Every now and then a review, commentary, or in this case retrospective goes a bit too long to use as a filler article post. The only exception I’ve made is Jay Exci’s breakdown of everything wrong with Chris Chibnall’s time on Doctor Who, and that’s because if you can find four hours of content and the comedy is only a small part of it, it’s worth showing.

Tonight’s video is not that long, only about an hour and a half. While not a story itself, it is a good way to introduce Stam Fine Reviews to you guys, as it goes over the history of Star Trek: The Next Generation. As of this writing his look at the first season is up on his YouTube channel, but he started with this overview of the entire series, briefly touching on the movies and Deep Space Nine due to it’s connection to TNG. Sadly he kind of looks down on the Filmation series from the clips he used but everyone makes mistakes. He’s also looked at the original series and the movies (not the animated series because he doesn’t review any animation, the poor sap) and both Voyager and Enterprise if you want to check that out.

Also, for those of you who come here due to the limited use of swearing, he does that thing where he censors the f-bomb but not the s-bomb because nobody understands why South Park talked Comedy Central into letting the latter go to make their point to both sides of the discussion on cursing on television. Look, YouTubers, either censor both or censor neither, but please choose lane. Hollywood, too, but they’re a lost cause at this point. Enjoy.

    Star Trek has been a profitable tentpole franchise for Paramount, but fatigue was clearly setting in with the 3 concurrent tv series. Perhaps a reboot of the series will limit the output of the beloved universe and its citizens.

    • I think the problem with DS9 was that it skewed too close to Babylon 5 and became less Star Trek to me. Other fans may disagree. Voyager has a whole host of issues with how it approached stuff. SF Debris can explain that better than I can because I dropped out eventually.

      Unless you’re talking about the current Paramount+ stuff, in which case three concurrent is the least of their problems.
