Did anyone ever apply that dumb theory to actually invading, extraterrestrial aliens?

I'm grateful it isn't going to be legacy characters. There has been a certain fetish for recasting the TOS crew as nauseam, and I'm optimistic that it won't be more of that.
Still, after the Section 31 ~~show~~ TV movie, I'm not too confident that it isn't going to be about a bunch of "lovable" space pirates doing un-Starfleet-like things because that seemed to work for Star Wars and the DCEU...
He's probably manifesting Picard through his own and Sarek's shared Katra. Like a Katra ghost... Because that's the sort of dumb shit the SNW writers will make up on the spot for no good reason.
Four words, "The year of hell". It was 90 minutes and immediately reset by the end of part 2...
I agree, Locarno at the con would have significantly upped the ante for Voyager. We did see a hint of it in the pilot when Janeway bails Paris out of the penal camp, but the over the course of the first season they pretty much shrugged it off and he is such a Milquetoast character for most of the show.
If we were in the Doctor Who community I'd have a meme ready for you.
On a visual note,
The titles are presented on a series of retro-styled trading cards, an homage to Star Trek's colorful 1960s-era merchandise, with a portrait of one of the show's stars on each card.
Sorry Collider, these reference a set of 1976 sticker cards (with the colour scheme keyed up for 2026). You were off by a decade 🙂
Yuck, SNW was all the nostalgia tripping I could take. More boldly going, please!
It certainly lowered my enthusiasm for SFA s2, knowing they went hard with a cliffhanger finale... That show had a lot of spirit and promise, I wanted to follow those kids through the academy.
SNW — I know I'm in the minority here, but I couldn't get into the show's tone, and especially the way it's leading doggedly towards TOS, literally checking boxes for each continuity item. It feels like a dead man walking, and even more so now. This is actually the first time I've looked forward to a Trek show ending.
Oh, so jealous. TBF, it's still hilarious on fourth and fifth watching.
Barclay was evading real life conflict and pressure for sure, but also doing erotic power play with holo-versions of his crewmates... I think that last part was an early taste of our current deepfake porn reality 😬
Either way, Lower decks made it clear that into the 2380s, cleaning out the holodeck biofilters was still the worst job on a starship:
People really use it for that?
Oh yeah. It's mostly that.
