TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/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.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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.

I'll watch it because I love trek and even bad trek is more trek.
But I'm hopeful because Paul Giamatti is an amazing actor and a half klingon/half tellarite sounds amazing.
That's the thing about this one. They have set it so distant from existing Trek lore that the floodgates are open for actually interesting stuff to be added to canon. Every new Trek so far has ultimately been tied up with some existing canon stuff. It's like Star Wars never leaving the Skywalker era.
Hoping Starfleet Academy is more like the Acolyte then.
...I kid.
My biggest worry is what they do with the Klingons in the 31st century; they’re probably going to talk about how war-torn and poor Qo’Nos is or have the planet have gotten blow up or something dumb like that.
I’d love to have it so that either Qo’Nos surprisingly has had its crap together and managed to avoid brutal civil wars post-burn, with the result being in defiance of all expectations, it was one of the better planets to get stuck on after the Burn.
I hope that they do actually add something interesting.
One of the most disappointing things about the 31st century transition was that it felt like very little actually changed, other than a futuristic coat of paint.
Visuals aside, it seemed like all technological progress stopped about 500 years ago.
That is just... Not a smart thing to do. Just mindlessly consuming stuff that's bad because it's part of a franchise you like leads to more bad media of that franchise being published. Be critical! Be brave enough to draw a line and keep it!
Meh, you do you. I'll watch what I want to watch and that is trek even if it's bad trek.
What this attitude tells executives is "guess we don't need to bother trying to make Trek good, they'll eat up whatever we shovel their way."
I'm a big fan of Star Trek. That's why I haven't watched anything other than Lower Decks since Discovery started airing.
My viewing habits aren't scrutinized by them so I'm not too worried.
I subscribe to an Orion holorecording stream.
This guy is low-key the Gowron of the Orions. I kind of hope he shows up again in one of the two later seasons.
Not unless his cooking improves.
Would also like an update on Captain Angel's antics since her escape.
