    Rewatching Yesterday's Enterprise to get caught up on the Rachel Garrett stuff that'll be in the Section 31 movie. I forgot how good the Tasha Yar/Sela arc was on TNG.

    I spoiled myself and saw what Breen without the masks look like in the final season of Discovery. Yeah no. Swing and a miss...I wish I didn't see that lol.

    Also all these Trek series cribbing story elements of DS9, and the only Nu-Trek that has been able to come close to matching DS9's actual tone was that really good PTSD war flashback episode where Robert Wisdom plays a Klingon from the latest season of SNW

    Gave up on Discovery. The far future "The Burn" stuff is just so bad.

    I am now watching LD season 4. I cannot believe they did an episode spoofing on Tuvix lmao. This is a show that knows it's fanbase so well.

    Still don't like setting stuff in the Kelvin timeline and doing an alt-canon, but ill check this out. Wonder if we will get Kelvin timeline Captain Archer and Zefram Cochrane

    I don't get it, at some point in the past don't both timelines cease to be separate?

    Also the creation of Starfleet is in the 22nd century around 100 years before the Kirk era, and humanity's first contact with Vulcans is in the late 21st century around 200 years before the Kirk era. Are they implying both those things happen around the same time just "decades before" Kirk's Enterprise in the 23rd century?

    I personally was into the idea of doing a Kelvin Timeline TNG movie set 100 years later.

    Terry Matalas going to Marvel to run the new Vision series is getting the Trek fans online real worried that they've lost him for good and that we're not getting the Seven of Nine as captain of the Enterprise series now.

    Well, this ending is probably the closest Discovery has ever come to sticking the landing. It still died as it lived (heavyhandedly sentimental and borderline nonsensical at times) but at least with this episode, unlike the end of previous seasons, it still felt like the stakes were real, unlike the Booker revival for example. All in all it was probably my least favorite Star Trek series, but that’s not really a huge diss since I love this franchise and something has to be at the bottom. One less Star Trek series on TV is a net negative for me regardless of how I felt about the show overall

    Stopped watching Discovery sometime early in season 4 after just barely making it through season 3. Is it worth watching the final season at this point?

    I would say it’s still fundamentally the same show it’s been since the time jump, so I’d think if you gave up on it after that point you probably won’t like the final season any more.

    Yeah recently tried getting through this just to say i watched the whole series in time for the end, and I couldn't make it past season 3

    Thank god for Strange New Worlds, that all I'll say. Without SNW the state of Trek series would be looking pretty bleak.

    Starfleet Academy being a direct spinoff of DIS stuff with presumably much of the same team/writers. The potential post-Picard "Star Trek: Legacy" stuff now in question with Matalas getting scooped up by Kevin Feige and Disney. Lower Decks ending. SNW better go a few more seasons lol

    I’m very much hoping for SNW to do a similar 7-season run to TNG/VOY/DS9
