/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. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Okay so I'm a new ST fan, my BF got me started on TOS & TNG recently and Ive really been enjoying it, but Ive been judging a book by its cover with lower decks because the art style looks so much like Rick and Morty to me. Is the story itself anything like R&M or does it feel like star trek?

[–] BertramDitore@lemm.ee 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

It definitely feels like Star Trek, hilarious Star Trek. But like some other commenters said, it will help a lot if you finish the various live action series first. Lower Decks is chock full of fan service, so you don’t need to have watched everything, but many lines of dialogue will make more sense if you do.

The Strange New Worlds/Lower Decks crossover is peak hilarity. The fan service continues even in live action. Lower Decks was brilliant to cast voice actors who also do live action, because that crossover is a genuinely excellent episode of Star Trek.

I’m jealous that you get to see all this for the first time! Enjoy!
