This was included in the Star Trek Day content, but released separately a couple of days ago.

It’s nice to see Discovery getting a lot of love in this. It also really shows how great so many of Discovery’s vfx heavy scenes have been.

Calling Lower Decks "Space Family Guy" is an enormous insult to Lower Decks and makes me wonder if you've actually watched any.

Strange New Worlds is the most consistently good any Star Trek series has ever been.

I totally lived the cross-over episode of SNW and LD. Nicely done.

[–] AzPsycho@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Agreed. It was an amazing bit of fan service that was executed in a way that didn't t make it feel cheap or meaningless.

Orville season 1 was space family guy. The next seasons were the best star trek we've gotten recently.

I don't think that's what they're suggesting. The context is "Paramount is afraid to move the franchise forward".

Don't feed the troll

Sorry, I know it's actually space Rick and Morty, I was being flippant.

[–] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

That might be worse.

It's not that either. You really should give it a watch it's actually surprisingly good despite it's superficial appearance.
