An excellent thread on why to save Star Trek: Prodigy

(via https://twitter.com/NerdForce5/status/1686121027405819905)

Harrison ,

The later Space Odyssey entries were fairly optimistic. 3001 especially

Mirshe ,

Have you considered the $20 they’d need to pay the writers and actors over the next decade? Think of the poor profits.

Canada Post has already done it for all the TOS crew, and the 90s captains, the ships.

Even the Borg had their own Canadian stamp.

Troi was on a recent stamp for the UK Royal Mail.

That one was incredible. I still feel drawn to question, despite the episode’s resolution, whether being in the fields is preferable. Wonderful take on the ignorance is bliss theme

Jacko ,

Such a well done mashup, really clever and incredible talent on display. I’m a huge Broadway fan and a massive trekkie so this was just a love letter to me and I’m beyond grateful. SNW is always a welcome surprise, every week.

Jonathan Frakes on Directing Next Generation, Lower Decks

This interview goes assorted places, but it has a small interesting bit about next year's Discovery finale.

“I directed the first half of the finale of Season 5, which turned out to be the real finale... And then [‘Discovery’ executive producer and director] Olatunde Osunsanmi had to go back up and do two or three days of new stuff to actually make the finale the finale." https://variety.com/2023/tv/news/jonathan-frakes-star-trek-director-strange-new-worlds-lower-decks-crossover-1235680140/

@billmason @porthos @startrek I don't think that CBS had all the rights to all ST properties. Today CBS, Viacom and Paramount are united again, but not before end of 2019. For example: https://gizmodo.com/star-trek-discoverys-version-of-the-enterprise-had-to-1825276401

billmason OP ,
@billmason@mastodon.social avatar

@deafmutex @porthos @startrek Yes, the right to the first 10 movies at that point belonged to Viacom, who made them under license from CBS. But that's neither here or there to what Discovery was doing.

Also, the story that the Enterprise was changed in Discovery because of rights/legal issues has been debunked. https://comicbook.com/startrek/news/star-trek-discovery-enterprise-design-legal/

Star Trek: Prodigy Is One Of The Most In-Demand TV Shows In The US, Data Shows

I mean, not that surprising under the circumstances.

Cost them my Paramount sub. And I told them that if I was gonna subscribe to a service, just for Star Trek, it darn well better have all of it.

Tired8281 ,

Reminds me of the original series, cancelled right before they started tracking demographics, only to realize it was hitting all the right buttons and they’d killed the golden goose.

First look at Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 is out.

Rare Find: Lt. Uhura's Lost Singing Performance at Smithsonian!

Interesting discovery.

@startrek

CeruleanRuin ,

Having been there, it’s so strange to see her in that space and to recognize it even though it has changed so much. When she says “this must be an early version of the Smithsonian” I almost felt like I was time traveling back there with her.

Didn't actually realise that the subreddits of /r/StarTrek & /r/DaystromInstitute had a community @ https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] @startrek.

Given Trek fandom are often the first colonizers of online spaces in internet history (eg newsgroups) losing major Star Trek communities is big L for Reddit.

EDIT: Not permamently locked subreddits, got that wrong I think!

btaf45 , (edited )

Sounds like mods there are toxic. Not best for vast majority of people who want to know which Trek is good and which Trek is not so good.

edit: Didn’t even know this was posted to startrek.website. I am not subscribed there so I don’t know why I even saw it. Also, what is the reason for pointing out this forum exists inside this forum?

Tired8281 ,

Can’t wait till they bring up a ShittyDaystrom. I’ve got a post brewing about how the Federation wouldn’t exist without disgusting Ferengi sex programs. It’s way too long and snooty for Risa, and far too ridiculous for the actual Daystrom. :(

I just wish the newly announced animated vignettes with 90s legacy characters were actually going to be done in the Filmation style. I wasn’t at all impressed with the main character designs that were released at SDCC.

Pretty self-explanatory tl/dr: if you like the show, watch it (and get your friends onboard).

Paramount if you pull an Inside Job and kill LD I SWEAR I’m going to do some things. I don’t know what yet, but I’ll do them!

ieightpi ,

Damn I really do like the lemmy community more. On other social media aggregators, people are flipping the fuck out.

The more reasonable discourse about this article, on Lemmy is just healthier for everyone’s mental state.

That being said, I tend to agree this is a nothing burger and Leer Decks is likely fine for a few more years. It’s a low budget show and the writing is on point making a broad range of fans happy. I’ve heard this show has actually brought in a lot of new Trek fans too.
