/c/TenForward: 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. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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.

I feel like the last episode of Red Dwarf will be filmed from Craig Charles deathbed when he's 100 years old lol

[–] T156@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (2 children)

It's weird to think that Enterprise is technically retro now, not that new upstart that people dislike.

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

Hey now, Strange New Worlds has been very good... ;)

NBC is rebooting BSG for the second time. They should lean into that 90s nostalgia and reboot Earth 2 instead. I really enjoyed that show.

[–] negativenull@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It was a spectacular (if short) show. Clancy Brown and Tim Curry were awesome.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The worldbuilding alone made it worth watching.

[–] negativenull@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

It was filmed in New Mexico, which is stunningly beautiful (and not well enough known).

[–] sirboozebum@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Anybody remember Space, Above and Beyond?

[–] negativenull@lemm.ee 25 points 2 years ago (3 children)

That 70s Show is closer to the 70s than to now

[–] metaStatic@kbin.social 29 points 2 years ago (1 children)

if back to the future was made today Marty would go back to the 90s and play Smells like teen spirit at the dance.

Kurt, it's Dave. Your friend, Dave Grohl. You know that new sound you're looking for? Well, listen to this!

[–] metaStatic@kbin.social 10 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I've been making this joke for so long that the timeline doesn't line up anymore. Quick, who made it big in the LATE 90s?

[–] Deceptichum@kbin.social 8 points 2 years ago

Hi, my name is what? my name is who?

My name is chikka-chikka Slim Shady.

Limp biscuits?

If we made a show about 20 years ago, it would be called "That 2000's show."

God dammit, everybody in this thread shut up!

[–] DharmaCurious@startrek.website 11 points 2 years ago

You're a dirty lying liar face liar. Go wash your mouth out with the sonic shower!

At every second of every day, you are the oldest you have ever been.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Sure, with that attitude.

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Hey.

Shut up.

Found Benjamin Button's account

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Or from the other side, for every single living thing that has ever existed, at one point it was younger than you are right now. Many of them died younger than you are right now.

And a bonus one: yesterday is just as much as gone as the Roman Empire's time is.

[–] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

further comment implying I don't work that way.

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

How dare you.

[–] MrJameGumb@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Even crappy shows that we think of as "modern" are getting pretty old now... The Real World just turned 31 lol

[–] Ross_audio@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

16 years ago The Wire was approaching it's finale and Breaking Bad just premièred.

Time passes.
