/c/TenForward: 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. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

All someone had to do was see the Filmation logo and know they were in for a rough ride in terms of animation.
Did they have a poor reputation compared to other animation studios?
They had a reputation of saving money whenever they possibly could, which is why not just animation is re-used constantly in TAS to a ridiculous degree, but animations of characters are regularly just slightly changed to turn them into "new" characters. Someone else shared a meme this morning with the "transporter chief" that was basically Scotty except they replaced the hair and gave him a giant ridiculous mustache.
TAS' advantage over other Filmation shows was having a handful of TOS actors and TOS writers working on it. The rest of them? The voices and the writing are pretty much all terrible.
Most of the TOS cast was on board, I think only Walter Koenig didn't participate. As for other voices, most of those were done by TOS castmembers with James Doohan in particular having several non-Scotty roles.
