I have zero trouble imagining the SNW sets as what TOS would have looked like given infinite budget and future production technology.

The Enterprise H should inexplicably be a 50s B movie cigar rocket ship

It's been a while but isn't this typically remembered as one of the crappiest episodes of the series?

Fondly remembering the TrekBBS days when it was “lovingly” referred to by its acronym - ANIS

Yeah that two parter was written as the series finale by Manny Coto. Then Berman and Braga just tacked on some bullshit we can all ignore.

It’s wild to me that film grain was considered undesirable in the early days of HD.

I thought the only thing that looked a bit off in the first few episodes of DS9 that I've seen was a couple shots of view screens and windows that were composited, probably just spoiled by the TNG recompositing.

There’s a few in Emissary that look very shaky now (DS9 approach and Wolf 359 in Jennifer’s quarters come to mind), but I remember in ‘93 them being pretty “woah” compared to the static view screen shots of TNG, at least to me and my parents.

It does help that DS9 has homosexual subtext from the first episode,

Pagh is just Bajoran for gayness

SNW makes me feel like I’m 8 again sitting in my living room watching new 90s Trek, while also very much being its own thing.

He did get his start on DS9, though. In retrospect, The Darkness and the Light and Empok Nor are very Bryan Fuller.

I said this when I was doing a run through but tons of the awful Voyager stuff is frontloaded and comes up in season 1. "WARP PARTICLES" is like the fourth episode. Not that it becomes a masterpiece, but there are some excellent episodes and plenty of watchable ones.

Yeah, the coffee nebula, warp particles, and sickbay cheese are all in S1. Kinda funny how a good chunk of the major meme moments are knocked really early on.

Yeah, the thing with TOS Spock is that we the audience don’t know about his more human traits, and are surprised when they come out. But to him, they’re accepted and integrated and he’s more comfortable with himself than ever. SNW Spock is very much leading into that.

also tbh i think "Spock dealing with his Human side" is getting to be way over done. TV is full of humans. I would like some vulcans plz

SNW showed with T’Pring that Vulcans are kinky maniacs

Everything is canon, especially TAS, Lower Decks, and the Klingon board game
