I miss Lower Decks so much. As much as TOS, and when I was growing up, TOS was all we had.

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Lower Decks has become a comfort show for me and as soon as I finish it, I want to start over.
I’m on a TNG rewatch right now, but I’ll probably be right back to LD before very long.
Another show lost to streaming war bullshit.
I'm hopeful it gets picked up somewhere else
I thought it ended well, but certainly took an unexpected turn. Lieutenant Kim was worth it.
Edit: I also solved the problem of watching it through the high seas
I agree Kim was worth it. “Fissure Quest” is a wonderful episode that offsets a bit of the disappointment of the finale (which, while underwhelming, I would hardly call a bad episode). I certainly would love it to continue in some form.
I loved Malor, but am annoyed a bit what they did with Ma’ah in the end - how does this guy go from “Beckett is honorable” immediately after meeting her to near instantly distrusting her? They should have found a way to allow Boimler that moment without it being at Ma’ah’ expense.
Fuck I hate that song.
Me, too. It's like a perfect snapshot of the post-9/11 country music scene I was forced to endure growing up.
But in addition to that, it always felt incongruous with Archer's character. He's 41 at the start of Enterprise. This is a song about how he's been struggling for so long and no one is going to hold him back because of his faith, but the whole story is how they held his father back his whole life, and they've successfully held Archer back until he's middle-aged.
As a 38-year-old, lemme tell ya. If faith didn't get you through the door at 20, it ain't faith getting you out the door at 41. It should've been a song about dogged determination in the face of adversity.

I'll allow it.
No they're not gonna change my mind
