With our Melora reaction hitting YouTube today, I thought it was a good time to again share this video we made last year that explains why we started Star Trek and what we love about it. 4 more tv seasons & 1 movie of Trek later it’s all still true!

I found it very interesting that a lot of people claim to not like Melora. A bit of me was thinking it was due to people hedging their bets and thinking you guys wouldn't enjoy it and preemptively jumping on the hate bandwagon. For me, this explains why people weren't saying what they hated about it. I'm with you guys, I think Melora was really good as a self-contained episodic TV show.

Target Audience

You’re probably right, but writing a Patron Take based on what they think our opinion will be is NPC behavior 💀

you guys are so great! i knew most of what you explained, but still found it enlightening and entertaining - in addition to your friendship, what i like best about your channel is your intelligent, coherent explanations and reviews - also your enthusiasm - and it doesn't hurt that i agree with you re Wrath of Kahn - lol - take care

Would be great to know what your backstorys are. How you met? Do you have day jobs? How do you find time to watch all this stuff? Etc.... Just a thought 🤔

Josh played the flute, Alex played the piano, it was love at first sight.

They met on Grindr, and they were only 16. They became friends when their crime spree took off. After that settled down, and the statute of limitations had passed, Josh settled down too. That's when the group hangovers hit.

Sharing this journey with you has been quite an adventure. A little sliver on the yardstick of my life. Thank you so much for being there..

I came into this journey with you all in the third season of TNG, first on YT, then on Patreon (in the fourth season). I’m planning on going back and watching the reactions beginning with “The Man Trap” up to when I started watching the full reactions with you in TNG season 4. I’m a lifelong Trekkie since around 1974/1975 when I was in first grade and the Animated Series is on. So, it’s exciting to re-experience this entire journey again with you guys.

Read it as "TAS Star Trek Journey" and was wondering why we're back to The Animated Series again...

When you made this last year who would have thought that you would by now know so much about Cardassians and Bajorans, two words you'd never even heard of at the time, well obviously us as fans we knew you would, but you couldn't have imagined it lol.

I was 10 in 1990 when my mum first got me into Star Trek, she'd loved it since she was a teenager when it was first on tv. TOS was just beginning another rerun on UK terrestial tv at the time. I actually saw The Cage first, before The Man Trap the following week. I gradually got into the later shows but not in order, first Voyager, then DS9, then TNG, and more recently the other shows.

I will always think of you guys as one of the highlights of my retirement. I enjoy spending time with friends and family, working my funky part time job in New York's West Village, yet I always get a little thrill when I get my notification that you've dropped another reaction. Even when I can't stand the episode, like the most recent Paradise, I enjoy hearing what you guys have to say and maybe appreciate things just a little bit more because of it. Here's to ya!

@7:17 I might add a disclaimer to your position on knowing things the characters don't know. Alfred Hitchcock's infamous 'Time Bomb Under the Table' scenario can build amazing tension, because the viewer does know the bomb is there, is ticking and can go off, but the characters don't. But that scenario has to be done extremely well for it to pay off. Pity they didn't use it better in 'Elaan of Troyius', but it could be very dramatic if done well..
