By updated you mean the one that was released on DVD all those years ago or is there a new version? Either way, I completely agree that the Director cut is very nice.

Nice, my rower is in the utility room far from any tv … might be time to change this…

I’m not watching anything 😭 have to use the time slot for exercise instead now.

Yeah, it’s a great show

The swing from the last episode to this is crazy. I enjoy a good backstory, but was hoping there would have been something more interesting on the side quests. Maybe at the academy there is some systems failure and they have to camp outside idk… our maybe the wedding starts and there is a murder they need to solve… Anything… Backstory stuff is ok, but when the seasons are only like 10 episodes, I’m not sure they are with it.

Overall, yes I enjoyed this episode. Would i slip it on rewatch, likely.

I’m hoping they are more a Beverly Picard style where they want to, but don’t.

Vita coco extra coconut is my jam

Thanks for all the hard work on the new show! 🖖

I like star trek starfleet academy for the most part. What I don’t like about the show is that I can’t watch it with my kids yet.

Agreed

I though the main criticism of the new shows was the lack of lighting? I really miss the lighting in the older shows… :(

You can get by with just watching a few of the movies from the original series cast. If you want to get more back story then watch the show. There are episode lists for the original series that likely make it more digestible, but if you watched ds9, did you try to watch “The trouble with tribbles”? That’s the episode the ds9 cast goes to.

I like enterprise over strange new worlds.

I think being a trekkie is not black and white. There are levels of fandom you will likely never reach, which of fine. I consider my self a Trekkie by the definition of I’ll watch nearly anything star trek related (sorry the new kids show is a pass) and will get excited when i can talk to anyone about star trek.

Good luck on your journey!

While I love a good debate episode of start trek, this one was a missed opportunity to make parallel to some current event. Good otherwise and agree with others that the end was eh, but I’ll take it.

First episode was a bit rough at the start, but the second and third are pretty decent. While this isn’t really trekking beyond the campus right now, I just wonder where this show will go at it progresses.

Episode three is definitely strong (so far) and keeps pace with the end of episode two. I like that there are a few extras on the team at the end of the episode. Are we getting some red shirts ready? 😃

I’ll be watching for more. 👍

My interest was lost in the Holo deck episode and I havent been back. Does that episode get better?

My kid lost interest in the show, never got far enough to see the others.

Yes, yes i am.

Omg, i just watched this trailer. …

There is a Q episode in My Little Pony, it’s not half bad.
