Star Trek: The Original Series

I think I know what you mean. Still, I'm excited to watch a Star Trek story executed with a large budget.

I started watching TOS during last year's Easter and now I'm continuing this year's Easter by watching the animated series, which is the sequel to the original series. The show has a lot of the same writers and some of the episodes were cancelled episodes from the original series, so the writing is familiar and great. All of the returning characters are performed by the same actors, which is great, however, there is a severe lack of voice actors for one of characters as Dohan voices modt of them. The animation is dreadful though and is the crutch of the series. To say that it's cheap is a major downplay. I still think it's worth watching as there are great stories worth watching here like Yesteryear and More Tribbles, More Troubles of the ones I've seen so far.

Spirit Bomb how do you feel about TOS? It's a series that focuses on preserving life and nature, and it's a science fiction franchise.

I never bothered investing any time in Star Trek either as a teen or as an adult because there have always been a bajillion other TV/film series that interest me more, and plus I can see how ignorantly the creators of Star Trek treat the environmental impact of the technology featured in the series, so therefore I'm never going to watch it. I'm fed-up with science fiction that glamorizes technology, space travel, and exoplanetary colonization. The people who write these series are all materialistic, ignorant, first world idiots who always gloss over the negative effects technology has on plants, animals, and even human beings.

Hey Balder, were drunk when you made that post? Did you miss the part where I said I have never watched much Star Trek? Obviously I don't know anything about it if I haven't watched it, shithead. Besides, it's just science fiction that was written in the 60s. Only a regressive pig like you would defend a science fiction series from the 60s as being "environmentally progressive". Space dramas like Star Trek never have any credibility in regards to environmental science. They have nothing to do with reality and only exist to entertain the masses.

It's progressive but not in the way you're thinking of.

See, it was revolutionary back in the 60's. It may have had an American captain, but it also had a sexy negro female communications officer, a Japanese, a Russian (during the cold war! Which suggested that Americans and Russians could be friends!), a Scotsman engineer and a Vulcan.

TNG had a French captain, a Tactics/Security officer who was fa Klingon, plus an android science officer and a black engineer with some cool eyewear, but that's it.

Oh, DS9 has Captain Sisko, who's black but his fans are saying he's the best Star Trek Captain, regardless. Captain Janeway from Voyager was a woman, but that series was as strong as the others.
