- Comment on Voyager crew incompetence. Has Trek always been like this? 1 day ago:
reset button mashing was a reality of making network television in the 80s and 90s.
Budgets relied on sets that didn’t need to be updated every week to a consistent level of “damage” in the passage of time. It’s no different than the fact that no matter how many car destroying stunts the General Lee did one week, the next episode it was running fine and dandy.
I’m tired of Voyager getting shit for that when literally every episodic show in the era relied on it. They HAD to. There was no Cheap CGI. the ability to keep updating the sets with new damage only really came about with the BSG remake, and THAT’S because budgets had increased exponentially.

Atlantis was no more real than Hogwarts. It was made up in order to serve the story he was telling.

Anytime a sentence begins with “Trump says”, it should be followed with “Trump, however, is an idiot.”

Because then Tuvix would still exist. And that flies in the face of all that is holy.
