Their capital city being a bunch of egg-shaped buildings around a giant birdcage building was a hilarious touch.

“Kahless, the first one, the original one, the one who did impressions” is just, I have no words

I have definitely been proven wrong by Star Trek things that look terrible at the outset, but...this looks terrible. I mean I guess we're getting a Deltan, so that's fun? And a chameloid is a bit of a deep cut? But jesus, I could not want to see this less. I hope I'll be proven wrong!

Usually contracts have to be negotiated after five seasons. Especially after the strikes last year, studios are committed to never budging an inch on contracts or residuals, even if it means losing money in the short term. To them, it's worth it to cancel even a successful or popular show if it means keeping their workers in a perpetual state of gig work and at a disadvantage for contracts on new shows.

Judging by Nacelle's website, it looks like once again these will be expensive display figures that kids can't play with.

As a parent of young Star Trek fans, the fact that this is the worst-merchandised franchise in the world is incredibly annoying

Man, they could not have picked a collection of less interesting ships if they tried

Actually this brought up a completely buried memory for me. For a few years I lived in the same neighborhood as him – at the time, cool guy that I was, I had a Starfleet badge on my coat, and one day I was at the grocery store and had an awkward moment with him where our carts got sort of wedged together negotiating the too-narrow checkout lanes. He saw my pin and gave me a Vulcan salute as he moved into his lane. He seemed nice and a bit sheepish. The staff at the coffee shop I used to go to told me he was extremely lovely.

Probably because he sucks

Oops you just explained all of Enterprise

I love this show, but I do not understand how they cannot create a uniform that doesn't look like pajamas (the Cerritos-style uniforms Janeway and her crew wear look great though). The weird gray they seem to be enamored with looks so silly.

 

Oh heavens, whatever shall we do - it seems Legacy is dead
