you fuckers are all over my active feed and I’m laughing at shit I don’t understand. I refuse to believe the show is this funny, but if, say, a friend wanted to prove me wrong, what incarnation of star trek would they tell me to start from? especially if they knew I hadn’t seen a single episode.

    If you’re looking for funny then Lower Decks is hot hot hot. If you’re looking for mostly serious but lots of jokes thrown in then Strange New Worlds is the way to go. If you want classic but not campy, the next Generation and skip the first season maybe and go back to it? Or don’t skip it idk. The Original Series is a 60s show through and through. It’s great but hard for some people to watch. But if you’ve watched old shows before and liked them then do it! Finally if you’re in the mood for something dark to with DS9.

      I will add the caveat that many of the best jokes of Lower Decks will be completely lost on a Trek neophyte.

        Thanks for this - I almost started there based on someone else’s comment but decided against it and I’m glad I did. I’m wary of starting somewhere that might warrant a rewatch, when there’s so much to cover.
