you fuckers are all over my active feed and I’m laughing at shit I don’t understand. I refuse to believe the show is this funny, but if, say, a friend wanted to prove me wrong, what incarnation of star trek would they tell me to start from? especially if they knew I hadn’t seen a single episode.

    Update for everyone - based on these, I’m currently 1/3 through episode 1 of Voyager. I had to pause it to go run some errands but I’m loving it so far.

      I watched some of it back in the day, but never finished it. Grabbing some beers and joining you!

        I’m rewatching it now, just broke into S6. I watched it when it was coming out, too. Honestly, there’s WAY more ethical subtlety than I had absorbed when I was younger.

        And to be fair, when the show was actually running on cable, as a young man on the cusp of puberty, I was understandably distracted by Jeri Ryan’s… unimatrices.

        On the whole, definitely noticing a TON more acting subtlety in general this time around, but also particularly with Seven. Jeri is legitimately an outstanding actress, and played the shit out of her character.

      This is the most wholesome update ever, don’t make me cry. You are a cinnamon roll starting a magic carpet ride.
