They released remasters of TOS a few years back and thats what I am watching, its not too bad. Obviously lots of goofy shit but they changed as much of the VFX as they could, still looks like 60s but what you imagine, not what it originally was



not much different but good enough. I'm watching 1 episode a week basically and really enjoying it, especially since the other show i'm rewatching is TNG. Its great to watch before you watch SNW and/or Lower Decks since the last two make a lot of TOS/TNG references.

whats really hilarious is to see how radical the show was for its time when it comes to women/non whites, but also how hilariously backwards it will appear to young people today

Growing up raised by humans he became a total weeb (for Klingon stuff). His idealism runs head first in to the reality of the Klingon Empire on numerous occasions across both TNG and DS9 adding depth to the character and conflict for the writers to explore. Hell, towards the end of DS9 he challenges the fucking emperor to a duel to the death and in victory drags the empire on his own closer to what he believes it should be.

I love the part where Frakes describes the most expensive sets ever and high-list guest stars for the first episodes of an unproven show, created as the last hurrah by the guy getting kicked out of franchise/studio. What do you mean the numbers don't look good? Why do fans previous viewers that enjoyed prior series despise this so much?

The initial backlash against TNG was pretty severe but I guess back then you didn't have your instagram filling up with everyone calling you shit.

Season 1 was pretty fucking bad for the most part. At the time there was almost no scifi on the air, though, and when you are dying of thirst even brackish water tastes wonderful. And they did kill off Tasha.

I could never get into it. Mostly because of Whoopie and Wesley.

The nerds of the day wanted Kirk and Spock back on TV and were not quiet about it. Once the show hit it's stride everyone just pretended that never happened.

edit - just to expand on this a little

The TOS films were successful and there were plans for a relaunch. Instead of that happening you get season one TNG.

Ya, it is easy to forget, but TOS fans initially did not like TNG at all. Then when DS9 rolled around, TNG fans didn't think it was "real Trek".

Yeah the TOS holdovers were so strong - that - that was the entire point of "Generations"

The plot of generations is so stupid.

Its so stupid the Kirk part is not even the bad part...its the entire premise...

Bro could have just gotten a shuttle and driven into the ribbon ANYTIME HE WANTED TO
