Why did they cancel Lower Decks?

It's all fucking geezers fault. If you dumb fucks would watch the most based Star Trek in existence we would have season 7 by now, as planned.

Mike McMahan is a genius and he will be remembered as one of the greatest creators of his times.

Also Tawny a cute.

Lower Decks takes a shit on verisimilitude. Every episode has at least one, if not several, moments where the "is this really happening in the same universe" feeling is shattered. Characters do not act like they would have if they were in any of the other series. Events do not occur like they might have in the other series. The rules, even the ones that can be broken, just don't work the same way as they worked in the other series. Lower Decks fundamentally lacks verisimilitude, where TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY, and ENT did not. It's far more than just plot holes or fixing them, continuity or the lack of it, references, callbacks, cameos, and memberberries. It is the fundamental feeling of "are all of these different stories happening in the same universe? And does that universe feel like it could be real with real people in it?" The answer to those questions with Classic Trek is yes. The answer to those questions with nuTrek, including LD, is no. Classic Trek characters don't engage in orgies, or laugh at the gruesome deaths of friends as a punchline, they shouldn't be aware of events that were secret or classified just because the audience knows about them. They shouldn't be fanboying over Star Trek lore like they've seen the shows, or acting in unprofessional ways that would get them reprimanded or thrown out if they were on any other show. LD does all of these things and more

it is one thing to write a deliberate spoof and parody of Trek in which the audience is in on the joke and can laugh at Trek from the outside. But for those stories to actually believably exist in the same universe as the rest of Trek, the characters inside that same universe cannot be laughing at Trek in the same way the audience is from the outside. And Lower Decks breaks this immersion.It should have been marketed from the start as a totally separate and self-contained good natured lampooning of Trek for the fans, not treated like it actually exists alongside the rest of Trek

>Get to know each other? Okay, here's the brief history of Kenneth Dalby. We lived on the Bajoran frontier. It was a hard life. I coped by getting into a lot of trouble. I was angry at everybody and everything, till a woman came along and taught me about love. For a while, I wasn't angry any more. Three Cardassians raped her and smashed her skull. I joined the Maquis and tried to slaughter as many of them as I could find. How about you? Any family?

What do you think actually happened? I think he walked in on his crush in a Cardassian gangbang and violently murdered her.
>>
>>219975161
Not only does it date the show badly, but also breaks the verisimilitude that >>219975103 is talking about, because instead of feeling like it exists in the future world of Star Trek, it feels like it exists in our world with a Star Trek aesthetic thrown over top of it. It further reinforces my belief that modern writers can't write genre stories beyond urban fantasy, hence why even sci-fi is written as urban fantasy despite that being wholly inappropriate for a show with the setting of Star Trek.
>>
>>219975419

Why do the episodes feel longer than 44 minutes?
>>
>>219975864
Voyager always feels very bottle-y even for a Trek series. Seeing the same set of 4-5 Intrepid corridor sets over and over again kind of fucks with your perception of time if you watch more than a couple of episodes in a row.

Absolutely. Cardassians don’t rape. It’s just not in their nature. So obviously this guy freaked out over consensual sex (notice he doesn’t call her anything besides “a woman who taught me love”, meaning she probably didn’t even know he existed)

Modern writers are not nearly as clever as they think they are. Even classic Star Trek was able to poke fun at its ridiculous stories. But it was done in a tongue in cheek way that didn’t break immersion. LD could have worked if the writers were as clever as early Futurama. And it doesn’t help that Hollywood blacklisted people who looked like Futurama writers from every writers room.

I'm going through season three now. And it feels like nibbling around the moldy parts of a piece of bread. There are some good episodes, and some really rotten ones. Sad to watch a show fall so far from the writing of season one. It feels like a lot of scripts were approved that shouldn't have been because everyone knew they were getting canceled.

I thought it was a great little revelation that explains why McCoy is such a cynical prick all the time and particularly gets his panties in a twist when people take stupid risks and don't respect life and death shit. Good character shit.

I liked Sybok, the actor, and his schtick, but the 'oh here's that brother I never mentioned before because reasons' rubbed me the wrong way obviously. And by the way Anakin also built 3PO. Totally unnecessary. Sybok could have just been some random Vulcan dude, or maybe someone Spock had truck with before in his extensive past and it would have been fine. In a vast galaxy, you don't need every single person related to everyone else. It just shrinks the world you're building and unnecessary complicates the character history, generates logical holes, etc.

Imagine if Khan were Kirk's father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate. It doesn't add anything. Shit like that can work, but you don't need it for everything.

Watching Berman Trek back to back with your average Netflix or Amazon Prime show will make you appreciate the acting and storytelling so much more. One episode of TNG or DS9 has more plot momentum and better character interactions than an 8 hour streaming season.

I don't get the outrage over either. The one consistent thing about Spock is he never, never talks about his family unless he has no other choice. Everyone assumed his family was dead on TOS until they came to visit. This was how it was in TOS, the movies, and Disco. Why the outrage? People act like Spock having a sister gave him cooties or some shit.

It's not THAT any given family member exists, it's HOW their addition adds to the character and HOW it's done.

He can have a half-brother sure, but 'oh by the way Sybok' was a pretty hamfisted intro and obviously a one-shot for that movie that he'll never talk about again.

Burnham was total bullshit because it was a bald-faced and failed attempt to give NuTrek unearned cred on par with Rey and Han Solo's relationship after two seconds, whatever that shit was supposed to be. No sale.

When you think about it, the idea that there are deviant Vulcan's trying the do the emotion shit is actually interesting and could have been expanded on with Sybok, but the half-brother stuff actually makes it all too neat and undermines exploration of it.

Instead of, 'There are these deviant emotionfags on Vulcan we don't like to talk about', it's basically just 'my retarded Ruprecht half-brother that my family keeps in the attic and is ashamed of':

Disco shat on Burnham like it was going out of style. This girl was not allowed to be happy until sometime in late season 3.

You know, maybe I could understand the enterprise having families on it throughout season 1, they thought it would just be a diplomatic cruiser, but by season 2 or 3 they are regularly getting into life or death situations like 8 times a year (each season is supposed to be like 1 year right? and each season is like 24 episodes and I would say at least 8 of them have the enterprise going into a deadly situation). Seems really irresponsible innit? patrolling the romulan boarder with something that has a floating kindergarten on board.

No, Mary has to be perfect, loved, and shat on unjustly. Go watch the show and get back to me on that shit.

I answered you in the other thread. Humans do not fear danger or death. They evolved beyond it. It’s why Picard tries to kill the entire crew with a self destruct without consulting anyone. It’s why Janeway actually did it once.

All it would take to save NuTrek is simply mandate that any writer or showrunner actually read books. Watching the dialogue of these new shows, I'm not convinced a single one of these writers has read a book since high school.

I think he's actually a rogue Cytherian. That was the race that Barclay sent the Enterprise to when he had gigabrainpower. Same method of contact too. Both looked for ways to bring people to them rather than go out and explore themselves.

The actress wasn't the problem. They had no clue what they were doing with the character.

Trill seem pretty backwards for exiling people just because they wanna indulge in some reassociation.
>>
couple 'o Trill in a Cabin somewhere reassociating all the heckin' time.

Reassociation prohibition is such a primitive stance. Let people love who they want to love as long as they are consenting adults.

Eddington was right. About everything. He was also incredibly noble sacrificing himself for his ideals. Sisko at one point basically even admitted Eddington was right and never betrayed his ideals but you have to read behind the lines about why Sisko was so hell bent about catching Eddington: it was because Eddington set up Cassidy Yates to go to prison specifically because she was Sisko's lover. That pissed Sisko off and from then on he had zero mercy for the Maquis and especially none for Eddington. But like Sisko later admits, Eddington was the most loyal man he ever knew. Eddington didn't betray his uniform, Sisko did and he knew it. You can see Sisko's moral spiral towards despot towards the end of the series.

Also, mocking someone who was widowed at Wolf 359 by saying he's worse than the Borg was a dumb move that guaranteed he made an enemy for life.

Sisko was irrational for making the hunt for Eddington so personal, but Eddington basically brought upon himself IMO.
