It’s still so weird that they got the one completely charisma-free actor on the show to play Jim Kirk, and yet Sam Kirk lights up every scene he’s in
I think season 4 was the only one I didn't have to push myself to like - there were lots of great bits scattered throughout the first three seasons, but the fourth is where I felt like the whole season was enjoyable and strong (particularly the last couple of episodes).
I adore how campy this looks, but I'm so frustrated by the constant shoehorning of Kirk into the show. Maybe if the performance were interesting or there was something compelling about him it would be different, but he just seems to drag down the show whenever he appears (outside of the episode with La'an, but really, she was doing all of the work in that one).
How do you say "devour feculence" in Klingon?
New S2 trailer from Germany with a lot of new footage SPOILERS
FINALLY a Cerritos!
Why are they wasting this on Picard ships?
I cannot tell if it's terrifying or just hilariously bad. She looks like a drunk ventriloquist doll.
I guess they couldn't make a Rutherford because all their plastic went to Spock's incredibly long torso. Also, this set is VERY kind to Jonathan Frakes.
Even just the idea of Pete McTighe as showrunner has ruined my night. Yuck.
I have never read any Juno Dawson, but as a librarian I see her books come through pretty often and I've always heard good things!
These are all great choices, except what in the world is Pete McTighe, writer of the most quietly evil Doctor Who episode ever made (and then one of the most forgettable), doing there?
Every day this world gets dumber and dumber and yet I'm still surprised by how completely incompetent and unstable the main ENT crew (sans T'Pol and Phlox) are. It is something that even by 2025 standards - which are just about the lowest standards for stupidity possible - these people probably could probably not get through a week working at Walmart without getting fired for like fighting a stranger or sexually harassing their coworker.

Their capital city being a bunch of egg-shaped buildings around a giant birdcage building was a hilarious touch.
“Kahless, the first one, the original one, the one who did impressions” is just, I have no words

I have definitely been proven wrong by Star Trek things that look terrible at the outset, but...this looks terrible. I mean I guess we're getting a Deltan, so that's fun? And a chameloid is a bit of a deep cut? But jesus, I could not want to see this less. I hope I'll be proven wrong!
Usually contracts have to be negotiated after five seasons. Especially after the strikes last year, studios are committed to never budging an inch on contracts or residuals, even if it means losing money in the short term. To them, it's worth it to cancel even a successful or popular show if it means keeping their workers in a perpetual state of gig work and at a disadvantage for contracts on new shows.
Boims is an indoor kid
Judging by Nacelle's website, it looks like once again these will be expensive display figures that kids can't play with.
As a parent of young Star Trek fans, the fact that this is the worst-merchandised franchise in the world is incredibly annoying
