I literally don't remember this.
>>217878597Insurrection
You know what nutrek could do that I'd watch? Klingon cooking show. Set during Kirk's era and made as in-universe propaganda.
>>217878581holy shit is that the guy who killed mozart??
>>217878704but klingons don't cook they food
>>217878730They don't even kill it sometimes.
>>217878581PRACTICE!
How awful must the replicator food be? Nobody has the chance to experiment with their own herbs and spices. At least voyager had a cook.
>>217878704>Klingon Top Chef where the chefs accuse each other of cooking without honor
>>217878804>In the final round the surprise ingredient is the heart of the chef who was eliminated in the previous round
>The Ma'quis getting shafted because of a treaty>Picard: We can't help them. We must uphold the rule of law and the treaties established by the Federation. It's for the sake of the larger peace.>some pretty white woman looking alien from Insurrection asks for help>Picard: WE MUST TAKE A STAND! WE WILL FIGHT TO THE LAST BECAUSE IT'S THE RIGHT THING TO DO, FUCK THE FEDERATION!Insurrection in a nutshell
>>217878786There's probably tons of people who like the feeling of making their own food. You just don't see much of it in Starfleet because they're so busy.
>>217878581Would
>>217878872Insurrection is such an annoying movie with its preaching, and BaKu are a bunch of sanctimonious assholes.
>>217878709We could have got any Starfleet cadet to do it. 50 bucks!
>>217878730They roast targ. I see gagh, racht, and the like as the Klingon equivalent of sushi, but otherwise I don't see them as a people focusing entirely on dishes prepared to prioritize the freshness of it.
>>217878786Replicator food being bad always sounded like major cope to me in a universe where they convert stuff between energy and matter all fucking day long.
I love T’Pol!
>>217879069>>217878879>>217878786Was there ever a reason given why replicators couldnt do the same thing with living beings?
>>217878786I've noticed nearly all fast food tastes measurably worse than it did 10 years ago. I can taste the different oils and cheeses they use to save money. So I imagine that's how people feel about replicated food. Not quite the same but good enough.
>>217878543A beautifully sad post.
fresh fruits and vegetables are still alive when you eat them. if i replicate a stalk of celery is it alive? did the replicator just create life?
>>217879204the molecules are rearranged
>>217878581I wish I controlled the franchise. I could give them a series which would bring back all the fans
>>217879259let's hear your pitch
>>217879204>fresh fruits and vegetables are still alive when you eat them
>create a digital being who's meant to represent the typical 17-year-old female human>make it look like this for some reason
>>217879125Or it’s just that it’s always the same and the characters are people who were so desperate for excitement and new things they joined the military.
>>217878535>they’re genetically designed to pick cotton!
>>217879259It's very obvious they don't want the old fans back. Every franchise aimed at a certain demographic is being destroyed in real time. How come The Muppets can have a great revival and totally avoid modern trends, but not Star Trek?
>>217879322Pot of greed lookin ass ho
>>217879314>The federation exists and is good>The series focuses on the crew of a starfleet ship which is composed of skilled highly-trained individuals who conduct themselves like mature adults>Mostly episodic, focusing on various encounters with alien civilizations which challenge the crew's values and sense of ethics>It's fun
>>217879392sounds too risky, the world isn't ready for that kind of radical tv format.
>>217879386It's insane to me that in 2026 with all the advances in special effects and costuming that have happened, they cannot manage to make a Klingon that doesn't look like his face is made of cut up plastic dinner plates that have been glued together and then colored with a sharpie.
>>217879314>make new episodes with the same techniques and cameras of the stuff people liked but call it aesthetic and market it to zoomers
>>217879387Sorry that's on me, I used an unflattering photo
>>217879476Idk who the hyper clean design wave was made for in the last decade or so. I think it was a predictive measure so AI can replicate media better
>>217879537>The black woman’s creedThis explains experiences at the DMV so much.
>>217879565>I think it was a predictive measure so AI can replicate media betterThat and flat minimalism scales better to mobile displays.
>Hey guys I know super 9/11 just happened and completely fucked the entire god damned galaxy beyond repair and everything is bad an awful now, but we made time travel super duper illegal so we can't fix it, sorry guys it's just not in the cards.>No, the time travel police we used to have specifically to prevent criminals from using time travel don't exist anymore, we blew up all our time machines so now criminals can't use time travel either because we made laws saying they can'tThis might be the single most retarded plot point Kurtzman wants me to accept about his dumbass version of the Star Trek timeline.
>>217879322How could you not see a smile like that and feel contagious joy? Yeah shes uggo but come on man, have some mirror neurons
>romulan refugees
>klingon refugees
>>217879565>>217879650minimalist design makes sense for things like graphic design, even if I think it looks objectively worse in a lot of cases than the alternative, I understand the appeal of using it.How people can look at shit like >>217879386 and not think it looks like absolute fucking ass is beyond me though.
>>217879756looks like a commercial for gay
Star Trek is dead, but who is even left at this point with the skill to save it?
>>217879119Like generate parts? It's stated that they can. Geordi could have had real eyes. Presumably there are restrictions on trying to make whole lifeforms.Nobody really gets into it because it's basically the Bones p-zombie thing with transporters.People try to argue energy usage as a reasoning for some of this stuff, but that doesn't really hold up in most cases either. You basically have to admit that the Federation is just a friendly pod-world where energy is the true currency and only the elites are allowed the good stuff.
>>217879884It's a no-go. A major cultural shift is needed.
>>217879884The goal will always be to widen the audience and squeeze as much money out of it because having a smaller, but more dedicated fanbase isn't good enough.
>>217879884Nobody. Television is a dead medium, there's nobody with talent left in the entire fucking business.
>>217879387cannot unsee
>>217879322>>217879386>>217879537>>217879557>this is going to happen to Stargate nextkill me
>>217879259Prove it. Give me your pitch.
>>217880105>Star Trek>Written by people who like Star Trek
>>217880073AMANUET
>>217880073BAAH!
>>217880105The signatories of the temporal accords agree to undo the burn and everything that takes place after the 29th century is undone. Start a new series taking place in the 2420s, same seasonal budget as the other new shows but spread over twice as many episodes instead of going into effects. Character driven with a strong ensemble cast designed to play off each other, episodic with a few potential plotlines for serialized storytelling sprinkled around. If any of them resonate they can be expanded on.
>>217879077BASED
I'm about to watch Picard so that I can be more informed when I call it shit. Any episodes of good Trek I should rewatch to have fresh in my mind first?
>>217880670>Any episodes of good Trek I should rewatch to have fresh in my mind first?No. Literally none of them would be relevant and you'd just be making yourself suffer worse from the whiplash from good to shit.
>>217879884The D&D movie makers are making a new movie. The movie was fun so hope they can pull something off thats adventure focused and exciting
>>217880670Tapestry, he bangs a 17 year old
>>217880711Wonder if they'll want to bring Pine back or they'll fresh start reboot it
is it gay if i get teary eyed when Picard sees his mom in Where No One Has Gone Before
>>217880808Yes.
>>217880762>Kelvin timeline
>>217880808>Pisscard retcons his past so his mother is mental and kills herself
>>217880952He was referring the Pine's DND character, retardo Bones.
>>217880711I fucking hated this film. Forgotten Realms bores the shit out of me, but I love Frieren for some reason. I couldn't finish BG3, but I played DA:O like three times.
>>217878581>>217880784based Jonaleth
captain, i see no logical reason why i should "give you head" under the present circumstances.
>>217881061Do you think a Vulcan first officer would give the captain sloppy toppy on the daily if he effectively argued that he's able to think more clearly and command more efficiently when he's gotten his rocks off?
>>217881061I gave you an order Tuvok, and I expect you to follow it.
>>217881011Ah. Well, Pine was way more likable in D&D than his Kirk imitation.
Can Data actually consent to sex?
Borg Queen was a mistake, I don't know what Kurtzman thoug... What do you mean this is long before him?
>>217881177What does likeable mean? How do you write a character that is likeable? Do they not have flaws or something? I consider Dukat a likeable character, but the dude is a total asshole, and the term seems pretty subjective to me so I never understood it.
>>217881189Of course he can, he's fully functional after all.
>>217881248>What does likeable mean?relatable in a way that is endearing. it can be good or bad.
>>217881248>What does likeable mean?It means you enjoy watching them you autistic retard.
>>217881248If a character is likable, you want them to succeed. When I watched Pine in D&D, he felt like a real part of that world. But watching the J.J. Abrams movies, he just felt like a guy in a James Kirk Halloween costume.
>>217880980>"I always used to imagine her as an old woman..."What a hamfisted retcom.
>>217881295Okay, but how do you write a character that people enjoy watching? >>217881277 says relatability, but I was always taught that the most important thing when it comes to character writing was agency.
>>217881350you're not required to make a character be likable for it to be a well written character. it's unrelated. Dukat written the exact same way saying the exact same lines but delivered by a different actor with a different agenda for him could have easily came off as unlikable. it's not all down to the writing.
>>217881350>Okay, but how do you write a character that people enjoy watching?Write a character that you would enjoy watching, and don't be autistic.
>>217881189Yes he uses a TCP handshake with Kerberos authentication.Haha I'm making a packet joke–ACK!
>>217881248>I consider Dukat a likeable character,One time, in Quark's bar, Dukat asked what Morn liked about Aktuh and Maylota. Morn started on a fifteen minute long diatribe I won't bore you with, but the gist of it was "he liked the lyrics and the composer was a great lyricist."Dukat laughed for twice (fünf) as long as Morn and then had him executed for crimes against Cardassia and fled into the Badlands, cackling the whole time.Morn's beleaguered Nestor? Albert Einstein. Agree?
THEY WEAR GLASSES NOW???
>>217881509I know right, how stupid is that?
>>217878581>What kind of alien should we make?>Uhhhh how about a guy that looks like just just has a nutsack stretched out over his face?
>>217881350>how do you write a character that people enjoy watching?booba
>>217879322>>217879716honestly, she's a solid 6/10, not that bad looking when she tries to not be ugly as fug... But then the Paramont Plus production team makes her look like this for TV
>>217881350>but I was always taught that the most important thing when it comes to character writing was agency.To quote Gene Ray, Cubic: you were educated stupid. This is why you aren't a successful gap-toothed writer hag unlike Tawny Newsome. Relatability is king. Moreover, the actor has to convey that relatability in a way that engenders empathy, even if the writing is meh. Andreas Katsoulas as G'Kar on Babylon 5, for example, really pulled the majority of the weight of JMS's overly clinical, McSweeney's tier overwrought dialogue. He did so through body language and tempo.
>>217881248You also don't find Captain Kirk likable because you bring your bias in of disliking William Shatner into the show from the outside, so basically what I'm saying is that you're a fucking retard with no self-awareness and your opinions on characters should be dismissed outright.
>>217881534Didn't watch the movie award
>>217881603>honestly, she's a solid 6/10, not that bad looking when she tries to not be ugly as fug
>>217881603The enslopification will continue until morale improves.
>>217881630>JMS's overly clinical, McSweeney's tier overwrought dialogue.Fake B5 fan detected. JMS' writing is the only reason to even watch Babylon 5.
>>217881682R E L E V A N C Y
>>217880670you should watch tng instead of shitcard, and then watch shitcard
>talk about character agency>nobody knows what the fuck it meansMy bad.
>>217880808Yno
>>217881603
>>217881689Nigger you don't even know JMS like I do. I stan Captain Power. I even know the elements that were reused in Gargoyles and Murder:She Wrote (!). Step off. The man writes a great story and community theater tier dialogue.
>>217881907You're dismissed.
I AM TOSK.
Everyone in classic Star Trek is heterosexual, sexually very vanilla. Makes you wonder why.
>>217881932it's Talon and the mutants (reused in Gargoyles) and Lyman Taggart (Murder: She Wrote) by the way.Someone did an AI upscale of Captain Power on YouTube. It still looks like it's motion smoothed to death but it's still worth seeing. The Overmind commands it.
>>217878581He looks like Lt. Frank Drebin
>>217881907Same energy as one of those "I'm 71 years old and I've been watching Star Trek since 1966 and this is why Starfleet Academy is good!" postsfuck off
>>217879322I hope she dies of an overdose.
>>217881963Yeah. Totally.
>>217879125That whole thing doesn't really make that much sense when this shit is spawned in with fine control on a molecular level. Shit tastes worse IRL because they're trying to use cheaper and cheaper shit. Unless a protein molecule is cheaper than a carb or some shit it shouldn't really be a problem for replicators.
>>217881509It’s an aesthetic handicap like Obrien’s fatness or Picard’s baldness, Wesley’s homosexuality
>>217881994I know it pains you fag shippers but yes, Garak is exclusively heterosexual. You're a fool if you believe anything the master spy did in his first meeting with Bashir was sincere. He was making the obvious rookie uncomfortable and ripe for exploitation, as any good spy would do when spotting an easy mark like Bashir.It's also why Section 31 went after him.
>>217881990I do not listen to the youth
>>217881955O'Brien?
>>217882008>like Obrien’s fatnessYou wish, pal.
>>217881994Tbf Garak was a victim of child abuse, like all homosexuals
>>217881963I miss this

>>217881994Just a simple tailor...
>>217882098For all the wild places they went, a titty was still as tantalizing as ever.Bravo, Roddenberry & Berman
>>217879314>>217880105It's a short series because I just want to explore a few ideas and end it before it drags out and turns to shit. A up and coming voyager gets teleported to the farthest reaches of space where we they are stranded and we explore the origins of the Borg. It feels a bit like Walking Dead and a lot like Star Trek as we explore the human element of survival. The series ends on the twist that they teleported back into the past too and influenced the creation of the Borg.
>>217882098Zoomers hate sexuality in their media you’d think someone would take notice already
>>217882127And what of good Piller?

>>217879314As a kid I saw the time ships in voyager and assumed that that was the next logical place trek would go. Of course back then I still had hope for the future of humanity

>>217882203nothing evil about that

o'brien was always based
Currently rewatching TOS S3.I remember anons saying that it's awful dogshit.I had a friend who I got into Trek saying that it's fuckawful.I'm halfway through it and aside from the first episode it's... OK? It lacks the bangers the other seasons had, but it's just average at worst.Honestly TOS is much more enjoyable than I remember, but the last time I watched it was like a decade ago, so maybe I've changed myself, or my TV standards are just so fucking low nowadays.
>Having no trouble penetrating the crust, Captain

>>217883649this is what they get for trying to turn Star Trek into positive reinforcement social programming.
I am loving the cheesiness of TOS, been a long time since I watched any of it and it's somehow refreshing compared to heavy CGI use.

>>217885484It's just empty memberberries, don't think about it too much. It's for morons.
>>217885484Nah it's actually crazy that for a franchise literally known for having fans who obsess over the insanely specific lore, these modern showruners are just throwing shit to the wind and jamming their new show with "MEMBER THIS" in ways that make absolutely no sense

>>217885719Alright if we're being pedantic here the first case of this was Star Trek Generations
>>217885484member the one where they go to a holodeck recreation of a vegas club with holographic not-sinatra where he whines about segregation when vegas of that era was the least segregated town in america thanks largely to sinatra himself refusing to play at casinos that wouldn't let sammy davis gamble?
>>217885719That's not even remotely similar, how disengenuious of you
>>217885662>>217885712Are these even real? I can't tell, toy lines back then really did make toys out of fucking anything regardless of if any children actually watched the show
>>217885719This was a tastefully done episode to celebrate Star Treks 30th anniversary. The fact you can't tell the difference is kind of sad.
>>217885804It's Star Trek's 60th anniversary this year. If you were a real fan you'd know that. Go back to your Voltrons, you unemployed useless eater who lacks both relatability and agency.
>>217885719That was gay nostalgia bait too, but at least it wasn't entirely retarded. Nor was it used to try and get people to like the show. They didn't whip that out till season five. >>217885740It always shocked me that Brooks didn't direct or write it.I'm sure he had no qualms about being in that episode, but it seems like the kind story line he would write. Maybe "Vegas has always been racist" was his addition.
>>217885794There were toys for Aliens, Predator and a kids' cartoon for Starship Troopers.
>>217885850Pretty sure there were also toys for the actual starship troopers movie too, before the kid's cartoon
>>217885719Shut up, Anon!
>>217885834Okay, was that Academy episode specifically an anniversary episode? If you can't tell the difference between a love letter to the franchise vs shoving in random inconsistent lore to try to look like a legitimate fan then I don't know what to tell you.
>>217885876>If you can't tell the difference between a love letter to the franchise vsSeems like you're on the wrong side of this. Might be your brain scramblies or the fact you've lost everyone in your life, but you're probably just stupid.
There is a right way and a wrong way to do nostalgia. Tawny Newsome isn't smart enough or talented enough and she has too much of an ego to do anything subtlety or tastefully.
>>217885794I had this toy
>>217878597No surprise: it's from Insurrection,
>>217885908Are you just being contrain for fun? If you genuinely believe this shit then I pity you
>>217885794It's late in it's life star trek. Everyone knew 40 year olds would buy these
>>217885529but enough about you>>217885719not even remotely similar, and you had this explained to you like you were a toddler half a dozen times, which makes you spamming this disingenuous response even more pathetic
>>217885973They are lonely and just want attention. They aren't funny or interesting, so they have to be contrarian instead. It is all they have going for them.
>>217885908except it's not a love letter, because they don't actually know anything about ds9, because they don't care. you really are retarded goycattle
Do we have examples of franchises that were deep in the shitter but made a resurrected comeback?
>>217886061TOS

>>217886061Honestly, you are going to hate me for this answer but DBZ. It was fucked after GT, and then it came back with the Beerus movie and Super.
>>217885973>>217886018>NOOOOOOO you're being CONTRARIAN it's only a love letter when MY TEAM DOES IT I posit the problem isn't contrarianism, you're merely tribalistic and treat the show like a sports game.
>>217886159How did you even manage to solve the captcha
I don't even watch the show, and I treat the show like it is a big pile of donkey shit.
>>217879314>>217880105It's set on Jupiter Station, and set in the time shortly after enterprise.See image for the station as it would eventually be, in my series, there are only two disks built. One houses the cargo transport and repair station that other series have referenced, one of the disks is off limits to everyone and the audience eventually find out is run by what would later become starfleet intelligence.One of the characters would be a young Dr Zimmerman, decades before he started working on his medical hologram; but after (according to canon) he was assigned to Jupiter station, working in the holo programming and micro-weapons section. In the series, he would be much younger than the current actor who plays zimmerman/the doctor, and would be the rough equivalent of the Q branch in bond, the people who build all the gadgets. Some highlights:> The federation exists as an group, but it hasn't really been built yet.> So far, there is no prime directive> In the pilot episode, Archer is now an admiral after his Enterprise adventures, and assigns the new commander to Jupiter station, instructing him that the universe is a dangerous place and not everything is smiles and nice> The disk that intelligence controls is empty at first, and is where the 'zero g training' that other series have joked about take place> star fleet at this point is more military than social experiment. Good feelings don't take the place of talent yet> as the series progresses, the new Q branch under Zimmerman starts to work with and develop some of the tech which will become famous later, like torpedo's, phasers, tricorders, etc> every episode must be canon to the pre-Discovery timeline

>>217886203I bought passu.
>>217886283Not bad, but having a “half-off-limits” station is a bit derivative. Kind of feels like a high schooler’s writing. There’s a more clever way to approach that, probably. Also it’s very tempting to blow your load and just reveal everything up front, too tempting to keep that a secret past S2 or 3. But again not bad
>>217886307OK, maybe 'shortly' is the wrong term> wasn't sure of the timelines, but now checking see it was 200 years (?) between ENT and Zimmerman being assigned to jupiter station
>>217886362Now you know why things get retconned
>>217886283So timeline-wise ENT would the first series featuring humans exploring “what’s out there,” ends with the creation of the Federation (or planets, plural), and you want to follow it up with… a series boondoggled to a station around Jupiter in our own solar system
>>217885794Enterprise toys were done by Art Asylum but all previous toylines for the TNG/DS9/VOY era were done by Playmates. Each of those shows and movies had large toylines.
>>217886483
>>217886349I wasn't thinking of in terms of it being a secret forever; instead as something more related to the construction situation. So the station eventually has 6 of those discs. When the series starts as there are 2: the original one which is the existing cargo and repair station, and the new one, which is recently added but still empty. It being used for intelligence being, as the series starts, more a matter of convenience/opportunity, and available space.As the series goes in, it is envisioned that the rest of the disks are eventually added with whatever occupying the space; but with an empty one still remaining empty as a pretty useful training center for a lot of different stuff (or, in the off time, some sort of arena for some zero-g muti-player sport)But the location of Jupiter station is good because while it is still close enough to earth in terms of transport time; it's still far enough away to be it's 'own thing'; which doesn't always align with the more optimistic dreams about what star fleet would beIt would also be a good place to flesh out the back story on species such as the Andorians. So, what TNG did for the Kingons, and DS9 did for the Ferengi, there are entire layers of unexplored lore which can be found in a species which (at the founding of the federation), earth was already in regular contact with
>>217878597The Enterprise Crew are brokered to work out a treaty between a native people and their small home planet, but Picard discovers that The Federation plans to relocate the population onto a holodeck simulation and keep the planet for themselves. Picard finds this disgusting, and instead of appealing to the chain of command, he mutinies against the Federation where the Enterprise is hilariously taken out in short work by fifty Akira Class battlecruisers.

Why would Barclay have a crush on Troi instead of Mommy Crusher? Completely unrealistic for a character who's supposed to be literally me.
>>217886631You can't be attracted to someone who knows for a fact that you have a small penis, which is the case for Barclay since he's literally you.
>>217886503I had this one as a kid, I've still got it in a bin somewhere but the nacelles have been MIA for like 25 years at least
>>217886631Crusher has baggage: namely a dead husband, a complicated relationship with the captain responsible for getting him killed, and Wesley. Troi is a betazoid with a horndog mother.Gee hard choice here.
>>217886391It's not unreasonable. If Archer's Enterprise was (per memory alpha) 'united earth's first full-fledged starship'. And if, as the series ENT showed, earth will ill-prepared for what they will face out there in the universe every day, it's only natural that after ENT ends, United Earth would start moving on taking the lessons they've learned to improve their own equipment and training.And Jupiter Station is a good location to do it, for reasons I mentioned here. >>217886520

>>217887167I hate feddie colonists so much. They’re all so attached to their little interchangeable dirt farms.
>>217879314it's star trek world except people are not socialist utopians but actual people.Deal with realistic social issue like holodeck addiction, teenagers who dont wanna do anything except get fat, do drugs and have orgies in the holodeckmodern day mormons demand a harem of 15 year olds and when the denied they start their own colony and want star fleet to defend them because of the prime directiveandroids being used as sex slaves and robo-terrorists blow up a kindergargen to free androids from slavery
>>217878709Moe who?
>harvest your fields, tomorrow we’re killing you
>>217887219>little interchangeable dirt farms.The Federation was born of multiple cultures who endured world wars and genocides. (The Vulcans, in ENT, said as such.) As part of it I think an appreciation of your home, your land, the soil you fill with your hands and phase inverters and earth tone coveralls, matter. This life matters. Joy matters.
>>217887277And yet every colony is virtually identical
>>217887293the same sets at least
>>217887293But it isn't. You terra lform and till the soil of your own colony. Some other dude did it on the other colony. That's like saying, all humans are 99.98% alike, so you get to raise my children and I get to raise yours. Fuck off with that shit.
>>217887324Pointless. Go explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and new opportunities. you are literally describing the process which created Africans.
>>217887383Explorers are not colonizers. Once you've found a plot of land you want, it's yours to cultivate. It's yours to develop. These are two different skill trees. Neither is better than the other but they're different skill sets.
I like Conspiracy. It's not peak Trek by any means, but it's not even one of the worse episodes in S1
>>217887464Not at all, it's one of the best of S1.
>>217887464The special effects r nuts in that one. M the phasers were terrifying in s1
>>217887464When I was going through TNG for the first time, I assumed the parasites would return at some point in a later episode, given the ending. I thought they just completely forgot about them until I found out they reappeared in some DS9 novel. Anyways, good episode.
>>217887651Terry Matalas wanted to use them for PIC S3 but mistakenly thought killing the queen killed them all so he went with the changelings/Borg. Points for trying, but goddamnit man you almost had something amazing. >inb4 some autistic derf spergs out about how matalas was a fake fan and a coffee boyI know, but what could have been if his memory was 5% better...
>>217887713>neural parasites caused nu-TrekI could buy it

>>217885484>Did he talk about it so much off screen that it somehow became intrinsic to who he was as a person?The entire show is a dream in the head of someone who is butt hurt about white people. That's why the typewriter is there. Its telling you that none of this is real.

>>217885497I'm a big Excelsior Fan, so I like the E-B by default. The refit impulse engines seem too big, and i understand the added shapes to the lower hull because they had to show damage to the ship without digging into the original Excelsior model that the parts were added to. But I wish the Excelsior would have become the Enterprise-B without the changes.
>>217887746He tried. I will give him credit for that but nothing more

Why did Sisko try to prevent the Cardassians and Romulans from killing the founders?
Threadly reminder that Troi beat Data in chess. Not just a pretty face.
>>217890808God that was stupid.Data could take on a galactic champion grandmaster at stratagema; but he can't beat Troi in space chess. Like I get that they wanted to make Troi seem less worthless; but if she's that good at chess what the fuck is she doing prescribing space prozac?
>>217890865he couldn't take the grandmaster at stratagema
>>217890906No; but Data challenged Kolrami to the point that he enjoyed the game. In contrast Riker gets rolled over like a speed bump.
>>217890930data's advantage there is inhuman reflexes and stamina not thinking good, those dont transfer at all to chess which does actually require you to read an opponent. it makes sense troi would be good at those things, like poker.
Why didnt Starfleet give Lore to Maddox? He could tear him apart and make a thousand Datas
>>217890950> all to chess which does actually require you to read an opponent.Chess is literally just memorization at any skill level beyond novice.
>>217890865Troi is the captain’s autism translator
>>217890930I enjoyed Riker's flex there. He chose to die honorably.
>>217879884Implying it would take skill to make a better show than what these idiots have been churning out.
>>217890952That’s essentially what happens in S6
>>217891157Half the TNG episodes are zero budget fillers about entities hacking the computer or space orphans with interchangable technobabble dialogue that anyone could write in 5 minutes and they’re still more watchable than nutrek. Really makes you wonder why paramount doesn’t just make some nostalgia bait eps with an old camera and some d-list character actors just to see what happens
>>217891177What?
>>217891199Tawny Newsome is too busy trying to write herself into an episode with an A-plot featuring crude cussing and sex jokes and SAM breaking the fourth wall
