Really cool project!

I have mixed feelings towards SFA (as I have with any Star Trek show), but they really should give these new experimental shows some time to find their groove.

I still wonder what ENT would have become if it had gotten the full seven seasons …

Nice colors!

I gotta learn darning at some point …

Hell yeah! Now i want to see Jay-Den with an eyepatch like Catalina Creel from Cuna de lobos

Hey Karim! Thank you for your work on SFA, really enjoying the show!

Star Trek has done a bunch of genre-bending episodes (mostly on the holodeck), like noir-type crime stories, medieval costume dramas, or western adventures. If you could chose: What genre/setting would you like to put Jay-Den into?

I think the key message is about letting other people enjoy things even if you personally don’t. I like Star Trek but if there are no good new stories to be told, I’m ok with there not being any more new Star Trek. We’ll always have the old stuff.

Communities that are just build around vocally disliking something (based on taste) are usually not the greatest places.

I’m currently rewatching DS9 so I enjoyed this episode thoroughly. The show’s really growing on me.

I’d love to know if it actually resonates with audiences in the age group our cadets are in.

And Tawny Newsome as Professor Illa (last name redacted) was a treat!

I like seeing the personal growth of these characters kicking in early. And that we don’t only focus on Caleb. When’s my Jay-den episode coming?

And while I didn’t think I‘d like the post-burn setting, it gives our characters a reason to reiterate what Star Fleet and the Federation stand for. In the classic shows, there wasn’t really a reason so argue what the federation is supposed to be (because it was objectively extremely successful the way it was). I enjoy seeing our characters rebuilding this utopia.

There is an actual RFC for “IP over Avian Carriers with Quality of Service” that was released on April fools day 1999.

There are some fantastic diagrams in there:

I can recommend the Janeway autobiography by Una McCormack! She also wrote the Spock autobiography.

Was that Patton Oswalt as a Vulcan? Maybe he’s Sybok! And Rhys Darby looks like he could be playing Trelane.

From the new(ish) Star Trek shows I really liked Lower Decks and mostly liked Strange New Worlds and the last season of Picard (you can watch that season on its own, especially if you’ve watched TNG).

I have mixed feelings about Enterprise, but would recommend it as well. It’s only 5 seasons, so …

TV has also changed a lot since the TNG-era, so if you like the vibe of those shows, I’d recommend checking out other sci-fi shows from that time.

All of that is highly subjective of course.
