Better than Firefly. It got more than 14 episodes.

Fortunately, I got the DVDs when they were still affordable.

The show already shifted from the Peacekeepers to the Scarrans as the big bads. There was absolutely no question in my mind that the Scarrans were far worse than the Peacekeepers. The Peacekeepers were racist, sure, but nothing like the Scarrans.

Actually, I think Wilkins made it all the way to S3 and simply reviewed a condensed S4 and the PKWars. But I could be wrong. Been a while since I read them.

Eh. Farscape is way more psychologically intense than GotG ever hoped of being.

Farscape is certainly not perfect. But it’s almost always entertaining, at the very least.

Apparently I still have a Tagged profile? And I only used that briefly in like, 9th grade, so...15 years ago? 

Either bar means I’m living in Star Trek’s future. Whether I would prefer Quark’s or Ten Forward would really depend on how I felt about Cardassians and the Dominion.

Eh. On one hand, I’ll agree that the early seasons with Diane were possibly higher quality, because the show was less sitcom-y then. On the other hand, I found Diane completely insufferable and struggled through S2-5 because of how immensely I disliked her. Once she left the show, I enjoyed my viewing experience a lot

Yes! I was just coming to comment on this! I remember I was making a meal for somebody, and I was making potato salad. I was going to substitute the mayo for plain yogurt, but then someone else joined the dinner party who was lactose-intolerant, so I opted to make homemade mayo because at least it would be less vile

Also, Reddit is a haven for shitheads and asswits.

Fair enough.

But most of our governments, excepting a few Muslim nations, don’t base their government and all of their laws on those beliefs. Despite some people insisting that the United States is a “Christian” nation, we are largely governed by secular laws. So it’s not really a 1:1 comparison.

Why would this sort of animation still be a thing 400 years in the future? This was so irritating to me I couldn’t be bothered to watch the final couple of minutes.

I am constantly baffled by the stupidity of the alien races the Union encounters, but this may be the stupidest. This planet just receives visitors from unknown worlds, capable of traveling among the stars, boasting powers we can’t even imagine, and the first thing the chancellor does is decide to imprison two of the

This was much better than the last few episodes. This season really didn’t start off very strong in my opinion (which is really unacceptable when you only have a 14-episode order), but this episode was more like it. I hope the rest of the season is more like this and less like “Home.”

Yes, some of the practical technology depicted in TOS is less advanced than modern technology, because TOS was made in the sixties. But you can’t talk about Star Trek technology without talking about their so-called magic devices. What you call the real stuff is all considered pretty minor in TOS’ day.

For the record,

Except for a few things to make all the space trekking work, we’re more technologically advanced than TOS.

Damn straight.

Sure, but the Romulans and Cardassians both represent militaristic, dictatorial empires with an eye on conquest and domination. The Federation is supposed to reject those ideals. Starfleet is supposed to be above such things.
