/c/TenForward: 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. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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.

M'Benga does have a great smile.

[–] teft@lemmy.world 29 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Dr Great Smile is my favorite Star Trek character.

Dr. Phlox is my absolute favorite Star Trek character, he has just such a great demeanor, like, you could so easily be friends with him.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 9 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Same here .... I'm currently on season 2 with Enterprise ... first time watching the series and I'm thoroughly enjoying it and yes Phlox is a definite favourite ... just an unassuming intelligent, bright, positive character ... even if he steals a celery stick from your plate.

I also love watching scenes where he is like a mad scientist at times ... he spills some mystery fluid on his clothing in the medical bay and Archer asks him if he safe and if the material is poisonous or dangerous - Phlox wipes up some of the goo with his finger and tastes it and says 'I don't think so'.

Yeah Julian's such a cutie. At least later in the show; he's a little gross in the early seasons but Alexander Siddig is damn handsome always though.

[–] GraniteM@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I think he would have made a really good Reed Richards.

[–] zaphodb2002@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 months ago

Oh yeah that's a great cast

[–] Thebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Why does he look like his face knows he had one drink too many but he hasn't recognized it yet

[–] singletona@lemmy.world 28 points 11 months ago (4 children)

Shran is my second favorite Jeffrey Combs's role.

Agamus is my first.

[–] zaphodb2002@sh.itjust.works 16 points 11 months ago

Brunt, FCA.

[–] InverseParallax@lemmy.world 16 points 11 months ago (1 children)

They let him completely off the chain for Shran.

Need more of that.

[–] singletona@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

Plus whoever puppeted the antenna understood the assignment on using them to emote.

'I don't drink'

antenna make this arms wide 'I'm done with this shit' pose

[–] sirblastalot@ttrpg.network 11 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I want to see a Trek episode shot like one of those Eddie Murphy films where he plays all the characters, using Jeffrey Combs

[–] Anti_Iridium@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Agamus is my first.

The fact that he was absent from season 5 was very unfortunate to me.

[–] Nomecks@lemmy.ca 15 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Where's our Jeffrey Combs?

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 13 points 11 months ago

It's easier to sort out by who isn't Jeffery Combs

[–] jmcs@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 11 months ago (1 children)

So SNW is Enterprise but actual Star Trek and not "Bush's America in Space - now with 100% more war crimes"?

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

so enterprise is star wars meets star trek

[–] FlatFootFox@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago

“Lisa Simpson” got me. Good job.

[–] Ep1cFac3pa1m@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Wasn’t Hemmer an Aenar, not an Andorian?

[–] teft@lemmy.world 31 points 11 months ago

All Aenar are Andorians but not all Andorians are Aenar.

[–] negativenull@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

The Aenar were a subspecies of Andorians

[–] UpperBroccoli@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 11 months ago

Damn I love the cast of that show.

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

Archer and Pike are not the same. They didn’t captain the same ship.

[–] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Not the same ship just both are the first enterprise. Enterprises? Of their respective ship’s class if I’m not mistaken.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee -2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (2 children)

SNW is too robotic compared to enterprise, nutrek cant compare.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 2 points 11 months ago

Really? They have loads of silly episodes
