Edit: Just finished and this one was actually really funny!

"Maybe you move TOO MUCH" lol

[–] Stamets@startrek.website 8 points 9 months ago

Agreed! I loved this one. This week and last week were great. Slowly stepped up in quality. I love how offended Scotty looked when Tendi pointed out his pupils are painted onto his skin.

Is it just me, or did they start with the worst one and get progressively better? Both last week and this week have been actually good

[–] eva_sieve@startrek.website 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

maybe they're doing the star trek thing of having bad/meh early episodes, just on a more compressed time scale. (yeah it's subjective, but I certainly liked these ones a lot more than the first ones).

I liked this one, just some wholesome series-to-series love wrapped up in a goofy package. A very Lower Decks feel. The Prodigy erasure continues to be a thing but I don't think that's ending anytime soon.

And if heavens forbid this is the last Star Trek thing George Takei does at least it's on the same fun retrospective note as he had in his Crisis Point II appearance.

The Prodigy erasure continues to be a thing but I don’t think that’s ending anytime soon.

There were Prodigy characters in last week's short...

[–] NuPNuA@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

Yeah, but at the end of each one it proudly announces that Animated Trek only consists of LD and TAS.

[–] jaelisp@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I agree. They should have led with this. Or maybe only did this.

Though I do feel like this and last week's were missing a punchline at the end.

[–] Kepabar@startrek.website 1 points 9 months ago

Neelix is all the punchline you need.

[–] ThrowawayInTheYear23@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Best short so far, which is very low bar to clear.

[–] jmp242@sopuli.xyz 2 points 9 months ago

Yea, that's kind of painful.

[–] JWBananas@startrek.website 1 points 9 months ago

Of all the episodes so far, this was certainly one of them.

Curse these wretched beats for actually making this one bearable.
