Much as I don’t care for seasons 1 and 2, the show does provide some interesting bits of history that fill in the gaps from the late 24th century. Primarily, the destruction of Romulus introduced in the Kelvin timeline is confirmed (beyond just Spock saying so) to still occur in the main. The android ban could use some more exploration.

Sure, but I can’t get past the tedious plot, the “oh by the way” style exposition, and so much of the dialog is so unnatural and bad it gave me a headache.

But I do love Shaw! I’d be happy for a series that focused on him–oops, nm.

I know, the 10 episode seasons really hamper the writers’ ability to explore and “show not tell” what’s going on. As for Shaw, I should think it’d be possible to utilize a form of ECH (Emergency Command Hologram) like the Doctor. Not that we’re gonna get a Legacy show anyway, sadly.

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.
