Riker = Horny, trombonist, scolds you for believing fake stories

Picard = Likes tea, traumatized by patio lights

Janeway = Murderous criminal

Sisko = The cooler murderous criminal

That about covers it.

Don't forget the suffering Irishman.

Also all characters of all Star Trek shows are portrayed by Jeffrey Combs only.

Don't forget

Emperor Philippa Georgiou = Ruthless mommy in BDSM attire.

Data = Pinocchio with dysfunctional family trauma

Geordie = "Nice guy" with holo-waifu

Ro Laren = The cool rebel with daddy issues

You forgot Janeway's coffee obsession and Data's obsession with stand-up comedy

You'll turn into us... slowly but surely. Sooner than later you'll think something looks really cool and then look it up on YouTube. You'll look up a few more clips then go "Eh, why not give this show a try." From there it's a slippery slope into bliss, my friend.

Welcome to the subspace fold.

This sub made me start on Star Trek TNG. I'm finishing the show up this week. I don't regret a single thing. Thank you Lemmy!

This is accurate because it's pretty much canon that Spock never watched a single episode of Star Trek either.

[–] Rooty@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago (4 children)

"Crew of Enterprise finds out they're characters in a TV show" sounds like a genuine concept for an episode.

[–] MartinXYZ@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 year ago (3 children)

... That's kinda upsidedown Galaxy Quest.

Posts from this community popping up from time to time was actually what pushed me to start watching a few weeks ago. So, a big thank you to you all!

I watched all seasons of The Orville. Does that count for anything?

[–] phorq@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That credit can be transferred as either the first season of Star Trek: Lower Decks or the Strange New Worlds Fantasy/Crossover/Musical episodes.

So many people chiming in that they haven't watched Star Trek.

You monsters.

Whatever you do, DON'T PROVOKE THE BORG

[–] Gork@lemm.ee 18 points 1 year ago

Seven of Nine: Skintight leotards.

Deanna Troy: Also skintight leotards, but less often.

[–] MisterChief@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I watched Picard's Flute at the recommendation of a friend 10+ years ago. I'm assuming every episode is as perfect. Never watched another episode. Welcome the the club.

It is because of this shit that I'm now finished with Discovery, Lower Decks, 5 episodes into SNW, 20 Episodes into ENT, and 1.75 seasons through TOS.

What an Inspiring place 🖖

Honestly, all the memes is what got me to start watching Next Gen, and I'm so glad I did.

Wow there are more if us than I thought

[–] StillPaisleyCat@startrek.website 11 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Posts like this reconcile me to the bad, infinitely-memed guy in a Gorn suit in TOS ‘Arena’.

OP can I recommend Star Trek: Lower Decks as your gateway … to the onscreen franchise. A logical place to start.

[–] pimento64@sopuli.xyz 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Say what you will about Shatner, and a lot of it will be perfectly true and highly applicable, but there are plenty longstanding pro wrestlers who wouldn't have committed as much as he did to selling the fuck out of each one of those glacial smacks.

Seriously, how do you have access to the internet and never see a single movie/episode?

[–] LolaCat@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (5 children)

I've also never seen Star Wars, GOT, or any Marvel/DC movies. I kinda just exist inside my own little bubble. Honestly I don't even know what's popular anymore lol

[–] enthusiasticamoeba@lemmy.ml 19 points 1 year ago

Don't worry, plenty of Trekkies don't know/care about what's popular either. That's why we're still making memes about a sixty year old series 🥲
