This was excellent television, a life lesson, dramatic conflict, demonstration of how professional adults deal with issues, a resolution… A real role model show
Still tugs on the heartstrings

And a complete modern day fantasy of how we would like to imagine ourselves and fail to achieve such high morals because we instead act like the frightened cavemen we are more closely associated to in our current time.

It’s not a fantasy. You can conduct yourself to the standard. Just requires you to be reflective of your own actions. We can all do it.

Guys, if I wanted to start watching Star Trek, where do I start?
koorool@feddit.de 1 year ago
I watched Star Trek: The New Generation first, then Deep Space 9, then started Voyager, but it wasn’t as good IMHO.
Now watching select episodes from The Original Series, select episodes from Voyager, Strange New Worlds and Lower Decks.

Oh so we just gonna act like Enterprise wasn’t a thing now huh?

Very helpful to suggest a new watcher to cherry pick from all the shows.
If you want to do it chronologically, start with TOS, TAS and their movies.
If you don’t care for the old style of acting and storytelling, start with TNG. Though the first two seasons can be a bit rough at times, the show finds its stride around the time riker grows a beard.
The two TNG spinoffs DS9 and VOY are also great, though voyager has a little less memorable characters than the other shows (with two obvious exceptions I don’t want to spoil).
When you have watched those three, you could delve into nutrek as well (discovery, Picard, strange new worlds, lower decks). Those are essentially modern Trek, which will feel a bit different, but most of them make reference to the TNG era and it is nice to have watched that already to get those.

I watched Star Trek: The New Generation

TNG is a good entry point, but the first two seasons can be rough. Feel free to skip them if they’re on the verge of turning you off the series entirely.

Skipping S2 of TNG will mean missing some fantastic episodes. Imagine not seeing The Measure of a Man, A Matter of Honour, or Q Who.
WarmSoda@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Simple answer:
Episode 1 of Next Generation.
Then start watching Season 2 and skip any episodes that are boring.Step 3: Wrath of Kahn

Just load up the Star Trek channel on Pluto TV and see what’s playing. It’s free.

Why does it have to include sexist stereotypes?
ccdfa@lemm.ee 1 year ago
The meme is going directly against the stereotype. That’s it’s point.

That women are supposedly complaining about men not crying doing Titanic?

This, and the scene where Worf advises Data on picking a wedding present, are the two best Data/Worf scenes
tias@discuss.tchncs.de 1 year ago
I think this is the best scene in all of Star Trek TNG.

10/10 meme, I nearly cried at this one

The line should be, “Sir - Klingon relationships weather far worse than polite rebuke.” As written, it is bone-dry, even in the context of Worf getting pulled aside and chewed out.

Wrong franchise but the line applies.
Amazing. Every word of what you just said was wrong.
