There's been like 4 or 5 recent ST.com articles about queer related topics, one after the other. I suspect they are pushing a narrative, but not the one you're thinking of. TNG and later tended to be....progressive, yes, but not the way TOS was, they were always very careful and never strayed...

"Voyager had dumb plots, therefore humans have supernatural powers" is....quite the claim. Q's "I'm testing you" things comes up in two episodes, the first and the last, other times he's just there, screwing around with the crew for his own amusement or as part of something else. And I think...

I find it interesting that the article didn't really examine that (presumably because talking about how relatively minor figures can dictate policy to society at large would be a bit uncomfortably close to home). It touches on it: But that doesn't really align with what you're talking about...

On the one hand, that looks a lot like a writer with an agenda reading their politics into the script, with a healthy dose of not knowing what they're talking about, rather than something insightful about the show (because the only thing Picard demonstrates that most sci-fi writers are lazy...

Given that Voyager lost out on a chance to make it home, something that cost them the lives of several crew members later on....I would say no, they were not successful. The galaxy is full of not nice people doing bad things, I don't see how that gives Janway a mandate to get involved, let...

"Hard thing to do" is underselling it. This would be like if Jesus was actually an alien, and the whole crucifixion and fading into the heavens thing was a result of other aliens coming in to get rid of him and fake his disappearance in order to "fix the damage". There is a difference between...

They're from the AQ, but that doesn't make them her problem. Particularly given that all things considered, they were not doing all that much harm. But fine, let's say she feels she should stop them. Beam them up, throw them in the brig, and leave. None of this malarkey about saving the native...

True. But then again, on a fair number of times, Voyager got enmeshed in something because they decided to go poking around or get involved in something that's not their business, not because they accidentally stumbled into something. Almost every single trade deal gone wrong episode happened...

Oh, and just to set the record straight about Picard working with STO, that is not the case, as both STO proper and the STO novel Greater Than The Sum have plot points incompatible with Picard. Off the top of my head, here are the main issues: 1. Uniforms. In STO, the federation wears the...

I realize we kinda already have a thread on this, but as that thread was set up specfically to discuss a now-less-than-accurate prerelease rumor, I think having a proper, dedicated thread for the full show is fitting. Thus far, I feel like it probably would have benefited from a traditional 2...
