Welcome to a Star Trek community where you’re free to chat and share your opinions about all things Trek!

I want to have a place where fans can come to praise, discuss, and even criticise things in the Star Trek franchise. No show or movie is perfect, and I don't believe people should be silenced for having a dissenting opinion. That being said, there are still a few rules.

Be Nice - No personal attacks. You can disagree with someone's opinion, but it needs to stop there.

No Slurs - This is applicable to ethnicity, religion, gender, or anything else.

No Adult Content - Keep it family friendly.

No Spamming or Trolling - Consistently spamming comments or trolling is just not needed.

Please keep topics Trek related or Trek adjacent for the most part, and have fun!

I didn't even bother watching it. I'm really tired of them spinning up shows from the timeline prior to TNG, because it inevitably leads to all sorts of retconned bullshit. Plus, the initial trailer of STD looked very 'meh' to me anyway.

Can they please just do another shows that's chronologically after STV?! Picard looked promising, and I enjoyed season 1. But then it gradually declined in season 2-3 by focusing too much on the TNG cast and marginalizing the new characters (though to be fair I didn't even bother with season 3).

Season 3 of Picard is Star Trek at its best. Granted a lot of it will hit harder if you’re old enough to have watched TNG, DS9 & Voyager in the 90’s but please give it a chance. Especially if you liked the 12 Monkeys series.

Okay, you've convinced me. :)

The thing that put me off season 3 was not really seeing any of the season 1 or 2 characters in the trailer. That was a bummer as I liked them and wanted to see how they developed them further. But I watched TNG when it first aired and love all those characters, so that would be a massive nostalgia draw.
