If O'Brien is perpetually confused it's probably because he has to keep a space station engineers by the Cardis running. I would be perpetually confused too, what with the plasma injectors being the way that they do and all

Especially when he has to keep taking time off work to suffer Horrors Beyond Human Comprehension™

And apparently he's the only one who can do actual work, and by work I mean everything, from fixing the future version of your apartment's gas stove, to making sure the whole space station doesn't explode for whatever reason this week.

It only explodes if you upload everyone's brains into the main computer, or you go look in a random section you've never been in before, and how often is that going to happen.

Anyway the most dangerous thing on board is absolutely definitely the turbo lift, someone's getting their fingers cut off or is falling down the hole in the bridge.

He had to add in so many second backups, too!

Picard gets pegged? I clearly missed the TNG After Dark episodes.

After watching Lower Decks for 3 seasons and going back to TOS, I’m thinking about watching some of the middle entries. What are some of the meaningful differences between them. In other words: What should I watch?

[–] Shawdow194@kbin.social 4 points 8 months ago

I highly reccomend DS9 and Voyager (in that order) if you did like TOS

DS9 is much better since it follows a continuing plot instead of TOS which is more of a "monster of the week" format

Honestly every series is enjoyable in its own right if you don't take it too seriously. Even the worse ones like Enterprise are still fun to watch, even if they don't hold a candle to others.

I can enjoy them all, as you said.

I watched the first season of discovery. It was pretty cool...I enjoyed all the characters. Now, though, it's 2% story and 98% messaging. Wtf is this shit?

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 3 points 8 months ago

What? Messaging? Its the same as its been ?

It starts getting good around season 3

[–] bleistift2@feddit.de 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It also starts disappearing from Amazon around season 3… if we’re talking Lower Decks.

Oh, I was talking tng. Were we talking about lower decks?

Edit: nope, it was TOS. We were both wrong haha. In which case I still maintain that it starts getting good after season three.

[–] yournamehere@lemm.ee 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

i hate lower decks because they stole the entire style from Final Space. everything. lost all respect for star trek.

I advise you to never ever educate yourself on the history of art

[–] yournamehere@lemm.ee 1 points 8 months ago

well one could argue star trek is like hitler germany supressing art and stealing all kinds of shit. cant remember an artist really that extorted the entire art of another artist. you?

I don’t understand the pegging reference. Also

lesbian terrorist

[–] Corgana@startrek.website 12 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

I don’t understand the pegging reference.

Maybe this will help:

EDIT: @PanoptiDon@lemmy.world did one better: https://startrek.website/comment/9648635

[–] Sop@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 8 months ago

Ah I don’t remember that scene. It’s been a while

[–] Zorque@kbin.social 5 points 8 months ago

Basically implying their relationship is homoerotic in nature.
