Which Star Trek ship would you like to serve on?

[TheFaerieQueene]

I love Star Trek and am looking forward to the new series Star Trek Picard on Amazon next week.

I’ve been thinking about which ship I would like to serve on. Tbh it is easy, Voyager!

I’m sure I’m not the only Trek fan (I’m not a Trekkie) here. Let’s see which is the most popular vessel.

Any bloody Cardassians out there can bugger off now.

Shaka, when the walls fell.

BEST EPISODE EVER!

BEST EPISODE EVER!

Second best;

There are 4 lights.

Star trek? Nah. Give me a trip on the Serenity any day!

That must be why it was so successful.

Enterprise D, naturally!

THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!

Love that episode. Patrick Stewart really got to show off the Shakespearean training!

Agreed wholeheartedly that Sir Patrick was remarkable in that episode.

Just for the Patrick Stewart appreciation society.

Discovery under captain pike but only as a science officer. I think that would be amazing, learning about the spore network and stuff.

Otherwise I'd like voyager, though I'd rather be under captain Picard than Janeway, she's ok but definitely makes some very risky decisions trying to get them home

I’m astonished that so many people are saying Voyager.

They’re marooned on the other side of the galaxy, with a captain who keeps getting the crew into trouble with risky decisions and unnecessary side trips to check out nebulas and the like. Plus you’d have to put up with Neelix and his infuriating inane chatter at almost every mealtime. And I know people have said that they get home eventually, but at the start, the Voyager crew’s all thinking it’ll take 70 years at best to get home.
No thanks!

Enterprise D and Picard for me.

But PureAlchemy, I’ve promised to throw Neelix out of the airlock!

Honestly, I’m a bit surprised that Neelix got all the way to the last series of Voyager without any nasty “accidents”, or without being “accidentally” marooned on an away mission.

He’s so very annoying. Surely they could have got another crew member to do some cooking?

THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS was definitely a showcase of British acting. David Warner was also phenomenally good. When you get two brilliant Shakespearean actors playing off each other like that... Pure magic!

I always wondered why Neelix never wound up in the Warp Core. Over 150 people. One of them surely would have done it. Lon Suder or Michael Jonas would have done it given the chance.

My favourite film was Star Trek VI Undiscovered Country because of the Shakespeare throughout. Also first I got to see at cinema and it was wonderful!!

I rather fancy the Discovery-era Enterprise - I like the way it's been casually remarked upon as being a new fashion/design choice, compared to normal. Not that the uniforms would suit a fat git like me, the Discovery ones seem a bit more forgiving (and reinforced). The Discovery itself - I prefer people to stay dead once they're dead. Maybe they should introduce a rule where anybody who comes back from the dead has to go on the next away mission wearing red?

I'd have become a murderer on Picard's and Janeway's ships. Too many simpering women. Oooh, I'm an empath, I eat chocolate and have big eyes. Not actually useful for anything else, I just get emotional. Or I'm a Mum who looks after people in sick bay because that's what women do. Whilst both either do or have previously fucked a more senior officer. Or I'm ancient and female and smile beatifically whilst wearing purple. Or I fuck over my crew because, well, reasons that I suffer emotionally for. Cos I'm a woman captain, obvs.

As a young officer I’d choose Voyager or DS9 (yeah, yeah, it’s a station, not a ship).

As a mature senior officer I’d join Enterprise D.

Am I the only one who isn’t annoyed by Neelix?
Tuvix on the other hand... I could’ve murdered him myself.

If you’re talking about Tuvix, the squished together meld of Tuvok and Neelix, didn’t Janeway effectively kill him by splitting him back into his component parts?

Yep, Tuvix ceased to exist when Neelix and Tuvok were split. I felt for Tuvok.

Tali I'm pretty sure that putting Nelix in the warp core would have destabilised it. Those things seem to be as temperamental as fuck.

I blame 7of9. She resurrected Neelix with her nanoprobes. You just can’t trust a drone to do the right thing.

I remember the bit at the end of the Tuvix episode, when he’s essentially begging the crew not to let Janeway kill him, and the crew’s response is basically a big awkward silence.

Poor Tuvix.

Oooh, I forgot that 7 of 9 had resurrected Neelix! Did he even say thank you, or was he too busy moping about not having seen heaven?

Ooh, Enterprise with The lovely Trip. 😋

Voyager followed closely by any other ship that visited the mirror universe. Or DS9 when they went back in time to the originals series enterprise (trials and tribble-ations.) I want a tribble as a pet!
