"How many space anomalies of the week can you really stomach? How many time paradoxes can you do? When I was studying the show, getting ready to work on it, I was watching the episodes, and the technobabble was just enervating; it was just soul sapping. Vast chunks of scenes would go by, and I had no idea what was going on. I write this stuff; I live this stuff. I do know the difference between the shields and the deflectors, and the ODN conduits and plasma tubes. If I can’t tell what’s going on, I know the audience has no idea what’s going on. Everyone will say the same thing. From the top down, you bring up this point, and everybody will say, ‘I am the biggest opponent of techno-babble. I hate technobabble. I am the one who is always saying, less technobabble.’ They all say that. None of them do it. I’ve always felt that you never impress the audience. The audience doesn’t sit there and go, ‘God damn, they know science. That is really cool. Look how they figured that out. Hey Edna! Come here. You want to see how Chakotay is going to figure this out. He’s onto this thing with the quantum tech particles; it’s really interesting. I don’t know how he is going to do it, but he is going to reroute something. Oh my God, he found the anti-protons!’ Who cares? Nobody watches STAR TREK for those scenes. The actors hate those scenes; the directors hate those scenes; and the writers hate those scenes. But it’s the easiest card to go to. It’s a lot easier to tech your way out of a situation than to really think your way out of a situation, or make it dramatic, or make the characters go through some kind of decision or crisis. It’s a lot easier if you can just plant one of them at a console and start banging on the thing, and flash some Okudagrams, and then come up with the magic solution that is going to make all this week’s problems go away."

But a lot of Star Trek fans actually do spend a lot of time sitting at console solving problems. We love technology and Okudagrams are beautiful artistic representations of the tactile interface with future technology we all dream about and want to see come into fruition. And it's NOT easy to make that kind of beauty, but writers did it a lot because it was fun.

God forbid Trek have any fun. No, gotta see the Captain be constantly stressed by losing everything every episode after giving earth a 9/11 style attack.

TNG > DS9 > ENT > TOS > > power gap > TAS > Star Trek: Beyond > VOY

why are ENT fans so insecure

Strange to see someone who likes TNG and DS9 so much hate VOY so hard. Give me Tuvok episode over Beyond any day.

I liked all the little things like showing the origins of red alert and stating what the M in M-Class means.

Enterprise threads are comfy
