/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.

Both! Cowboy Space Pimps from Venus!
Tell me you've got a creeper shuttle without telling me you've got a creeper shuttle.
A film by Bell Labs.
Pretty sure TOS was intended to be both...
FYI, no idea what he's saying. Just grabbed it from a Firefly screenshot.
If it's chinese then he's cursing.
Honestly I'd kinda love to see an MS3K episode of some old Trek
I think the best you'll get is Rifftrax doing Trek movies and Trek fan episodes. https://www.rifftrax.com/collection/star-trek
Were there any cheap knock offs of TOS attempted back in the day? I feel like there must have been but I'm sure if there had been I would have heard of them by now.
Closest I can come up with is the space satire Quark. It was created by Buck Henry, who co-wrote Get Smart. The biggest problem with doing a Trek rip-off was that back in the day, any special effects were incredibly expensive.
It's not very good. At least I don't think so. It's homophobic too.
Yes.
In my list, this was appearing directly under the post at the Iowa gay bar, and I wasn’t immediately sure which one I clicked on.
