[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 week ago (1 child) I'm a life long trek fan and I still haven't been able to watch more than a handful of TOS episodes permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] spip@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (1 child) It's honestly my favourite to revisit. I'll put on TNG episodes that I love, but TOS is the one where I can throw on any episode and have a good time in one way or another. I love the balance of retro camp paired with that era's version of the philosophical stuff the show is known for. And the colours on the bluray pop so much more. I love the later shows (tbf I'm still only on DS9), but I do find TOS to be the most visually pleasant to look at. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Repelle@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago Agreed. TOS has so much greatness. Episodes do such an amazing job of setting up a mystery and then exploring why [mysterious thing] is. Like the setup of Lost but with an actual payoff for watching. I also think it has the best pacing of any of the series except maybe DS9. Episodes have more time to breathe. permalink fedilink source parent
