/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

The third season was a skip forward to 2032 and it was somewhat better, but still pretty stupid.

Like they had an android character who was a great big guy but had a simple, child-like brain. What the hell was the point of that?

I didn't read that whole comment, because I don't want any spoilers as I might try this show as it's one of the rare 90's scifis I don't think I've seen.

[–] FlyingSquid 4 points 15 hours ago (14 children)

Trust me, don't. If you want mostly forgotten 90s sci-fi, there are so many better choices: Odyssey 5, Jeremiah, Earth 2, The Adventures of Briscoe County, Jr., Lexx.

Even animated ones like Invasion: America and Exosquad are better. Plus, Invasion: America has Leonard Nimoy in it!

Seriously, I would put Sliders above either SeaQuest DSV or SeaQuest 2032 and it sucked.

I think I missed Invasion:America. Know anywhere I could see it?

[–] FlyingSquid 1 points 1 hour ago

Yes! For some reason, it is on YouTube in two long parts rather than broken up into episodes:

There are two versions, a prime time version and a version edited down for kids. I believe this is the prime time version with a lot more violence.
