/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. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 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'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

It can be from any series, and if you want to pick a favorite from each show go ahead.

Picture very much related.

It's funny so many people picked Voyager episodes as their favorites. I remember when Voyager was supposedly "the bad Star Trek." I always liked it.

[–] EssentialCoffee@midwest.social 2 points 11 months ago

The issue with Voyager was that you could pretty much give any characters lines at the end of the show to any other character and it would still work. There was no real character arc, none of them grew. They were still basically the same people from the first episode.

Don't get me wrong, they did have some phenomenal characters (The Doctor), but overall, it was just... meh.

But hey, if you like it, you like it. It got seven seasons, so plenty of folks did.

Yeah, I'm slowly making my way through DS9 at the moment and haven't thought about Voyager at all. Now maybe I'll give it a second chance (only saw it when it was on TV).

[–] Transporter_Room_3@startrek.website 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I do remember people mocking DS9 and Voyager rather harshly, I wonder how my parent's old Official ^TM^star trek fan club group would weigh in? They used to discuss/debate the episodes while playing random games.

People hated on TNG when it came out.

[–] AlfredEinstein@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

There was no widespread hatred that I was aware of. And by season 2, it was pretty universally liked.
