Welcome to a Star Trek community where you’re free to chat and share your opinions about all things Trek!

I want to have a place where fans can come to praise, discuss, and even criticise things in the Star Trek franchise. No show or movie is perfect, and I don't believe people should be silenced for having a dissenting opinion. That being said, there are still a few rules.

Be Nice - No personal attacks. You can disagree with someone's opinion, but it needs to stop there.

No Slurs - This is applicable to ethnicity, religion, gender, or anything else.

No Adult Content - Keep it family friendly.

No Spamming or Trolling - Consistently spamming comments or trolling is just not needed.

Please keep topics Trek related or Trek adjacent for the most part, and have fun!

For those of you eagerly anticipating the final season of Star Trek Discovery, you won’t have to wait long.

The 5th and final season will begin streaming on Paramount+ with episodes one and two on April 4th.

It’s likely to be one of only two new seasons of Star Trek in 2024 with Lower Decks season 5 expected in the summer. Strange New Worlds on the other hand is still filming for season 3 with that series not expected to return until 2025.

There’s also the Section 31 movie in the works and what you could call a Discovery spin-off in Starfleet Academy set in Discovery’s take on the 32nd century. Both aren’t expected until 2025 at the earliest.

Are you sad to see Discovery end and are you looking forward to more Kurtzman Trek?

Discovery has proven controversial with fans since it’s beginning in 2017 with many, including myself feeling that it strays too far from what makes Trek, Trek and largely ignored 50+ years of canon to make Star Trek appeal to a “modern audience.”

I'm not a fan of alternate timelines and parallel universes, but it's been kind of fun. I'm only through the first season so far though.

This post doesn't have any bias what so ever

I’ve never claimed to be unbiased.

There's nothing wrong be having an opinion, you could have written that post with just the facts and then at the end gone into your opinion and it would be quite a wonderful conversation starter.

Noted. I’ll keep that in mind next time. Thanks.

I’ve edited the post and I believe you’re correct. It does read better now.

The only good episode was the very first one.

I’m hyped for the very last episode so I can stop complaining about it on the internet
