Star Trek TV series(es) - general discussion of the franchise

[Reno]

I watched What We Left Behind, a two hour documentary about DS9, which was my favourite Star Trek show. Apart from Avery Brooks, who is well presented via archive material, all actors and several of the main show runners took part and the parts which deal with reminiscing about the show is entertaining enough. It could loose half of it’s running time though which is taken up with the writers cooking up a hypothetical reunion episode, which is totally useless. The first five minutes are so cringey, they made me switch this off the first time I tried to watch this and not return to it for a month. If you were a fan, it’s worth a watch though. To the documentaries credit, it’s not all rosy reminiscing. The most interesting part addresses why Terry Farrell (Dax) left the show for its last season.

Posted this in the discovery thread but may as well here as I suspect people without access to Netflix etc ignore that thread:

Has just come to my attention that season 1 of discovery is airing on e4. Not sure how many episodes in. I assume it’s on their catch up service but could be assuming wrong. So everyone should be able to catch up a bit now as e4 is free to air channel.

I noticed this and it reminded me Discovery exists. On the fourth time of trying I made it through the first episode conscious. Also made it through the second.

You need new material. It was a good joke. But I dinnae think it can take any more.

You can’t fully appreciate that joke until you’ve read it in the original Klingon.

I wish those were legit.

Spoilered because some people don't like being made aware of future casting. It's for the new Picard series, and it's also really quite sweet

[Sarcasm] Nice to see modern Star Trek continuing to make fresh new series, that aren't all based on nostalgia [/sarcasm]
