/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. 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.

I'm bummed but i understand.

The main characters aren't really the lower deckers anymore.

I wish they continued to follow them in a different show, though, because there were definitely more stories to be told with everyone.

"Middle Decks" ?

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 6 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I mean, they were all junior officers being prepped for leadership roles, so it'd just be a regular Star Trek setup

Star Trek: The Animated Series: The Next Generation

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

More likely: "Bridge Crew"

[–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 6 points 14 hours ago

So "Every Star Trek Ever"?

[–] loomy@lemy.lol 1 points 11 hours ago

I know who that is

[–] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 15 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

I really hope we get to see more Prodigy, watching Wesley actually do all the Traveller stuff was pretty cool

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 7 points 21 hours ago

Plus the connection back to Gary Seven using his office layout.

Why does that face in panel 2 look so... Fake?

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 14 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago)

I noticed that, too. I think it's just the lighting, color balance (it's got a heavy yellow tint), and the sharp focus only on Briones's face that's making it look off. Pretty sure it looked the same in the episode.

Or maybe Briones wasn't available to shoot that scene and they filmed it with a body double and added her face on in post? I don't think I've read that, but it wouldn't be unheard of.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 1 points 13 hours ago

She is an android, after all.

(Just paying this forward from the last time I made this mistake and someone had to correct me)

Wil Wheaton.

Lol, I was gonna say:

If you're Worf, "Whil Whheaton" is also acceptable.

[–] Karjalan@lemmy.world 4 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

IIRC it was less cancelled and more come to it's natural conclusion. Like it wasn't the network saying "get outta here", but the creators saying it had run it's course.

[–] beastlykings@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 hour ago

That's better I suppose 🤔

[–] galoisghost@aussie.zone 4 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

Ironically they basically cancelled Picard after season 2 too.

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 1 points 14 hours ago

And Prodigy.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 5 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

then what was season 3 imho the closest it ever got to Star Trek?

[–] galoisghost@aussie.zone 5 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed season 3 but it was basically a different show.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 11 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

yeah but it kinda felt like that every season was a different show all together.

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago

So much so, that everyone in Season 3 basically forgot that Season 2 ... happened at all.

[–] Thebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.world 14 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

It seems like each additional season was an attempt at a massive course correction which is how S3 became massive fan service.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 2 points 13 hours ago

It was worth it just to get the band back together one last time.
