Star Trek Social Club

I'm late to the party, but started Starfleet Academy last weekend and am up to episode 8. Absolutely loving it and regret not watching it as it aired so I could gush about it with the rest of you all. That also caused me to miss the AMA with Karim, and that saddens me more than you can ever know.

Trying to stretch those out, so mixing in some backlog of Family Guy, Bob's Burgers, and The Golden Girls. As soon as I have the time and attention span to start another new series, I'm gonna watch A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.

I’m on a rewatch of some other Roddenberry goodness, Earth: Final Conflict. I’m in season 2 now.

Non negligible amounts of plot holes looking back (and even at the time) but on the whole it holds up. I’m mostly watching it on a phone and I’m impressed at how good it still looks (most of the time).

If there's no new Trek, that means watching old Trek, right?

Trying to finish my full in-universe chronological franchise re-watch for the 60th anniversary, which means an average of maybe 75 minutes of watching Trek per day through September 8 if I want to get it to line up. I started back in April 2024, but there's a lot of Trek out there, and I'm already falling behind. (Ideally it would've been 58 minutes per day. This includes watching some episodes multiple times if they take place in multiple time periods.)

For what it's worth, we'll arguably get some new Trek soon whenever the "season finale" of Scouts comes out. 😂 Only one episode left if they don't get renewed.

I’m watching Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (M:LOM) which is in the midst of its second season on AppleTV.

And…my partner finally conceded to give the show a try. So, I’m rewatching season one with them. They say, based on being in the middle of season one that it’s the thing they’re enjoying most on tv just now.

While M:LOM does have creatures and kaiju battles, like the best Star Trek, the show’s emphasis is on its diverse characters and their stories.

The show has all the high quality we’ve come to expect of both AppleTV and Legendary Entertainment (Dune) science fiction productions.

M:LOM is designed as an entry point for those unfamiliar with the Monsterverse continuity or the 70+ year Godzilla franchise more generally. The action shifts back and forth between telling the stories of two generations: one in the mid 2010s and the other in the 1950s. It works well as it comes together at the end of season one.

If the show works for you, please check out our newest community https://startrek.website/c/monsterverse.

I don't know, maybe I'll give Babylon 5 another watch. It's been a while.

Going through a Star Trek Voyager rewatch from the beginning. I’ve done this with TNG and DS9 a couple of times and constantly rewatch those episodes. I’ve only gone through Voyager once and I don’t rewatch it much, so it’s kind of newish to me again.

Other than that, reading my Star Trek novels from the thrift store and borrowing Blu-rays from the library to rip into my collection. I really want to do a watch of X-Files again!

probably some star trek

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

I can't see anything through these tears. I'm in SFA withdrawl.

The Scrubs revival is surprisingly good, picking up like there hasn't been a 15-year gap since season 8*.

*Season 9 has been memory-holed.

I tried some time ago ST Prodigy and found too silly, I heard some encouraging comments about it and Im giving it another try. 6 episodes in Im enjoying it more than the last attempt.

Biding my time until Daredevil: Born Again drops season 2.

And waiting on For All Mankind season 5, but the trailer for it really didn't do anything for me so I'm not as pumped about its return as I've been in prior years.

I think tonight is going to be a Tron Legacy kind of night. I have phases where I watch it at least once a week and I think I’m entering one of those phases now.

I am caught up on invincible and and fallout.

If you haven’t watched knight of the seven kingdoms, I would highly recommend it

I was disappointed with Invasion because Sam Neill wasn’t a lead. I only got up to the penultimate of season 1.

What am I watching? Well it’s always Star Trek. Other than that, The Office Superfan Episodes. Also started Monsterverse.

im going to be watching tos in about 20 minuts followed by tng.

I just watched The Agency on Showtime. It was outstanding, and I didn't want it to end. I'm also thinking watching classic Doctor Who from the beginning.
