Basically every time I look up a reference I didn't get in Lower Decks, it came from TAS. Starting to feel like I'm missing out.

    They’re like episodes of TOS, but speed ran and on (even more) crack. They’re delightful, despite the limited animation.

    TAS seems to be all ideas that they had during TOS that they were not able to accomplish with their limited budget in live action but they could get away with in animation. Things like weird non-humanoid alien main characters, characters breathing underwater, characters becoming giants, etc.

    I recommend at least watching Yesteryear, the episode about Spock's childhood. That's a good one, written by one of Star Trek's most significant writers, D. C. Fontana.

    If you want to learn what the deal is with Spock 2 you'll have to watch a very, very strange episode.
