New trek is despicable and it's funny how much more tng resonates on a rewatch since I know what social anxieties are and how Barclays episodes dealt with them

TNG was awesome for those kinds of moments. I haven't watched it in a few years now but I bet I could sit down and still enjoy it nearly as much as the first time. Same with DS9 although I did rewatch it recently.

Don't get me wrong, Farscape was really fun. But you can't sit here and pretend that the story or character arcs were something to be praised.

mastershakeman posted:

Farscape is the best scifi show all time if you ignore red dwarf and the prisoner, bab5 a close second. Expanse has a chance to pass them

But star trek is way more culturally relevant and it's crazy how hard it's ethos of teamwork and listening to others is to replicate (heh)

Never seen Red Dwarf or Prisoner, guess I could look it up. As for the Expanse, i binged watched all 3 seasons this weekend and I feel like a fool for not having done so earlier.

really queer Christmas posted:

The bernie bro raiding party consists of 3-5 bros at the smallest (colloquially known as a chapo) and can be as large as 35 - 70. The raiding party will head into the forums wasteland where they will hunt their prey - a lanyard. The lanyard can be seen here in their natural habitat - a think tank conference room discussing the appropriate means testing to be applied to a tax credit. When the Bernie bro finds and engages their target, they begin to move at a swift speed which alerts the other bros and their parties which will soon form together into a harassing party.

It is at this point the lead bro will startle the lanyard by screaming "better things are possible" which will anger and confuse the lanyard causing them to fall over and be unable to rise back to their feet due to the lack of consistency in their spines. Now isolated from the rest of their bubble, few have survived the encounter with a bro raiding party, as the bros will soon ratio the poor lanyard until they are no longer able to respond back. Ah, but such is nature.

Thank you mr Attenborough for lending your voice for the narration of this post.

That's a good suggestion but he won't understand this episode unless he watches all the others before it. He should watch all the others before it, is my point.

I'm not too sure about that ranking... Story wize, I think babylon 5 could be higher but at the same time, it can't take TNG of DS9's place so I don't know. Farscape was fun but wasn't a great show by any means.

The overall story wasn't great, the character arcs were rather poor. Individual episodes were fun tho, I can't take that way from them. But an intellectual show it was not. What is was, was good entertainment for the sake of entertainment.
DS9, TNG, Babylon 5 all beat it by far. And the Expanse, holy poo poo.. I am so glad I watched that show.

Only if you accept that Episode 7, 8 and 9 have yet to be made. Whatever Disney came up with is complete trash. Except Rogue One which is the only one that felt like a StarWars

Look I love Babylon 5- but the thing is that show has not one but two separate white male Jesus's (who both get either reborn or resurrected) and Sheridan's every interaction with the league of non-aligned worlds basically comes off as him behaving like an entitled lanyard telling every nonhuman that their priorities/needs are irrelevant in comparison to his grand plan. (He literally treats them like spoiled children that have to be tricked into acting in their own best interest.)
