Seems like the best science youtuber also has good Star Trek opinions
criticizing the Picard show (and nu-trek writers/execs more broadly) is one of the few entertainment topics I can see myself watching 3.5 hours of
I continue to insist that most of the nu-trek series are good, actually. The bad ones are just so bad, and so much more talked about, that they drown out the good.
SNW, LD, Prodigy(?) and...? I must know, I've been disconnected from trek for a while now.
oh yeah I should resume that.. only watched a few eps and I heard it gets real good later
He has some of the funniest scenes and also some of the most sincere and heartfelt. Like when he

volunteered to do Topa's trans surgery against Union orders then calmly but forcefully stopped Klyden from interfering.
The Orville gets a lot of mileage out of the Union's medical science being even more advanced than the Federation's. Like the early episode where Isaac cut Gordon's leg off as part of a prank war and the easy answer was to just grow him a new one which took a day or two.
All the wacky Moclan traditions were very fun except for the ones that were extremely not fun.
Oh yea, I did watch a couple seasons and was surprised by how decent it was. Still has a few MacFarlane-isms but it's got the spirit. The Moclan child arc was actually really impressive aside from a couple lib bits.
The Moclan child arc in season 3 is some of the best Trek of all time tbh
The four good current era Trek series, in descending order of preference:
1: Lower Decks
2: The Orville
3: Prodigy
4: Strange New Worlds
I am absolutely uncompromising on the point that The Orville is a legitimate Star Trek show
I'm not entirely convinced of that one but it has been a while since I saw Galaxy Quest
btw any thoughts about Andromeda? I watched a few eps of S1, seemed all right, heard it goes downhill after S1 though
It's been a pretty long time since I saw it but I thought it was fun even though it was bad
My favorite thing about Picard from this series was how he became a gullible spineless coward who gives up on everything the moment it becomes difficult
I dislike Last Jedi because it was poorly written slop, you hate it because it's woke
Which makes the discourse around the movies (and star trek and etc etc.) unbearable cause it's hard to criticize them without getting lumped in with the chuds, and you can't defend the more diverse casting, etc., without having the same chuds descend upon ye
The last Jedi was such a massive disappointment for me. Was actually looking forward to it. Thought they might actually take it into a new direction. It was instead one of the worst films I've ever watched.
Also they made a race of slave Data knockoffs and then the Romulans did a space 9/11 so they genocided the slaves
Didn't see this one! Really enjoyed her string theory and dark matter vids, and my trash (positive) is cool people dunking on other people's trash (negative) so I'm definitely watching this
