Watch Jessie Gender instead

Exactly, actually alien aliens have been pretty rare in Trek. Usually they’re stand ins for some human culture or ideology. Even the horta had pretty familiar and understandable motivations. These gorn are pequenino tier alienness.

Xenomorphs with a whole ass technological civilization are another level of scary

Hysperia operates its technology and society with a sort of ren faire aesthetic, calling the fusion reactor a dragonsbreath flame for example. They know what’s really going on though, it’s just a very elaborate cosplay.

The big one is Chapel and Spock. She goes straight from pursuing him to leaving him without much of any actual relationship in between. Pelia doesn’t get to do much as the chief engineer, and Ortegas barely gets any screen time at all.

I don’t understand this idea that fewer episodes is better. Basically my only complaint about SNW season 2 is how rushed it felt.

How many people are actually seeing the names of your home machines?

Elon Musk naming shit after Culture ships while being Joiler Veppers.

I saw it as more a devkit than an actual product in and of itself.

Sam Kirk appears on screen already dead and played by Shatner in TOS s01e29 Operation–Annihilate.

A federation C-SPAN would have to be done really carefully to not be Berman’d.

I bet Professor Gill had a white statue pfp on the starfleet message boards

Those people don’t deserve representation.

I can hardly imagine a less appealing piece of Star Trek media than a Section 31 movie

To sing does not dishonor a Klingon, but to be forced to sing by something the Federation set off, that dishonors a Klingon.

You could just watch the shows you don’t want to be spoiled on.

The Irresponsible Captain Tylor. Nobody, neither the other characters or the viewers, can tell whether he’s a genius or a moron, but it works for him.

The Bell Riots and the Irish reunification both happened in 2024 according to DS9 and TNG respectively. How do those slot in after the Eugenics Wars and WW3? The San Francisco in “Past Tense” doesn’t look like it’s in the Post Atomic Horror.
