/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Fun will now commence.

Ah, sorry, yeah. I thought you were talking about Star Trek as a whole.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago (1 children)

There is an awful TNG episode where the whole crew devolves into lizards and other animals. I just remembered that right now, but I don't remember what it's called.

"Genesis" is the 171st episode of the American science fiction television series Star Trek: The Next Generation and the 19th episode of the seventh season. It was directed by series cast member Gates McFadden, her only directing credit to date.

Does Voyager get better after season one? I'm kind of on the fence if I should continue watching or not.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I absolutely love voyager… a few episode are my all time favorite Star Trek episodes. Just force yourself to watch the whole thing, it does get better after season 3 and some of the best episodes are in the last season.

Yes there are some bad episodes, especially in the beginning, but imo the good far outweighs the bad.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Cool! Thank you. I'll just keep watching then. I'm about 3/4 through the first season

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I think so, but others do not. It's definitely one of the more contentious series.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Which series do you think is best after TNG and DS9?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

I think the next logical choice after those is Voyager whether it's better or not, because it revisits ideas and characters from those two shows. I personally put TOS above them all, but that's the Star Trek closest to my heart since it's the one I was watching from about 2 years old on.

I think they were joking. Do NOT watch Lower Decks until you've watched a lot of other Star Trek because it's got endless references to other shows, especially their plot holes, and you won't get any of it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

I've seen all of TOS, all of DS9, and all of TNG 2 or 3 times, plus all of the movies at least once. Oh, and 5 episodes of SNW, all of Picard, and 3/4 of the first season of Voyager. Amazingly that still leaves a lot of ground to cover.
