Blake

Is there any particular reason La Forge was left out of this poll? Seems like a glaring oversight of best bro.

I'm a huge fan of the Vitriolic Best Buds trope, so Odo and Quark get my pick here. With that in mind, I feel like a special mention needs to be given to ENT's Malcolm Reed and Hayes. I know a few people who felt it was just a silly conflict overall (Starfleet vs MACO), but I've been in RL situations where I've seen (experienced) misunderstandings that devolve into this kind of paranoid desire for control over what people believe belongs to them. The stupidity of the conflict on Enterprise hghlights a human element -- because sometimes we do dumb stuff, and we don't realise it until later

Vulcan has a hot climate. That's the only winning factor for poor constantly-cold Blake.

Remind me again who holds these guys accountable?

Have fun watching, US. Australians still don't have a release platform announced.

VOY's Lineage. I feel like it's constantly overlooked. Yes, it lacks (quite deliberately) 'heart-warming' moments, but it's an important discussion about acceptance in our (and Trek's) society today.

Prepare the younguns: Another animated series for Star Trek is on its way, due 2021.

As colourful as always.

I like Jeff Russo -- he did some extraordinary work on What Remains of Edith Finch... but his Star Trek work has been fairly underwhelming. Discovery's main theme is hardly what I'd consider 'iconic', and Picard unfortunately latched on to that one episode with his flute and stuck to that concept. Both fairly impressive compositions, but ultimately too 'air-y' and constantly warrant a skip. That said, they're not to the level of Faith of the Heart. At least he's ahead of something.

Am I excited? YOU BET YOUR VULCAN MIND I'M EXCITED IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING PEOPLE I CAN FINALLY STOP SENDING LONG-WINDED EMAILS TO THE TREK GODS

Ukinix is about two more "can you hear me?"s away from taking a long walk out of a short airlock, and it shows.

Damn it.

I play with the idea of a police procedural a little in my pre-Veritas sims. I would love to have a Starfleet officer sent to go assist the fixer-upper of Nimbus III on screen. I think something like that would eat my time away, tbh.
