Has anyone else ever seen the resemblance:
Just watched this episode for the first time…
I think there’s a mistake with 71 down - you need to add a few spaces and change it to “FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE”.
As said on the Daystrom crosspost, the bartender is the first live action appearance of an Edosian, dirst introduced in TAS.
Also, I’m pretty sure this episode contains the first live action appearance of an Edosian, first introduced in TAS and appearing in ever animated Trek series since.
You’re right that the attempt wasn’t necessarily malicious. I feel it can be possible to have good intentions and still end up doing something wrong, whether that be sexist, racist, or otherwise hurtful.
Inaccurate cultural depictions can take away control of a people’s story and misrepresent them in such a way that distracts from the fact that they are a present-day people living their own everyday lives.
Of course, I think the failures in Chakotay’s character development that you mention are also very real and are a major factor in the failure of his character.
Overall, though, I still quite enjoy Voyager.
How far did you watch into Prodigy? Let’s just say it gradually gets less forgettable - I think it really picks up mid-season 1.
I do love Lower Decks, though.
Another good one:

I know someone who read the book, and they said the show stayed mostly true to it plotwise; it tended not to skip things and actually added details.

I seriously recommend this show to any Trekkie.
Or, my fan theory is that since Picard demonstrates the Q may not be totally linear, Trelane is just Q2. At the very least, we know they can play around with time.
It’s posts like this that make me wish more social media applications had a button so you could dislike the news without shooting the messenger.
