Don’t get me started on Kirk and Picard. If they had been in command of Voyager, Kirk would have gotten everyone killed in the first year, and Picard would left the Ocampa to die and let the Kazon have the Caretaker’s Array. Whereas Sisko would have stolen the Sikarians’ transporter device and gotten the crew home in

Yeah...I mean, it’s not like Janeway traveled back in time, destroyed the Borg, and erased her future self from existence to save her crew and get them home or anything.

Worst captain, eh? That’s quite the take. 

On the one hand, I love the idea of this memorial. You think Lonzak wasn’t secretly crushing on Arachnia, Queen of the Spider-People? Think again. Way to honor a great, inspiring captain (and a crackerjack actress).

I would say the big difference here is that Kylo has been offered redemption since the first scene in TFA. Hell, even Snoke kinda thought he wasn’t evil enough and told him to try harder.

Wasn't it Rian who turned it into Hunger Games given that the "romancy" stuff between Rey and Ren wasn't really a thing in TFA?

I liked the romantic tension between her and Finn so much more because it’s earnest, based on mutual respect and admiration and grew organically. Their rapport is my favorite thing about Force Awakens, in fact.

I guess we’ll see. I interpreted those not as sexual interest so much as empathy and pity.

I am with you on this. I was like “”oh I kinda know about these characters, cause Batman and Crisis on Infinite Earths....” then I watched and I wa slike “ WAIT, THESE ARE NOT THEM! WHERE”S THE PATHOS? THE BROODING? THE ANGST?
Then I watched and fell in love with who these characters are in TT. Hell I was fond of the

I always find it bizarre when people talk about how serious and adult the old Teen Titans cartoon was, because when it was new, a lot of fans hated it for being so goofy and kid-friendly compared to the DC Animated Universe. It started out being mostly comedy and action and only gradually got deeper into the character

Uuuuuugh... I will watch this. I’ll probably enjoy this. But it will take me a long time to accept that the attitude that TTG has towards fans who like the original show better is anything other than smug. Like, I’m not a bitter guy. I can live and let live. But TTG is explicitly a version of the original TT cartoon.

I don’t trust those two guys preparing a romantic dinner for strays in the alley.  What’s their motivation?

I like the show but the problem it’s their season arcs are dystopian adjacent.

With no hottie hologram...

Ugh HOW DO Y’ALL KEEP GETTING SUCH GREAT INTERVIEWS WITH THESE GUYS

Seems like a decent chance that this isn’t the “proper” future, but an alternate timeline created by Discovery’s time travel. Not unlike “Yesterday’s Enterprise.”

I'm actually quite angry that they have taken this direction. Such a sad end to a once great franchise.

This kind of confirms my worst fears about the direction of the show. One consistent thread throughout each series is that no matter our present shortcomings, we aren’t doomed to oblivion; we make it out of our infancy and create a better world.

This shows that dream is doomed to failure. The Federation collapses into

So it’s Gene Roddenberry’s ‘Andromeda’ now.... Jesus Christ....
