OTD, the first day of filming on #StarTrek, ever: Cameras start rolling on "The Cage" as they shoot the scene where Dr. Boyce makes martinis for himself and Captain Pike in Pike's quarters. "Sometimes a man'll tell his bartender things he'll never tell his doctor."

Sometimes I think Star Trek VOY writers would challenge each other by saying
'What's the most ridiculous thing you can think of?' and answers were like
'Warp 10 turns people into horny salamanders' or
'Dinosaurs developed Warp Drive and crossed the galaxy'
This stuff makes 'Spock's Brain' look good.

I have a calendar that tells me what #StarTrek episodes were first shown on that day. If I need something to put on TV while I do stuff, or to watch, I put on that day's Star Trek.
Today's Star Trek is 'Carpenter Street' and 'Awakening' ENT
'Star Trek IV The Voyage Home' Movie

There was a pizza place in my hometown growing up, and today I found out it's still there, 50+ years later. Making the same pizza.
It's nice to know some things stay the same when most things keep changing.

Fans seem to generally think of Enterprise as one of the less good Star Trek shows, but Season 1 of ENT had more good episodes than Season 1 of TNG oe DS9, and maybe more than both combined.
It's not my favourite Trek, but I think it's generally underrated, and there are some really good episodes.

Today's Star Trek is
There's no Today's Star Trek, so I'm watching 'The Andorian Incident' ENT

I take out the trash for the building, been doing it for 12 years.
The 3 times I didn't do it are remembered more than the hundreds of times I did do it.
You don't know how many times people tell me 'Trash is today' as if I forget all the time.
People suck sometimes.

I'm playing Age of Calamity, and near the beginning, you fight a Guardian.
When I finally beat it, I said out loud to myself
"Yes, I feel e sense of accomplishment. This is a rewarding game."
I think that's the response they want.

It's not that important and probably doesn't really matter, but it really annoys me when people who claim to be experts on the lore of a game or show will go on youtube to talk about their topic of 'expertise' and they mispronounce the names of main characters that they have heard said out loud.

I feel like TOS, TNG, SNW are 'core Star Trek' and others are 'Star Trek modified'
TAS ST animated
VOY ST Lost in Space
DS9 ST at war
ENT ST before ST
DIS ST but faster
LWD ST but funnier
PRO ST for young people
PIC ST nostalgia
STA ST at school

Some Star Trek fans will argue endlessly about what type of currency the Federation uses, despite characters in shows and movies literally saying that the Federation does not have money.

I think the best thing I heard about the new Star Trek movie being developed is that it's unrelated to other Trek series and shows.
Meaning a new crew and ship, no new character retconned into being related to a famous character, no one that we saw before for only one episode, all new.
Sounds good.

Babylon 5
My wife hasn't watched the show, but one day she sat down while I was watching it.
Londo and G'kar had a scene together, where Londo offers G'kar a drink, and wants him to sign a new treaty.
She couldn't take her eyes from the screen. She felt the emotion of the scene.
Brilliant acting.
