The fact that people like TOS more than any of the other Star Trek series is proof that the general population has no media literacy, and that nostalgia is one of the biggest driving forces of the media we consume.
TOS is sexist, racist, and just plain bad. I grew up on it, but watching it as an adult has been genuinely terrible. The women wear less and less clothing each episode and the men constantly dismiss and interrupt the women. The plots are just... nonsensical, to say the least. People promised me subtle gay chemistry between Spock and Kirk, but everyone is just mean to Spock! It's painful to watch!! It's genuinely not a fucking shock that this show got cancelled! It sucks!
The only good things about the show are the unique music, the adorable sets, and vaguely anti-religious themes (except those few times the crew of the Enterprise is explicitly Christian). There are no other redeeming qualities.
I don't want to shame people for liking TOS... but come on, people! This is Tumblr! Why do people like this show!? It's such a right-wing show!!
Moral of the post: Stop watching TOS, go watch Enterprise. The 1st episode sucks, but the rest of it is some of the best fiction I've ever seen. Don't believe me? Watch season 2 episode 23.
#YEAAAAAHH yeah no#hate to break it to you but “its problematic boohoo you cant watch it just watch the new stuff only because I said so” is lame#its incredibly important to engage with media that isnt what we consider as modern day's “unproblematic”#op respectfully get your head out of your ass#you can prefer enterprise without shitting on tos#if this were a genuine criticism I dont think anyone would care as much as they do#but it isnt. op you dont seem to actually care about the message#you only care that its the inferior show#and you desperately look for any scrap of reasoning that makes you 'in the right'#but heres the thing. Enterprise isnt free from sin either.#no show withing the star trek media empire is#opinions are opinions but dont expect to get no backlash when you openly disrespect a show with as much impact as tos#also yeah I cannot believe tos could ever have been called RIGHT WING?#yeah the show that fought to stay on the air for being too progressive.... the one with the first multi-racial kiss on television.....#very.... conservative.... ahuh#ignoring the good things it did are just as lacking in media literacy as ignoring the bad things#goodnight everybody

It took a while, but Spock finally domesticated the doctor. Now he comes at his bidding.
(Still trying to teach him how to sit properly, though).

Hate it when cis people ask unnecessary and invasive questions like "are your experiments ethical?" And "where is that screamimg coming from?"

thinking about the star trek beastie boys paradox. the use of the hit song sabotage by the beastie boys in star trek (2009) raises many questions that go completely unanswered in the rest of the series. since the song is part of the scene and is being not only heard but intentionally played by captain kirk, this means that sabotage exists in the star trek universe. if this song exists, it implies that the remainder of the band’s discography also exists. but the issue here is that in several beastie boys songs, they directly reference star trek and its characters. examples include in intergalactic, where they mention “a pinch on the neck from mr spock”, or in the brouhaha, where they say “this is bones mccoy on a line to sulu.” the fact that captain kirk himself is listening to the beastie boys in this film and again, to one of their lesser known songs (a REMIX of body movin ON VINYL) in the sequel, gives the viewer an idea that he’s a pretty big fan of their music. does kirk simply not notice the fact that they’re literally talking about his friends and coworkers? they literally say HIS name in b boy bouillabaisse: stop that train. or am i meant to believe that he’s conveniently not heard some of their most popular music? intergalactic is their third top song on spotify. there’s no way he hasn’t heard it. is he just really really oblivious? or are the beastie boys just some sort of prophetic gods in this universe? director jj abrams, i applaud your music choices but by making the beastie boys canon in star trek you have opened up a whole can of worms and i don’t intend on letting you rest until you solve this mystery for me. WHAT IS THE TRUTH!
