Isn’t this Han Solo and Chewbacca?
No, I’m pretty sure it’s Malcolm Reynolds and Wash.
I’m a real Trekkie. My favorite ships are the USS Prometheus and the MCRN Rocinante.
Good ships.
Uhhhh that is obviously Laas and Rom.
Data and Neelix
It’s pronounced Netflix you dummy
NetflixNeelix and chill ;)Next trend? Sexy pictures of Neelix.
Kneelicks and cheese 🧀

Now that’s a name I’ve not heard in a long time…a long time.
Nice! I wasn’t aware of that site, the name just came to me. :)
The only fake trekkies are the ones complaining that newer Trek is too political or “woke.”
What show did they even watch?
They’re not “too political” or “woke,” they’re written by terrible committees and the executive producers / show runners are hacks.
Lower Decks (and Prodigy, I’m told) excluded.
The best Star Trek show is the one you like the most. If that’s Discovery, that’s fine. And if you don’t like the show, that’s also fine. But making an overall declaration that a show is terrible and tacitly expecting everyone to agree is not cool.
I’m not expecting everyone agree whether or telling anyone whether or not they should or shouldn’t like it, but there are many more demonstrable issues with writing and plotting, let alone canon, that exist in excess throughout Discovery, Picard, and SNW. These are objective issues that actual writers have taken issue with, and they’re consistent issues with the executive producers involved.
Absolutely TNG or DS9 aren’t some pantheon of perfection, but from an overall standpoint of consistency, narrative continuity, and proper handling of characters and their development? They’re lightyears beyond the juvenile handling of characters and plots in the post 09 FMV shows. It’s just fact.

You’re ascribing a lot of emotional baggage to what I typed on my phone while pedaling a stationary bike that doesn’t exist.
I’m not here to argue the finer points of plot holes in these productions that have been under spotlights for years and detailed far better by people with enough time to make hundreds of videos on the subjects like Robert Meyer Burnett, Nitpicking Nerd, and Red Letter Media.
If you enjoy these shows, fantastic, more power to you. Just don’t tell me they’re amazingly well-made and just as good as previous incarnations of Star Trek when they can and have been analyzed ad nauseam, displaying exactly how they aren’t.

Strange New Worlds is fantastic and takes plenty of risks other shows don’t.
Fervently disagree, it has squandered all it could have been and the writing is still absolutely awful. Granted, it’s a notch above Discovery and Picard.
Why?
It’s a little little hit or miss. I really liked some of it, but some of the early stuff wasn’t so great.
So it really is Star Trek, then. :P
People like to forget how many shit episodes of every series there are.

Idk, I watched 2-3 seasons of DSC and gave up, my gf liked it so she kept watching it, whenever I’d watch an episode with her, I wouldn’t enjoy it.
DSC convinced her to watch TNG, so we watched it from the start and seasons 1-2 were better than I remembered.
You’re not wrong…
Wow, they’re just outing themselves
I’m re-watching DS9 for the third time or something, but I’ve never seen anything released after Voyager except for the Abrams movie travesties. Am I still a Trekkie?
You should consider watching the Lower Decks episode “Hear All, Trust Nothing” if nothing else.
Well, I gotta say cartoon Kira and Quark have me very curious.

Yes
Only like 1/4th of the new stuff even has half-decent writing. Only the last season of Picard and the Strange New Worlds or what ever are even good TV, let alone “Star Trek”
I … guess what I’m saying is, you’re not missing much. Stange New Worlds is probably the closest to old trek. The other crap is drama before even plot, let alone drama over intelligence.

Two of my least favorite characters anyway.
THERE, I SAID IT.
