/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Fun will now commence.

Been low-key nostalgic enough to ponder giving this show a rewatch. Wonder if it aged well. Felt wholesome enough at the time, but I was just a wee lad.

I've been watching bits of it on YT. Still funny, but some of the shine has worn off IMO.

I watched it for the first time recently. In my opinion you can tell its age but it's certainly good entertainment still.

RGS taught me everything I need to know about Canada, marriage, tinkering with explosives and friendship.

It's still going as a podcast. And, yeah, it holds up, for those of us with a taste for it.

Everyone I know who doesn't enjoy it today never enjoyed it before.

"You mean it didn't get better in all that time?!"

"I mean ... Did anyone expect us to?"

(Roughly quoted from the podcast, haha.)

I went to see him live a few years ago. I hadn't watched the show in years but have fond memories.

Was a great show, the audience was almost exclusively 50+ guys (so I was an outlier) and the audience participated just like it was a live audience during filming. Goofy, absolutely, but it was good fun.

I don't have the episodes but it's on my list to grab the collection eventually.

The "Winter of Discount Tent" skits alone are worth the time. It's good fun.
