    Re-Watching VOY

    Regardless of one's opinion of Discovery, I think most of us would agree it's a net boon that the show uses plain English to get it's scientific concepts and plots across. I've gone back to VOY recently myself and while I have a better appreciation for the show as a whole, the worst...

    Is STLD what STD should have been?

    You're honestly not wrong. It's been a long road ( :p ) starting my posting life on this board in particular as someone who was brand new to Trek with ENT, seeing the board who were aching for anything fresh and new at that time, only to now not only want to wrap itself back up to TNG style...

    Cringe moments in otherwise good episodes

    "Tattoo" is a surprisingly and all too rare story centered on Chakotay and his backstory; as a Black kid born in the first generation post-segregation and in a largely white school, with family that I will charitably say have traumatic experiences that influence their internalized...

    Voyager ending

    Even as J/C shipper trash (/pos) myself, the C/7 thing got an oversized amount of hatred as the biggest issue with the finale. As two subsequent shows have decisively proven, this was ultimately inconsequential fluff that was easily ignored. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for Alt-Admiral...

    Old Star Trek fans: don't you sometimes get happy just because there are new series?

    I won't lie, even I was hesitant to get a P+ subscription solely for Trek and if I wasn't already a lifelong Bold and the Beautiful fan, not even PIC would have been enough to get me subbed back in 2020.

    Old Star Trek fans: don't you sometimes get happy just because there are new series?

    Way late to the party but as someone who was a bit too young to see Trek's golden age, I too am happy for the new shows, even if not all of them click for me, cuz new fans mean new eyes onto the classics anyway. I dunno how many people who started w Lower Decks because "haha Trek adult cartoon"...

    Spoilers Variety about the future of Star Trek

    My guess would be conventions, local fan clubs and/or Usenet boards that existed. Also,AOL chatrooms once that became a thing in the 90s.

    Lower Decks Final Season: What Do You Hope to See?

    While this is true, there would be absolutely nothing preventing LD characters from appearing in a hypothetical third season of PRO ;) Tendi would be an especially great fit with that cast, being that she too was an outsider not that long ago. That and I think she wouldn't fangirl out every...

    Spoilers Variety about the future of Star Trek

    See also: "These Are the Voyages." Or better yet.... don't. That's probably the clearest example of bad fan service in all of fandom--a "valentine" that insulted the intelligence of the TNG fans and ignored the fact that not all ENT fans were TNG ones (in fact, many of the ones that were at...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Prodigy 2x20 - "Ouroboros, Part 2"

    Oh, it definitely wasn't you. I mean, the ship tease was turned up to 11 and their mirror universe counterparts were practically undressing one another in front of the Agonizer :lol: I mean, he and Holo-Janeway were arguing like an old married couple in the finale. Not gonna lie, this was very...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Prodigy 2x20 - "Ouroboros, Part 2"

    I don't even think it's that TBH. Starfleet Academy will be aimed at a teen audience, which would open up much different stories than Prodigy could get away with aimed at a 5 to 11 year old demographic. Plus, PRO didn't even spend any time actually IN the Academy, on Earth, which I assume SA...

    Spoilers Variety about the future of Star Trek

    One only needs to look at the state of Star Wars post TROS to see how slavish fan writing doesn't always translate to a good story. My hottest of hot takes is that one doesn't need to be a fan with encyclopedic knowledge to make a good Trek series. In fact, I'm at the point that is almost...

    Fifth Season is Final Season

    Same here. I wish the old ENT threads from the show's first run were still available because man, I can stress enough how burned out existing fans were by the end of that show. That we had five shows running nearly back-to-back in 2022 was something nine if us could fathom in 2005 when the...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Prodigy 2x10 - "The Devourer of All Things, Part 2"

    While I didn't clock that as a reference to Shran specifically, as someone whose first series was ENT and who saw the Andorian and Vulcan cultures learn to put aside mistrust in one another, seeing an Andorian officer swearing to protect a Vulcan cadet did warm the cockles of my cold, dead heart...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Prodigy 2x15 - "The Ascension, Part 1"

    No ;) I thought I was pretty steeled against nostalgia when my heart didn't grew three sizes after S3 Picard but seeing Janeway and Chakotay together on screen, with much better writing than either got on VOY, truly dies take me make to sophomore year of high school when Trek was all new to me...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Prodigy 2x14 - "Cracked Mirror"

    God, I didn't think I was in any way into J/C like my 16 year old self was, but if this is the way it becomes canon, I'll take it! They made Chakotay hot as hell in this series, I can't lie

    I dunno if you're still writing fanfic at all but yeah, the site is as user friendly as it gets! You'll love it :)

    House of Tucker is being moved to AO3

    Oof, I wasn't a T/T'P girlie back in the day but I did enjoy the message board part of it. I loved how TATV continued to auto correct to "The abomination" even when I last visited there three years ago :lol: But damn, it's absolutely the end of an era to see it go but I'm happy the fics will...
