If you’ve watched any Star Trek this week, feel free to drop the episodes/movies and any thoughts you might have on them in the comments!
Just finished season 3 and began 4 of ST Enterprise. I had never seen an episode even though I watched TOS as a kid and TNG as a young adult.
I liked it better than I thought I would, but certainly not all of it. Time should be left to Doctor Who, but it could have been worse. I winced at a number of things said and done, but they had some interesting moral dilemmas on the way. They should have leaned harder into the “first time space exploration” but it wasn’t that bad.
This is part of my process of working though all of Trek revisiting old and moving forward. So far I have watched in this order: TOS, TNG, TAS, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, and now Enterprise. Next Picard or Disco? Both are rewatches at first but I didn’t finish either so I will need to do that this time.
Yeah, time travel and similar is something that is hard to do well. It usually opens a lot of plot holes and requires a major suspension of disbelief to work!
I’m afraid I don’t have a recommendation on which show to go to next though, I’ve never finished Discovery and Picard either.
For me it was a few more episodes of Voyager and then Hegemony Part 1! Work tomorrow will drag until I can get home to watch the new episodes!
Waiting for Strange New Worlds to drop.
It’s been two very long years, but it’s finally here! I was able to watch the first episode before work, and it’s great to have Star Trek back!
First couple episodes of Season 5 of Lower Decks. Not bad, I don’t love the stolen parallel pad arc overall, but these episodes were solid. I love the post-scarcity planet episode.
Yeah, I thought they could have done something similar without using the PADD, but the episodes were at least pretty entertaining!
The wife and I finished Discovery season 2. I let her know that I only wanted to get her to the point at which SNW spun off from Discovery and we could skip the rest of the series if she wanted.
We watched a few more episodes of SNW and are about half through season 2. We also watched some more Lower Decks getting well into season 2.
Nice! Are you going to rush to the end of SNW S2 to watch the S3 episodes as they come out, or wait until the season is over?
We are rushing to the end of s2, I know we’re already missed the s3 premiere. But I hope to be current by e4.
We have always liked watching shows as they are released rather than binging, unless trying to get current.
That’s the way I normally try to do it too. It’s been a lot of fun since Strange New Worlds began, as it was the first time since I had been a fan that there was a Trek show airing that I enjoyed!
