@@The_Egg21 Hmmmm if this was a year ago I would absolutely agree 100%......but in 2020 Idk, humanity has surprised me in their show of collective empathy (for the most part) and as I remember in Star Trek it took "The Bell Riots" and the violence that followed due to oppression on a marginalized group of people that caused change(in Star Trek America it was Homeless people forced in "Sanctuaries") maybe in OUR America this could be the moment in history people and society as a whole could change?

A Brief Note on Star Trek Canon: I know many of you don't like Discovery and Picard, and personally I agree that the shows are disappointing and poorly written. But at the same time I can't simply say they don't count as canon. As far Alpha Canon is concerned, it applies to all shows and movies. Including the JJ Abrams movies, Discovery and Picard. In order to avoid stumbling over the inaccuracies and changes made by newer Trek, this channel will avoid talking about them in detail, and only mention them when absolutely necessary. I will also be exclusively basing my drawing on classic Star Trek (TNG-ENT). So just to be clear, the following IS considered Alpha Canon on this Channel The Original Series The Animated Series The Next Generation Deep Space Nine Voyager Enterprise The Motion Picture The Wrath of Khan The Search for Spock The Voyage Home The Final Frontier The Undiscovered Country Generations First Contact Insurrection Nemesis KELVIN TIMELINE - Alternate Universe Star Trek Into Darkness Beyond Discovery Picard

[@aeigdiusflaviusquintus1337]

Hmm, I really applaud you for clarifying what counts as canon, I say this as I feel that people oftentimes don’t go into what counts as “canon”.

[@aeigdiusflaviusquintus1337]

P.S. - Also, Are you gonna cover any Lore regarding the political situation of the Romulans in the Current Canon?

[@shawnchong5196]

Please put "disclaimers" on anything shown on discovery (which is absolutely the worst) and Picard (which is second worst) that totally screw up everything that Gene Roddenberry created. (Even Star Trek: ENT was at least acceptable) My opinion is that Discovery and Picard written by Kurtzman should not be considered as canon, it's a pile of warm dog poo, and no respectable trekkie fan would accept garbage from this director as canon, because he doesn't even know trek, and if he says he does, he's gotta be the worst dumbass in the world, tbh. imho, at minimum, should have a disclaimer. It's just not based on Star Trek, it's just BS.

[@Jesse__H]

@@shawnchong5196 That's more vitriol than any of this deserves. Discovery is also my least favorite Trek show (haven't watched Picard yet), but it does a number of interesting things, and even a few things I came to respect, over the course of the first season. But for me, major departures like Discovery don't need to threaten the value of original Trek, and hating them (rather than just disliking them) seems unnecessary. Plus if new Trek shows start to piss you off too much, you can always just watch some Orville to calm down ;-)

[@shawnchong5196]

@@Jesse__H Sorry Jesse, looks like you are a mindless drone with no strong opinions on anything. I can hold my views that STD absolutely is shit. The show a travesty to everyone that has any ounce of trek in them, except ones that are shallow and stupid. Yes I said it: SHALLOW AND STUPID I don't give two shits for your passive-aggressive tone, the worst thing in life is to meet a shitty person that likes to use this passive-aggressive attitude to lesson a view over, another's view (some covert bullshit): you can hold any view you want. You can like STD, and I will say outright that if you like it, then you are not a real star trek fan, who actually watches the show for the humanity, moral lessons, and introspective views into culture, mankind and mistakes we make time and time over again. Instead, STD is an STD of SJW bullshit themes (as with Picard, from the idiot kurtzman). STD sucks balls. 0/10. It's a travesty to Trek universe. Even ENT was bearable, it was just boring, imho, esp. in the last season, as they know it was going to be cancelled (the production crew). It was just boring, but it didn't just outright suck balls like STD. So as Eminem would say "fuck him (Kurtzman) and fuck you too". PS: This is what you would call, vitriol..., not my previous comment. So get your shit together, and stop your fucked up passive-aggressive attacks. haha, fucking vitriol. BTW, I watch Orville, you asswipe. (Again, GTFO with your passive-aggresive shit). PPS: I didn't say this isn't cannon, I just think it's cannon that screws up the trek universe with their dumb story line, and stoopid SJW ideas which are built on by a guy that thinks star trek is star wars (again, I say with conviction, and vitriol: screw Kurtzman) and *shouldn't be* considered cannon. BTW^2: It's so stupid that you have people like Jessie, using the fucked up statement: watch orville, and calm down - fuck I want to watch trek, I want to love it, as do millions of trekkies and others who are die-hard fans: but it's so bad - CBS and Viacom screw you (CEO sucks balls) for your executive decisions and harm you've done to star trek with your damn corporate greed.

I like that the arrival of the whale probe and v’ger had seemingly almost no effect on the federation, nobody is like “hey remember when we found out whales are actually super-intelligent beings that just chill out in the ocean and make music”

Hopefully the protocol was removed after that incident

[@ikking9041]

Hurrah! A new video!

[@Zeithri]

mfw Ambassador Class, USS Enterprise-C 1701 was forgotten ;-; Kirk and Archer will remain my favorite captains. Kirk for his damming of the prime directive, stating " _The people might be changed by the experience but it's certainly better than death._ " proving his desire that everyone should live time and time again and that death is only the last outcome, not the only. And Archer, for being the first explorer of Starfleet, pushed into being a soldier that he never wanted to be as he only wanted to explore the galaxy. In TNG, hands down my favorite is Data. Always will be, always shall be.

Garak is where it's at

[@Ved000000]

The last time I was this early, Picard and Q were talking about amino acids.

[@dragonweyr44]

9:20 you forgot Enterprise C which was an Ambassador class ship

[@corywilliams2255]

Thank you.

[@GeminiBull]

the Ambassador class ship was considered an ok ship, but didn't preform the way they expected. so not including it i would say was the right thing to do. though the Enterprise C did go down fighting, earning the respect of the klingons.

[@gameroach81]

Hate to nitpick @10:15 Top right, ~ Klingons eventually joined the Federation. Do you mean as a species or just Wolf joined? I dont remember them (as a species) ever joining, but I could be wrong as I dont follow non-canon, again, I could be wrong and just not as smart as I think I am. lol

[@CivilizationEx]

Klingons as a species joined the Federation, and that is canon, but it happened far into the future. This was revealed during an episode of ENT when Archer was taken to the future.

[@gameroach81]

@@CivilizationEx I seem to be wrong. I am rewatching TNG, "Samaritan Snare" when Picard and Wesley are in the shuttle talking about Picards heart condition, Wesley asks "Was this before the Klingons joined The Federation" and Picard says "Yes". So the Klingons joined after Picards heart stabbing and before TNG started. WOW, all this time I thought they were just allies. Maybe because I see being allies and actually being part of the Federation different.

Can we all agree that discovery and picard shouldn't be cannon?

[@franciscomm7675]

Just because some people don't like them, that doesn't mean that they shouldn't be considered canon. If a portion of a fandom of a franchise could just declare part of said franchise non-canon, all fandoms would suffer a "civil war"

"The need for material wealth gone" that is totally false when they covet "real" food over replicated food.

[@flyingfoamtv2169]

replicated food is only served on starships and these ships in question have cooks and only replicate food in dire circomestances.

[@torynnielsen5646]

@@flyingfoamtv2169 hmm that's odd because I've seen episodes where they have replicators on planets like Earth or space stations. Sure Voyager did the real food thing with Neelix but that was just to save power when you cant just refuel at your nearest federation outpost.The NX Enterprise cooked food because they did not have replicators.

[@flyingfoamtv2169]

@@torynnielsen5646 what i mean is that there is an ulimmited supply of real food unless you are on a starship, in that case the hidroponics would not be enough to gwor real food fir the whole crew outisde of special occasions.
