We are a space station, not a starship, so you’ll be spending a lot of time with all these delightful side characters like: bisexual nonbinary fashion lizard. hologram of Frank Sinatra. goblins. goblin comes in 3 varieties: bartender, nephew, and idiot union agitator. :rommunism:

our doctor is a twink, our commander is antifa/ maoist and the captain talks to the gods sometimes when not leading a protracted people’s war. our constable is sometimes a liquid and possibly ace. the science lady is trans and part worm. :dax-stoked:

we have many fine storylines, such as: Goblin Does A Crime, Watch The Irishman Suffer, Linear Time is A Lie, or The Horrors Of War. As you stroll along our promenade enjoying a raktajino or delicious jumja stick, watch out for our nefarious villains: Pope Karen. capitalism. clones of Jeffrey Combs. and a horny bastard reptile man who seems convinced this is actually his show. we suspect he may be possessed by demons. Have fun!

Deep Space Nine: now with Worf™! :warf-wtf: .

    They were in charge before though, right? Genuine question.

      Paramount sold TNG and DS9 as first run syndication, Voyager was on UPN and I forget about Enterprise.

          I thought so but wasn't sure. We didn't have UPN in my bit of Canadatown at the time.

            Still remember the promos UPN ran for Enterprise

            Especially the ones that were like "This ain't your daddy's Star Trek!"

            I still don't recall what was more bizarre, those ads or the episode of Voyager that was a stealth crossover with the WWE

              Kinda funny since Enterprise is the closest to TOS and runs on pure dad vibes

                Yeah, revisiting TOS reminded me of how profoundly horny it was

                Plus Archer was definitely supposed to be a slightly more cultured version of Kirk

                  He's a way less cultured version of Kirk. Kirk in TOS is way less yeehaw than people seem to think

                    Yeah, that's why I said "supposed"

                    We really never get more culture out of Archer than the fact that he named his dog after one of the Three Musketeers (pretty sure it's Porthos)

                    Apparently the writers thought that would be enough

                    He never really muses on subjects in the same way Kirk did and jumps to killing quite a bit faster
