I don’t watch it anymore, but its recaps and posts still seem to garner the most activity with comments and such, so seems like its got a big fan base still.

I see The Walking Dead as a victim of its own success. You either die a cool zombie show, or you live long enough to see yourself become an old, tired, washed up sorta zombie show.
Mock the show as much as you want. I mean I do a lot. But bloody hell man was that premiere something. Its still one of the best pilots, the Lost pilot is very comparable. After that, something like Clear or Here Not Here would probably come after. The latter was sadly poorly timed as it was in the middle of the…
Sasha is one of Rick’s crew that’s lined up in front of Negan in that series finale when he’s first introduced and says he’s going to pick one of them at random and kill them.
Also reboot of Gene Roddenberry’s Andromeda just with less Sorbo as a producer
I’m watching Enterprise for the first time, into S4. I don’t know what “redeemed over time” means, but it’s definitely the worst of the live action series. Not that it’s bad, but it’s unremittingly beige. In a little over three seasons, there is one standout episode that I would rank with the best of all time, a few…
They’ve never really talked about how rare antimatter is or how it’s produced in-universe. When Voyager ran out of gas and had to land on the planet with the sentient duplicator goop, the fuel shortage was entirely on the “matter” side of the equation.
If most of the dilithium is gone, why do people still have anti-matter, except for weapons. Why would they still build anti-matter powered warp cores?
*crosses fingers for Pah’ Wraith Dukat*
I suppose it also depends on how much of the Federation is left. The guy in the first episode didn’t know, and it could well be that the Federation is in better shape around its core worlds where it’s denser and communication is easier.
Imagine someone being transported to our present moment and their first impulse is:
I want a BSG-style total reboot of B5. The original series did almost too good of a job of resolving itself, to the point that the various sequel attempts had less room to tell effective stories and suffered from it.
“Andromeda” wasn’t based on a Trek script. “Andromeda” was a retooling of notes from old Gene Roddenberry projects including “Genesis II” and, apparently, “Strange New World” (according to ye olde Wikipœdia).
This entire era of post-prestige television basically seems like a Michael Bay movie — lots of nice looking scenes but terrible storytelling — stretched out for months. Let’s just admit we’re all hate-watching this shit. Why the hell did AV Club give this episode a B? It’s a D at best.
Ugh, I really didn’t like this premiere. Its going with the cliched trope of ‘heroic character attempts to revive long-dead utopia’ and the entire hour was meandering all over the place. Seemed more like Star Wars than Trek.
As a Latinx person, I kind of wasn’t crazy about it when I first heard it, mostly because of it’s awkwardness. But whatever, I got over it, and understand why it’s needed. Although once I heard Neal Brennan pronounce it as “La-Tinks”, I can’t read it any other way now.
So our hero just straight up murdered a bunch of space mall cops who were just doing their jobs. I mean I guess we’re supposed to think of them as space gangsters and that makes it alright, but I still think it’s a questionable choice for an episode that wants us to get all weepy over Michael’s commitments to the…
Saru was a great character until they literally removed his DEFINING AND ONLY INTERESTING CHARACTER TRAIT!
No production of Star Trek has ever so much as been aware of the existence of Babylon 5, which is probably the funniest thing about the constant charge from its fans that Star Trek is its mutual rival.
He was in Supergirl just a few seasons ago, though they killed him off. They’d already written Dean Cain out by then too.
