Last week’s episode of Nurse Who was fairly decent.

For once, the boss white male wasn’t the baddie.

I am a certified scifi nerd. For years I consumed anything and everything Trek.

I have not watched one single second of this, not even the opening or a trailer. I never will.

All the writers who insist on interjecting SJW crap and all the producers who tell them to do so need to take a flying leap off a tall building so they can get some real writers with real imaginations in there.

Just about every frickin’ drama show on TV has been ruined by these SJW freaks.

The original Star Trek came out in September 1966 and had such things as touch screens, communicators, tractor beams

And yet they couldn't put pockets on the uniforms, something they corrected in the movie versions of Star Trek. A future without pockets is a future I would hate.

My wife says that is why purses were invented.

The best new Star Trek on TV is called... “The Orville”.

Progressives doing what they did to Star Wars to Star Trek. No surprise here. Just one more thing to scratch off the “things to watch” list.

And backpacks? I like cargo pants, but don't wear them much as it's out of style. But I'd rather wear them than to carry a purse.

Any Lesbian relationships? Ruined Supergirl and Arrow. At least they waited until second season before introducing homosexuality.

I enjoyed watching Seth McFarlane’s “The Orville” more than I did ST:D. Oh, it’s far from perfect, too, but at least it’s light-hearted and generally fun, if silly. ST:D just rubbed me the wrong way for some reason - probably the fact that it just didn’t seem very “Star Trek”-like.

LOL - still wear cargo pants - I need the damn pockets. But some things don't go in a pocket:

I winced every now and then watching The Next Generation too. Not nearly as SJW as Discovery, but SJW for its day.

Let's be honest, so was the original series with Shatner and Nimoy. I'm not talking about the anti-racial stuff, I'm talking about the money-free socialism.

The show is named: STD for a reason...
I saw maybe 4 shows and thought it was lousy. It had the Star Trek name but not the spirit.

The cast all look disgusted and miserable. Not one character did I like. I stopped when they introduced that stupid engine that was not warp drive.

Capt Picard is getting his own show too.

98% negative.
Youtube reviews are the most brutal.

The monkey wrench is eternal. Even the Borg probably have one implanted somewhere.
