personal favorite from TNG, I won't claim it's an all-time great episode but it's one of my favs Doomsday Machine from TOS
