star trek sex with shran
>>219596128>>219595574My dad watches a sitcom from the 1970s every morning called Barney Miller. From what I’ve seen the show is surprisingly serialized for a show from that era. Characters break up and go through marriage drama. There are To Be Continued stingers and Previously On recaps. Again, it’s a shitty cop show I never even heard on until MeTV started syndicating it this year.
Watching through all of Trek with my normie brother. He actually enjoyed TOS a lot (even good parts of S3) but at the moment we are struggling to get through S1 of TNGI remember it being bad but its genuinely just terrible like good god what were they thinking.So far the best episode has been the 10101010 binary little dude ones but even that was just a 7/10. I know it gets better around S3 but damn
>>219596305That's what that link in the OP is for.
Peak timeless design.
>>219596448Ah, well I don't really watch youtube shorts
>>219596468The little one was replaced because it didn't look good on tiny sd televisions. I always liked it tho. Tech so sophisticated, it fits into a garage door opener.
>>219596417The one about the planet suffering from a "plague" entirely dependent on another planet that produces nothing but their "medicine" in exchange for perpetual serfdom is good too
>>219596128>Episode where Janeway figures out something her entire crew of specialists can'tWoke
>>219596592The resolution was peak retard though.
>>219596448you fucked up not using the link format that embeds
>>219596609Should be her mom
>I am Tosk.
>>219596305Janeway never looked more retarded than she did while reaching out to the monkey, as if she thought it would ever come right up to a totally strange human. The look on her face is so cringe I have to turn away.
>>219596468Type 1+2 are great because the emitter makes em futuristic. 3+4 devolved back into more traditional weapons with a visible nozzle. lame
>>219596766muzzle kek not nozzle
>>219596665Picard was a good stand-in for the government during the prescription opioid crisis.>What do you expect ME to do about this?>I guess I can make it harder for people to get their drugs and force them to go through horrible withdrawals >But they’ll thank me later.*beams away*
Any other famous future birthplaces?
>>219596592Ye I remember that one. We're are on the episode where Wesley goes to the academy. Think we're just gonna binge S1 and 2 as fast as possible to get it over with.
Mama Visitor's smile is so infectious.
>>219596851Voyager: the future birthplace of Harry Kim's underage wife.
>>219596592they pulled a Nicholas Locarno
>randomly remembering that episode of Voyager where Kes timetraveled backwards>Tom marries her, and they have a child>Harry marries their child>Both mom and her daughter are below 18 year old
>>219596801Unironically the real victims were the drug dealers. They literally have 0 industry. The entire planet will immediately break out into a ravenous scramble for resources, likely leaving millions dead. Thats assuming they at least have local agricultural production, if not billions will starve.
For me, it has always been about fancy gadets, cool spaceships and competent people. I couldn't give a shit about social commentary in ST.
>>219596999And Jerry Lee Lewis married his 13yo first cousin.So what?
>>219596999Harry definitely changed his wife’s diapers. He watched he grow up in real time. When do you think he noticed her sexually?
>>219596342>>219595574I'm probably the only heterosexual male under the age of 70 who has not only watched Dark Shadows (all 1200 fucking episodes of it) but actually considers it a favorite, and I have to say that show really doesn't get enough credit for serialized stories. Obviously being a soap opera a lot of that just came with the territory, but also being a weird sort of hybrid romance/supernatural horror/live-action-saturday-morning-cartoon it was often a way more ambitious fantastical adventure serial than really anything that had been seen on TV before, and the fact that they were trying to do all that stuff on a shoestring soap budget is pretty undeniably impressive despite its barely competent ramshackle presentation, which is half the fun of watching it anyway. Interestingly enough there seems to have been a lot of overlap between DS and Star Trek fandom back in the day.
>>219597065Imagine if everyone on Earth went through heroin withdrawals at the same time. Would anybody go to work? Could parents take care of their children? It was another example of the heroes ending up doing more harm than good.
>>219597094Social commentary is an essential ingredient but it's not the only one nor does it need to be the primary one all the time.
>>219597094For me it’s always been about space holocaust denial and space racism.
>>219597196Both societies would likely collapse into Mad Max.
>>219597211bajoran whiners ruined ds9
>>219597211Mirror univers fan, eh?
Does Neelix learn English or does he spend the whole journey talking through the universal translator?
tfw no bajoran gf to constantly guilt me into obedience with sob stories of surviving the labor camps
>>219597346Yes
>>219597422tfw no vulcan gf to control with drugs
>>219597346Depends on the comfyness factor of the universal translator. If he doesn't even notice that people around him aren't actually speaking Talaxian, he wouldn't. But if the UT has some sort of uncanny delay, or it just looks weird that the lips don't sync up with the words, he might give it a try.
>>219597310A whole fucking race of space Karens
>>219596999>>219597111Wait until this guy hears the Dominion makes 3 day olds fight
>>219597422>OK OK I WAS JUST ASKING QUESTIONS SORRY
>>219597641Jem'Hadar don't breed so it's different
>>219597547There probably is a delay in-universe. Like everything else on the show that’s instantaneous. Nobody would watch the show if there was this stalled AI diction of everything an alien says. It would be realistic but hurt the entertainment factor.
Neex crew checking in
>>219597713I ascribe to the idea the universal translator is largely telepathic
>>219597730learn English kek
>>219597713that make no fucking sense. in a universe where you can travel faster than light there is no fucking lag in your little Google translate implant
>>219597675>Drug-addicted slave soldiers are fine as long as nobody fucked to make them
>>219597094where is this image taken from?
>>219596851Sonia Gomez Barcelona, Earth, August 29, 2343
>>219596342Great theme song
>>219597777Earth had warp drive for over a hundred years before they had a universal translator. Breaking the speed of light is way easier than understanding Tholian clicking-noises, apparently.
>>219596851Sulu was born in San Francisco
>>219597760The Japanese soldier on Voy was wondering why everyone spoke Japanese. It has to be some kind of brainwave thing that works without little speakers or microphones.
>>219598269which would make it a very intrusive tech because it automatically exposes alien speakers to some kind of ranged field that works on their brains.
>>219598336the universal raper
>>219596851I much prefer the backstory of Kirk from TOS as a cautious frontiersman molded by his youth on Tarsus IV than the backstory from the movies onward of Kirk as a cocky everyman farmboy from middle america.
>>219598269it's most likely an implant of some kind (in DS9 they show it being inside the ear) that can both translate spoken language and also make it so that your own brain can fix your mouth, lips and do the air control necessary to speak in a different language without you actually having to know it. you go to say a word in your native language and that brain impulse is intercepted by the translator and it makes your body say that word in the desired language.
>>219598461Janeway mentioned that the device is inside the combadge, but there were several instances in which characters were left without their combadge and could still interact with the aliens.
>>219598570i mean there could be different types. having in the combadge just seems dumb though for what you just said. you can't talk to aliens unless you have a little doohickey with you at all times? that's not smart.
>>219598461That would explain why the sounds still matched the mouth movements when the holographic recording of Weyoun was switched to “native language mode” but then why did Sisko need Worf to translate when Gowron said “today is a good day to die” in Klingonese?
>>219597346In the season 2 episode 'Basics', some Kazon capture Voyager and strand the crew on a barren planet.The Voyager crew are stripped of their comm badges (thus their UT's) and can still talk to Neelix and Kes.Now try the stew!
>>219598628>why did Sisko need Worf to translate when Gowron said “today is a good day to die” in Klingonese?I dunno. maybe he said something that wasn't literally that. like an idiom or something.
>>219596128Quarks is now offering 20 dabo chips with every holosuite rental> come to quarks, quarks is fun> come right now, don't walk run!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_IaVMsCbf8
>>219597882looks like part of the evil-trek episodes from ENT season 4
>>219598643what stew?
>>219598643Aren’t the translators in their ears?
>>219598684Even in the 24th century you can't escape the scourge of ads
>>219597094Looks like it’s from Star Trek Legacy
>>219598461>>219598570>>219598626The real question is, why do you need transporter pads if you can beam site-to-site?
>>219598914It's easier and safer because you can skip the seeking and placement determination process.
>>219598914it goes through the pad either way.they just dont show it
>>219596128
>>219598914You die either way so there's no real benefit
>>219593349>ages 17+huh?
>>219599081You actually don’t according to Voyager. When the Kazon stole transporter technology, all they took was a module from the wall. Seska was able to beam those other Kazon into space with just that.
>MOSET: No. Actually, I was on Bajor at the time, during the Occupation. A sad chapter in Cardassian history. We had no business being there, but try telling that to the politicians. When I think of the resources that were squandered, the lives that were lost.Lmao at that disclaimer out of nowhereVoyager using a pozzed chatGPT model
>>219598737In VOY "The 37s," Janeway points to their commbadges when explaining the Univeral Translator.
>>219599277girls get it done
>>219596851Hope we can get a rover to lay a plaque at Utopia Planitia
>>219599326Maybe she’s retarded
>>219598737Ferengi's are, Starfleet aren't.
>>219599326>>219599382Like later on when they’re being hunted they’re not wearing them and can understand the Hirogen language
>>219599380aren't the fleet yards are in space tho? Dreadful Picard show has shown that something is going on down on Mars, but not all that much. The magic happens in space.
Getting hung up about the Universal Translator is the most useless discussion in all of Star Trek.
>>219597094Looks like that $700 cast aluminum lighted model.
Favorite Bolian eppy?
>>219599162Probably because the show is TV-MA. Which is very ironic since the average TNG episode had more maturity in its storytelling.
>>219599277VOY is known for its shitty little devices that do things you wouldn't expect from their appearance.Everything started out as a little thingamajig that grew into borg armor and what not.Sure, they could have shown Seska with a screwdriver dismantling the transporter pad for 30 minutes, but that would have been pretty boring.
>>219599457Utopia Planitia isn't in space, I assume they must have some buildings there. Also thinking about it, the shipyards must be in geostationary orbit to be named after a place on the ground which would make them crazy high up
>>219599326>Jeri Taylor feminist wank 'sode>canon
>>219599514The one that has light leaks along the rim of the saucer?
>>219599553I guess, but age rating for toys usually go by the physical product itself right? like if it has a lot of pieces or if there is molded on blood or something. Not the property itself. But I am no toy collector, so IDK.
>>219599621No. The one with the light leaks is the STMP refit model.
>>219599553Bad writing is more graphic than Picard and Riker exploding a guy’s head
>>219599629Usually mature rated toy sets are extremely complex like the 3600 piece Ent-D. It's not like any child is begging mom and dad for a Michael Burnam figure.
Gonna get some mileage out of this one
>>219599590Major components are manufactured on the surface, then tractored into orbit for assembly.
>>219598914The TNG drugs episode had them, during an emergency where they couldn't get a lock, connect the two transporter systems to get them across. Feels to me like something they should be doing all the time between ships. The idiots were too drug-addled to get on the pad so they directly beamed them out, there were six of them but they only got a lock on four before the ship exploded
>>219599749yah, thats what I said. But then again, my experience with any rating on toys is for legos and maybe airguns.
>>219599608The episode where B’Elanna couldn’t identify cow shit with a tricorder
>>219599830It didn't happen
>>219599820if you think about it, it being a station on the edge of known space or a space ship is an ephemeral distinction. They effectively the same things plot wise.
>>219599979I enjoyed the variety between episodes covering the ongoing situation re bajor/Cardassia and the more traditional weird alien of the week episodes.
>>219599470Wait until we start arguing about Tulaberries
>>219599608>expecting perfect in-universe continuity from the most ill-defined, fantastical gadgets in the franchise
>>219599884RIP druggie retards (????-2364)
>>219599608Taylor also wrote this one >>219599297 which is crazy foidbrained. >nooooooooo you can’t use the research of a nazi doctor you have to delete all that information and make all the victims deaths meaningless because… you just do OKAY?!
>>219600097ITS STILL REAL TO ME, DAMMIT!
>>219600158>Okay Takeshi, we'll let you go after torturing and murdering hundreds of Chinese prisoners>But we're keeping all your notes on the freezing and boiling points of human flesh in return
>>219600158Nobody tell Starfleet where human hypothermia treatment research came from…or who the namesake of the Oberth-Class was…
>>219600544starfleet immediately deletes ALL of their cryogenic research ASAP. Their ship coolant systems no longer work and they are groundborn, but they got their principles damn it!
>ancient west >ancient sailing ships >19th centuryIt grinds my gears so hard when they say this. It was only 500 years ago. We don’t refer to the 1500s as ancient.
>>219600765Only Lts Marla McGivers & Tom Paris have any real knowledge of Earth’s history. Everyone else is completely ignorant.
Now watching the Artemis 2 re-entry portion of its mission live on the NASA YouTube channel. It will be entering the Earth's atmosphere in just a couple of minutes from now.
>>219600923They'll be hitting the atmosphere at almost 25,000mph, creating a giant fireball while slowing down to about 14mph in only about 14 minutes.
>>219600971That is the most dangerous time for them, And it will be happening in about the next 5 minutes or so.
>>219601016There's a potential problem with the heat shield that could potely kill them all if it fails.
>>219600923Basedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPiy5eO7hpc
>>219601056*Possibly
>>219601016>That is the most dangerous time for themI thought for sure takeoff was the most dangerous time for them
>>219600765My brother
>>219600922I'd hate to be the character who doesn't know what the obvious 20th century thing is so they can have an exposition dump.
>>219601317Internal combustion? What's that!?
Greetings crewmate! When our shift is over would you like to join me in the holodeck for a cozy public domain story, or perhaps check out my collection of vintage 20th century royalty-free music or my replicated television that only shows programs from the Paramount Pictures library?
>>219601540Yes Trekpu, I'd love to
>>219599162>>219599629>>219599553>>219599749They have to put that on everything now so when some fetal alcohol ridden goblin eats a piece they have to die. Also yes, children don't give a fuck about toys anymore and the entire industry pivoted to adult collectors.My orders for Nacelle's first wave of Star Trek figures isn't supposed to ship until the end of the month so I'm back on my Second Life shit sneaking around rp sims so I can look at their spaceships.
Phew, another boring successful re-entry
>>219601807the 6 minute blackout was spooky.
>>219601540Better spend millions on insert songs so we can be cool like The Boys and Wednesday.
How does she draw that revolver?
>>219602382with a pencil I presume
I am TIRED
>>219601415Every time I see a Camaro I think of B’Elanna pronouncing it Cam-a-row and laugh
>>219602434>”With a fuckin’ pen-cil”
How was every single actor cast to play a Cardassian on DS9 so fucking kino?
>>219602695good point. I don't know the actor but whoever played Gul Evek was so great too
>>219599326>how DARE technology change or advance in Star Trek!! REEE FEMINISTS!glad your kind are going extinct

Anyone watching the Artemis landing?

Shatner is being interviewed on Artemis and going on a soliloquies.
>>219604157A 17 y/o mind could never conceive of building this.
>>219604260It comes with step by step instructions.
How come there were so many Bajorans off world if their planet was occupied before they had any kind of FTL travel?
Watching DS9 and it's interesting how Bajorans, Ferengi and Changelings are three different kinds of Space Jew.
>>219605203I think they simply escaped occupied Bajor
>>219605343I only dislike 2/3 space jews
>>219605377>we simply escaped broyeaaaah ‘kay
>>219605377How?
What a great payoff this was after three episodes.I also liked how the costume department made Hu'lanna look shrunken by starching up the seams of her shoulderpads to create a caved-in effect around her collarbones.
>>219605518They had this whole resistance movement thing if you recall. They could have stolen Cardassian ships.
>>219605203before they had ftl? Pretty sure they had that. they just werent particularly robust as a state.
>>219605203Bajorans left their star system earlier than most of the Alpha Quadrant, they just stagnated and got left behind by all the growing empires / federations.
>>219605950Because of their retarded poojeet caste system and their backwards religion.
>>219605550I thought it was weird they just casually mention that the phage has been cured by the Think Tank after dealing with them for so long.
>>219606571costanza could have been bullshitting too
>>219602681Jesus Christ left wing memes aren't just bad, they're painful.
>>219606705you just reminded me I saw a good Picard facepalm today
You ever feel like half the time Troi acts like Picard’s special ed teacher?
>>219607234troi just acts like a special ed teacher in general.
>>219607041Riker looks very goncerned
>>219607292He is!
>>219607742and so is Data
>>219602681>man makes a solid argument>women respond with violenceIDGI where's the joke? This is just sad.
>>219603497why are you here
>>219609132Because you'll give him (you)s.
>>219607292He looks more like he wants to fuck whatever he's looking at.
>>219609132Star Trek is a Hollywood fantasy like NASA. At the very least one of them has the courtesy to call itself science fiction.
Star Trek sex with cripples.
This scene was just too ambitious. All this exposition and I can't pay attention because I'm watching this dude try not to blink or move for five minutes
>>219596342Yeah, it all comes from the serialized film shorts from the 30s and 40s which were themselves inspired by the serially published fiction in the 19th century.
Alright guys. I'm watching DS9 S2 E23: "Crossover"
>>219605203They had FTL before most races in the galaxy. Bajoran civilization is 500,000 years old.They just decayed and stagnated

>4chan favors the bald.Was this foreshadowing Wojak, Pepe, and Bane?
When ships meet up, do you think there are pervert crewmembers in their quarters looking out at crew quarters on the other ship hoping to catch someone changing clothes or fresh out of the sonic shower, etc? Some officers' quarters have huge windows with seemingly little concern for privacy.Imagine being in the middle of a cheeky wank and seeing a shuttle fly past your room out the corner of your eye...>oh fuck, did they see?>shit I think Watts was due back about now, was that her?
>>219610386He's hammy and tryhard and awesome.
>>219610871I read a Rick Sternbach interview where he said these huge windows beneath the mess hall are Janeway's quarters, that's what got me thinking about this
I miss my wife
>>219610871Voyeurism just doesn’t have the same appeal when you can do whatever on the holodeck
>>219603669Yeah. They even made 5 more sequels, didn't they, you absolute moron?
>>219609380Idiot.
>>219609380K.
>>219611006>episode entirely from the perspective of a small cloaked ship/shuttle buzzing around Voyager, spying on the crew through the windows, trying to figure out their chain of command and shift rotation>getting roped up in interpretations of their relationships and interpersonal dramas>send someone in to do something or steal something, guiding them through the rooms and avoiding crew while watching from outsideRear Window in space, it feels like such a no-brainer.
>>219605550I liked both of the B'elannas.
I'm watching the Voyager episode "revulsion" and Janeway said that she'd relied on Tuvok for 9 years, I know they were friends beforehand but "Relativity" we're shown Voyager on what appears to be Janeway's first day on the job, right before leaving to the Badlands from DS9. Voyager was Janeway's first command, wasn't it? How did she and Tuvok even meet, anyway?
>>219612096>>219612196I know it's fun to imagine but you can't go to other planets. The Enterprise isn't real.
I asked chat gpt and it said deep space 9 is the closest to the cosmere by sanderson. Anyone that read sanderson and watches star trek can confirm?
>>219610386I started watching spenser for hire and avery brooks is pretty much carrying the show
>It takes place in the future, during a time when Cardassia and the Klingon Empire are at war.HOW THE FUCK DID THEY KNOWhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t02v9EUHs30
The very first broadcast episode of Star Trek, "The Man Trap" presents a story very much like The Twilight Zone, or The Outer Limits. It even has background music (not the title music) that is very similar to the background music played in the episodes of each of those earlier shows. Curious.
>>219612675Voyager was Janeway’s first time commanding a ship but not her first command overall. She had some other assignment where she was the senior officer but not a captain, either in rank or authority. She would’ve been a commander at most.
>>219612366They basically did that with the “cloaked alien scientists on the ship” episode where they inadvertently cause Janeway to go Super Saiyan
>>219599749>No Q>Instead Ro as exclusive figureIdiots. But if they ever make Voyager, it's insta buy.
>>219599965Best part is, with Dukat I don't know if he really said that, or is it just a meme.
>>219614985Same goes for Charlie X, and Where No Man Has Gone Before

>>219617159that was reading rainbow
Starting with one Ocampa you could nearly double Voyager's crew with competent adults by the time you reached the Alpha quadrant
>>219614622Because Cardassia had fought the Klingons before, disliked the Klingons, and knew Klingons well enough to know they'd find an excuse to fight someday.
>DA DA DADA DA BANAANANANAIT IS STARS AND STRIPES FOREVER SIR>BOOM dunununuh BOOM dunununhBY JOHN PHILIP SOUSA
>>219598232Why am I not surprised?
>>219614985well the ~pilot of what became the twilight zone did air on some desilu variety show thing. maybe theres common production shit.
>>219614985>>219616724>>219618764Writers in the 60s were just all on drugs thinking of stuff like "Dude, what if a kid had super powers?!"

>>219596851
>>219610212The solar sailboat was basically lost technology
>>219620677that was never FTL (on its own)
>>219620968Yeah, I don't get what Sisco was trying to prove in that episode. It was obvious he's not getting anywhere far in that crappy sail boat, and only got to Cardassia Prime by pure fuckin lack thanks to some space anomaly. And yet he's acting like "omg, look at those briliant bajorans and their shitty ass sail boat, that could break apart any moment now!".
>>219620999his goal was the edge of the bajoran system in a weekish which is still very impressive. pointless but impressive.
>>219606595That's sad to see an entire people wiped out like that then.
>>219620999He proved that Bajorans fired the first shot in the occupation. Kamakazing into Cardassia prime hundreds of years ago
>>219618865Kids are difficult to work with and expensive. I’m surprised TOS was allowed so many episodes involving children.
>>219622163Roddenberry was berrying his rodden 'em
>>219622163I feel like TNG has even more. It’s like every other episode. It was probably cheaper before woke
>>219596128Janeway was supposed to have a romance with Chakotay. The writers were building up to it over multiple seasons. This episode was supposed to be the start of it.Then Janeway actress backed out and said she didn't like the storyline. She refused to act it out and said she shouldn't sleep with her crew. So Chakotay was left with nothing to do. Multiple episodes of buildup all for nothing.
lol what a loser
>>219622196>Picard hates kids>Constantly has kids running around his ship
>erm actually we had to use a fusion generator to project a holographic rock in front of a window looking out instead of just using cameras because… we just did okay?!
>>219622240i dont think thats true.
>>219622297>we can’t beam them out because the teleporter would scare them! just beam down a cloud of anesthesine gas and make them all unconscious
>>219622163the adult guest stars on TOS made more per episode than the regular cast. i doubt that child actors in the 60s were more expensive, especially since gene pinching pennies is the only reason the series worked.
>>219620999He's just nerding out. There's no deeper motivation imo.
>>219608204>women
>>219622240Good. He had better chemistry with that borg lesbian anyway
>>219622782I think I'd be an embarrassment to my cave dwelling ancestors and that makes me sad.
>>219622782The conclusion of this episode is weird like. What criteria is he using to not let them be part of the galactic community from now on? They should’ve been pissed. >haha no you you guys have to live meaningless lives as fuel for progress all the while knowing you will never see the wonder and splendor i have let you see again in your lifetimes.
>>219622945Yeah I like that episode but I felt the same way about the outcome.
DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN
>>219622927>that borg lesbian anywayI met some lez trek fans and they explained the J7 thing and I can see in some of the eps what they mean, it's perfectly done to get past the studio
>>219623080I wish they had the balls to say "bitch".
>>219623132trek is above such crass language.
>>219623132that would be much worse in every way
>>219623132Nah, "dog" is more insulting than "bitch".
>>219623235>>219623132Nah they say it in Academy
>>219623257thats not trek
>>219623320The sheer fucking hubris...
>>219623235Sheer Fuckin Hubris, if you ask me.
>>219622338The writers and the actress admitted it. She said that it felt wrong to be in a relationship with her first officer and it would set a bad example for women watching the show.
>>219623484
>>219623510>women watching the show
>>219623563Lots of women watched Star Trek before the producers said "we want the women audience" and then alienated them by trying too hard
>>219623484>>219623534I don't normally throw the term "reddit" around but nutrek dialogue is literally straight out of reddit
>>219623534I can't believe Data said that.
>>219623235Not anymore!
>>219622133Imagine swallowing that
>>219624024How wide is bros throat?
>>219614985A lot of TOS has Twilight Zone/Outer Limits vibes, to say nothing of Forbidden Planet. It was a creative show but it didn't form in a vacuum. The pulpy vibes are why it's my favorite Star Trek show, even.
>>219596128>You will never be ordered to the captain's quarters for a booty callGod I wish I were Chakotay
>>219622133>undeclaredNon-trinary...
>>219623484I remember when I was 12.
>>219623593It's the men they alienated not the women. The "lots of women" remained as the viewership
>>219624627*lots of women (male)
>>219624627Women liked Star Trek for the same reason men did: to see dashing captains solve problems. It's why they cast Shatner and Frakes instead of ugly fat dudes who would have done the job just as well. Star Trek was never going to have a 50% female audience. I don't see Hallmark and Lifetime execs fretting about male viewership.
it always bothered me that the "jazz" riker's into is just muzak.
>>219624876You know I always thought it was a Clinton thing but now that I think of it Riker was into jazz well before 1992
>>219624876>>219624999Frakes himself is a legitimate jazz nerd.
>>219623495>A Bajoran child’s ration spoon.>Cheap metal. Bent handle. The kind issued in the camps.>The room stared.>Dukat looked at it almost fondly.>“You see this? This is what they remember. A spoon. A line for food. A hard day’s work. They hold this up and call it oppression.”>He picked it up between two fingers.>“But they never mention that before us, there was no spoon.”
>>219624771>>219624817Look up Trek tubers and podcasters that are women and you'll quickly notice almost all of them love Kurtzman Trek. They think it's a huge improvement over the classic era. Trek may have always been political but it's also been very male-leaning. The erasure of that aspect has been a staple of the Kurtzman era. Him and his team have been very open and proud about that. And women love it too. Unfortunately for them there's just not enough of them to make it financially sustainable.
>>219625053well then he should've encouraged them to put some REAL jazz on the show instead of that chuck mangione bullshit
>>219625243>The erasure of that aspect has been a staple of the Kurtzman eraNot just the Kurtzman era, Star Trek 09 was designed with the intent to grab a female audience. And then casting Benedict Cumberbatch as Khan of all people only further confirms that. The amount of gay Star Trek fanart sky rocketed thanks to the JJ movies
On behalf of nutrek I offer peace, you say what?
>>219625712Death.
>>219625600That was designed as a four-quadrant movie with a male lean. Think Bayformers, Fast and the Furious, Snyderverse, etc. But it still had too many "problematically" male elements. Hence the Into Darkness controversy. It certainly wouldn't fly with today's even more radicalized female demographic.
>>219625331He plays Misty in Future Imperfect
>>219625712
>>219627053kek that switch from film to digital
>>219603515>>219608204Most of this guy's comics end with the women beating up the straw chud.
This is a pretty based episode.
Riker's a Pitt chad?
>>219627318looks like he directed a bunch of librarian episodes
>>219627278for me, kirk buying a hooker for scotty is why he's the best captain.

>>219623484>>219623534Lowbrow trash
>>219625712I give all trek a watch but I think it's getting mogged by other science fiction these days
>>219628159That's writers in [current year] for ya
It was a "monkey tricks" hazard
They really were ahead of their times.
>>219623534Remember in Generations when Data said "oh shit." ? The whole theatre must've been HOWLING in Laughter.https://youtu.be/Vrm8TV7K4zo

>>219627940This is canon as far as I'm concerned
>>219629335Gene was the original "I did it all for the nookie" male feminist.
