I'm like partway through season 2. I like the new captain (I liked Sinclair as well, shame about his apparent mental state though) and while superficially its pretty similar to DS9, they also didn't have to adhere to any lore poo poo, so that's nice for a bit of the unexpected. Londo is a huge dick so far, but as a character is surprisingly likable. I think the DS9 comparisons wear off after you get over the immediate resemblance, but maybe further seasons will prove me wrong.

But seriously I think the best moment in DS9 was when like a poo poo ton of klingon or maybe it was romulans uncloaked to save the day and it was like gently caress yeah. then they reused the footage a bunch but the first time it was cool. DS9 easily had the best cast, and it not being soo much monster of the week was a good thing for star trek. Enterprise was good for the same reason with over arching plots but I guess the theme song sucked so gently caress that show or whatever the opinion was.

but the genesis missiles. Cracks me up in 3 when his son dies and Kirks like whatevs! I think in the 4th one he glances at the picture of his son. Kirk is a dick.

I think that went back to TOS because both had the D7 or whatever battlecruiser iirc. which I imagine was people reusing stuff in the show, and of course there is long lore explanation about why that is that some nerd wrote. I only noticed this because I noticed the ship was the same on two different model kits one day

Does Colm Meaney hold the record for most Star Trekking? He was on two of the longest series regularly. Kinda funny if so!

I watched an episode of TNG where they met an androgynous race, and riker fell in love with one and convinced it was a girl then it turns out she was just considered broken by society and they "fixed" her lol

the only time worf ever bum rushes anyone is when they're super strong like the borg and need to show the audience that they are indeed strong. I mean if we are talking TNG Worf, because in DS9 he'd photon torpedo anyone

I like that they kinda alluded to Roddenberry being a creep but not saying that because probably financing legal issues. Where can one learn more about his weirdness perhaps in documentary form or a short read thats not a complete biography?

you could do a similar list for TNG Some space dust makes every body bone each other, Data, while unaffected, bangs yar The crew encounters a race of tribal black men want to force one of the enterprise crew to marry them (Yar again?) The Royale as you mentioned  The struggles of having a cargo load of 19th century Irish in your space ship Something something the holodeck malfunctioned/captured by aliens/whatever and Professor Data must solve a sherlock holmes mystery (like every season) Its easy to cherry pick the worst poo poo wow

I mean, of course looking at TOS through the eyes of 2015 it is pretty bad stuff, but compared to others 1960s television, I mean what the gently caress. The play Uhura with a straight face which is really kind of unheard of at the time. The only other show that I think remains watchable is the Twilight Zone and probably the Outer Limits, from that era. Unless of course you love variety shows and Lucille Ball or whatever. Maybe its not so much that TOS was good as the 1960s were pretty terrible but IDK.

Orange Sunshine posted:You forgot to mention the bad lighting. Harsh shadows everywhere, weird colored lights everywhere. There's a pink light on one wall, some green lights shining over here, some blue lights over there. It wouldn't be Star Trek TOS without colored lights against the walls in every drat scene. Totally out of my rear end, but I wonder if it had to do with the advent of color television and just going HOG WILD with the possibilities.

"Captain's Log, Stardate 3113.2, subjective time: We were en route to Starbase 9 for resupply when a black star of high gravitational attraction began to drag us toward it. It required all warp power in reverse to pull us away from the star but like snapping a rubber band, the breakaway sent us plunging through space, out of control to stop here, wherever we are." thats how that episode has GREAT F-104 porn
