/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Only the very wealthy in their Ivory Towers were able to see such things in the 90s.
Us peasants living in the wilderness only heard whispers of such great awesomeness.
Seriously though, as a kid in northern Ontario, we didn't have cable and I was only ever able to see some episodes of TNG and never on a regular basis. I heard about Voyager and DS9 but I never had the chance to see any of them
It wasn't until I got older and I bought the entire TNG series that I was able to see all of it in about 2000, then later Voyager on DVD about five years later and now I'm working my way through DS9 for the first time.
Star Trek was great when we were kids .... most of us just weren't able to afford to watch it back then.
How could series back then afford to run more than two seasons? Like every tv channel I've ever had access to only bought the two first seasons then re-ran them over and over and over again, in random order. I was never able to finish a series until internet became popular.
Star Trek was very good at being made cheaply. That's originally why they had transporters. You don't need to film how they get from one location to another. And they did things like Shuttlepod One in Enterprise, where the entire episode literally takes place in one room.
Both TOS and TNG did both come very close to total cancellation though. I believe it was Lucille Ball that saved TOS
