    Riker = Horny, trombonist, scolds you for believing fake stories

    Picard = Likes tea, traumatized by patio lights

    Janeway = Murderous criminal

    Sisko = The cooler murderous criminal

    That about covers it.

          Here’s the thing about science fiction. It is just regular fiction set in the future.

          No, this didn’t happen in the show did it?

              I cant actually find any good comparisons of the ships, but it’s not that surprising.

              I mean after the explosive size difference between prime and altered timeline stories I suppose they could have some fun with it. And the fact that it has a unique method of travel.

      I have so many star shows to watch.

      Like I have seen Stargate SG-1 but nothing for the rest of related tv shows.

      I have Star Wars stuff pending I have seen the two initials trilogies tough.

      0 from Star Trek except part of Picard.

      I also haven’t seen Battlestar Galactica

                For note, some Star Trek fans consider it the best Star Trek film, despite obviously not being Star Trek. Whether that’s true is up for debate, but it helps demonstrate the movie’s quality.

        Can totally relate, I have a NAS media server and I am addicted to archiving media to the point where I have seen maybe a drop in the bucket of what I have stored to watch haha

        Just do yourself a favor and like those other series, keep Trek on a list. If you enjoy Stargate I think you will enjoy Star Trek too, Picard is not exactly standard Trek if you will and doesn’t represent the older series exactly as they have more structure and more seasons

        You will likely be alive for awhile (hopefully!) so you’ll get to trek sooner or later :)

        They both had great first series/trilogies, kinda shitty follow-ups more than a decade later, and J. J. Abrams then hammered the final nails into both franchises in the 21st century.

        I think we all know the best captain is SNW Christopher Pike.

    Honestly, all the memes is what got me to start watching Next Gen, and I’m so glad I did.

      I’ve been wanting to rewatch TNG and DS9, but I don’t have access to Paramount+ and haven’t gotten around to finding an alternative source yet

        Hello friend, allow me to introduce you to this project that has performed AI remasters for DS9 and is currently working on Voyager (halfway thru s1 I think)

        https://ds9redefined.wordpress.com/

        check out the screenshots they provide (shown with a slider so you can easily compare source with remake):

        https://ds9redefined.wordpress.com/screenshots/

        Join their discord, and go to the #instructions channel, there is an ftp server for all completed episodes; you don’t need to run the workflows on the source eps yourself

        Enjoy old trek in a more clear and vibrant experience :)

          Whoa what. How reliable is that? Do they check every frame before/after. First time I’ve ever heard of AI remastering… As Spock would say, “fascinating.”

            They are quite diligent in my experience, they’ve gone back and redone episodes on whims or by requests from people on the discord

            I actually first started with the UTR/Joybell AI remaster which was better than the source files I had but was quite rough around the edges, especially the first season or two. Bright areas would blow out and show jagged lines, bleh

            But this remaster is SO much better. Here is their workflow they keep updated so you can see what they do

            There are comparison videos they have done as well, adding details like clearing up monitors and displays, etc

    I watched Picard’s Flute at the recommendation of a friend 10+ years ago. I’m assuming every episode is as perfect. Never watched another episode. Welcome the the club.

      Have you heard of Star Trek Continues? It’s a fan-made production that meticulously re-created the look of TOS to “complete the five-year mission.”
