Jokey, low-brow, but surprisingly lighthearted and admiring of canon comedy show being "canon" vs. grisly, grimdark, largely defiant of canon aside from the stuff it mines for nostalgia being "canon"…
Can we just seal the two in a negative magnetic corridor to fight each other for eternity, blow up their only way out, and just try to forget about it?

SULU: But their franchise is dead. Does it matter now which one's right? SPOCK: Not to the fans. All that matters to them is their hate. UHURA: Do you suppose that's all they ever had, sir? KIRK: No, but that's all they have left. Warp factor two, Mister Sulu. Set course for Starbase Four.
first contact is still my favorite star trek movie, even though the whole borg story line with action picard isn't all that interesting, the actual first contact time travel is and the music is just great, and hit me right in the feels every time I see or here it.
I don’t know what to think of Lower deck, it’s fun and animation like Futurama but set in Star Trek. It doesn’t take it self seriously and has loads of inside nods to past trek show. the oddest thing is it does kinda make fun of some Trek stuff, wich feel like it attacking it’s own fan base. But out of the nu Trek it’s not too bad.
Part of First Contact's plot was how sanitised Cochrane's image had become in the 24th century (& earlier). It was a surprise for them to find he was kind of an asshole. So I don't think it's quite right for the music & his style to have made it to Lower Decks. Really I think that monument should make out like Cochrane was a stoic visionary.
Wait. Isn't this show just another Star Trek in name only run by the social justice cult? Why the credit for accuracy in what they are defiling? and why the hell would the historical site be a bloody amusement park?
Somehow before Picard season 3 Lower Decks was Star Trek show under Kurtzman that tried the most. I mean it did not succeed but it kinda tried at least.
As a Spanish, this "First Contact Museum" reminds me (a bit) of the Wharf of the Caravels in Palos de la Frontera (Huelva, Andalucía, Spain), which is a museum dedicated to Columbus' first travel in 1492 (and the discovery of America), even featuring live-size replicas of the three Caravels (well, actually, one Carrack and two Caravels) that made the trip: the Santa María, the Pinta, and the Niña. You can go inside and all that, but they don't actually make travels. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wharf_of_the_Caravels
What I get from these comments is there are a lot of people who take Star Trek way too seriously….I mean did anyone actually think the original series with Harry Mudd and Tribbles episodes was supposed to be a drama? Whats wrong with a show that doesn't take its self too seriously?

Jesus Fucking Christ, every other line in this show is "Hey look it's (reference)"
Happy First Contact day

All modern Trek has now are member-berries of better things that came before, completely bereft of new and quality ideas.

Lower decks have a star trek heart
You can tell the writers actually cared.
Unlike other shows and unfortunately with the mandalorian now (season 3).

I wish I was Levar Burton
I enjoy lower decks. It's not real star trek, it's more of fan art or fan fiction. From that angle ill take it!
But I sure wish someone would bring back Gene Roddenberrys position.
Well the traumatised boy was right.

God I hate lower decks. don't know why everyone likes it but that thing is mockery to star trek…
🤦♂
Please kill me😵
Is it me, or this is more of a parody of adult consoomers enjoying the Millennium Falcon ride at Galaxy's Edge?
Not really a fan of Star Trek, but I love Lower Decks.
lower decks can F right off!
Lower decks, the only one's to remember the source material.

Wow, a lot of hate for this show. I don’t get it, it’s a fun little show that’s like watching a trek trivia game.

I can't hate too much on Lower Decks. It seems to care more about getting details right than live action NuTrek shows.
Even Picard Season 3, which was great, drove me nuts with all it's Changeling inconsistencies.
I genuinely fell sad for Star Trek fans.
