One Of The Reasons I Love The Apple Is Because When Spock And Chekov Fight You Can Absolutely Tell It’s

Hot Take: the reason why 'Lower Decks' (and 'The Orville') "feel more like Star Trek" than do 'Discovery' or 'Picard' is because the baseline for American drama series has gotten so dark over the last twenty years that a tone matching 90s Star Trek can now only be achieved by marketing it as a comedy.

And yes, when you think about it, that's...kind of sad.

the way Spock keeps glancing at McCoy and Christine just proves to me that in private he does show his emotions and that includes when he and Jim are alone

i wish we could see Jim’s reaction to Spock’s little outburst

Tumblr needs to get into Greatest American Hero. It’s got everything:

• two guys who become best friends

• one of them is a school teacher for troubled high school kids and he’s really passionate about helping them

• the other has an endless supply of ridiculously random sayings

• magic suit which they immediately lose the instructions to

• cheesy 80s special effects

• amazing theme song

Please I’m begging you guys, watch the show and then post your amazing and hilarious things so I can like and reblog them

“I’m sorry, I’ve gotta be honest, I didn’t join Starfleet to get in phaser fights. I signed up to explore, to be out in space making new discoveries, and peaceful, diplomatic solutions. That’s boldly going. And you know what? I’d love to be in a string quartet. I loved that when Riker was on the Enterprise he was out there jamming on the trombone, and catching love disease, and acting in plays, and meeting his identical transporter clone Thomas. That stuff may not seem as cool as what you guys do, but it’s Starfleet. All the way.”

You would too if these were your coworkers

stop loafing around, we’ve got a whole universe to explore.
