    Are you forgetting you’re talking about the series where:

    • Humpback whales were a central plot point in one of the movies
    • Dr. Crusher had a sexual relationship with a ghost
    • Paris and Janeway were mutated into lizards, had sex with each other, and gave birth to babies
    • It’s canonical that people need to clean up the bio-filters for holodecks (leave that one to the imagination)
    • Data, a robot, manages to get laid a couple of times
    • Q’s method of testing humanity is basically trolling the entire TNG crew every single time he appears
    • SNW had a literal fantasy episode in S1
    • Fucking James Moriarty from Sherlock Holmes was a recurring villain in TNG enough times to show up in Picard

    Like… my guy, Stark Trek has always had an element of camp and being a goofy-ass series. It has a lot of thoughtful and contemporary dialogue in a lot of the episodes, yes, but you can’t say stuff like the SNWxLD crossover (which, as somebody who has never watched LD and grew up with TNG & DS9, I thought was pretty good) and the next couple of episodes are straying from Star Trek as a whole. Why do you think a lot of Trek fans would consider GalaxyQuest as an honorable Star Trek film?
