Paid Members Jazzy G Posted November 17, 2021 Author Paid Members Share Posted November 17, 2021 Presumably somebody is going to now set up a "watch star trek" streaming site like that watch wrestling one. This is dreadful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members air_raid Posted November 17, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted November 17, 2021 I hope this isn’t the end of all Trek on Netflix, I’m only into s2 of my Voyager rewatch. All these years later I still can’t figure out how I rate it. Depends on the episode probably. Some of the concepts are fantastic but I never learned to love the characters like I did TNG or to a lesser extent DS9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted November 17, 2021 Author Paid Members Share Posted November 17, 2021 They're all leaving soon I think, which is annoying because I could have gotten into watching DS9 while I recovered from my op. I'll get back on with House. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallicks Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 The region 2 DVDs of the 90s series are better quality than what was on Netflix anyway. I wonder if P+ will tart up DS9 or Voyager at all, given TNG has already had “the treatment” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Let's be honest though, Discovery has been shit, so it's no big loss. I've been rewatching the odd TNG episode in anticipation of it being removed soon anyway. The new era series are nothing like the TNG/DS9 era in terms of quality or rewatchability. Bring back episodical sci fi series please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The short bit that was crowdfunded for the documentary wasn't cheap. We can dream though. If they do, the chances of me subscribing to yet another streaming service would tick up a few percentage points. Maybe they could do what HBO did with B5, rescan the neg for full HD or 4K on the live action only shots, and upscale the VFX ones. It’s not ideal but it’s something.

Factotum Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Yeah, new Trek has been dog shit so I stopped watching Discovery, but it was nice to have DS9 and Voyager on there (the others I have the Blu Rays) for a watch. Paramount have long treated Trek shabbily. They don't understand what they have. The fact they hire people like Kirkman who is a talent-less hack to run in it says everything.

Merzbow Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 I tried giving that Lower Decks a go but fuck me it's just not funny, but I think it's more a case of the kind of humour I enjoy. I don't hate Discovery like many do but The Expanse is by far the king of sci-fi TV right now, it's not even close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Double post but I can't get over the new Federation President being that Nazi Helen Smith from The Man In The High Castle. Also, not a very good first episode starting with such a cringey Michael bit full of bad jokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Paramount, ya dipshits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
