With another 800 coming. In case people haven't noticed but EVERY Trek opinion is controversial one!
This isn't Star Trek, but is as Astronomy: As far as I'm concerned, in my Controversial Opinion: Pluto is a planet! There are nine planets in the Solar System, not eight.

Damned right!!!
Screw the Neil deGrasse Tyson reboot.
Agreed, and although TOS used some surplus components as part of various sets, the overall original design / sets established one of sci-fi (and TV's) most unique appearances. Instantly recognizable post-Mid Century futurism ideas. OTOH, TNG--while building on the TOS movie ships and interiors to a degree--still had the appearance of the common rental house scif-props seen as far back as Battlestar Galactica--probably due to the fact TNG did use some of the same blinking, strobing installations from the Glen Larson shows, which dated TNG right out of the gates.
The "alien" feel between the cast was the result of a mandate to push the "evolved" human BS, where most of the characters were delivering stuffed-shirt, looking down their collective noses-type speeches that felt as relatable to viewers as the soulless BS heard at political conventions. Is it any wonder TNG's characters failed to move beyond its series to become fixtures of pop culture?

Actually, didn't a map of the solar system show 9 planets in "THE CHANGELING"? And also in THE MOTION PICTURE?
That would definitely make it canon.
There we have it! Nine Planets is Canon.
There’s 13, isn’t there?
4 inner planets
4 outer planets
5 dwarf planets

Science wasn't so good during the TOS time period. I mean look at their ships? Looks like they came from the 1960's or something. Thankfully by the time TNG came along we saw the Federation gets its act together and once again Pluto was no longer a planet.
Hold on. Pluto wasn't declared to be not a planet until 2006. So that means we can blame this all on Nu-Trek!!! Jar-Jar Abrams and Alex Klutzman, and... and how can YouTube Commenters take themselves seriously with that type of name-calling?
Pluto wasn't demoted from planet status until 2006... LONG after TNG ended. Hell, it was a year after ENTERPISE ended. There's no way our system was cut down to 8 planets on TNG.
Here's one post more for another 800, here we come.
We are the controversials, you will be extinguished.
We will read and judge your controversial opinions and ignore them.
Your controversial opinions will be laughed at.
Trying to convince anyone you're right is futile.
That's not what I heard from Sir Paul, Sir Mick, and Sir Elton.
Or Sir Mix-a-lot.
I just call him Sir Patrick cos it sounds slightly goofy and amuses me.
I admit, I call him SIR Patrick when I think he's being an idiot.I just call him Sir Patrick cos it sounds slightly goofy and amuses me.
