Giamatti upheld a long tradition of villainous scenery chewing on Star Trek in a way I normally would have enjoyed, but it really clanged with the rest of the tone of the show.

Ah, well, All Good Things... right?

Giamatti is good and all, but she's still a baby bird with Sisko chewing the scenery first

God you're so right. Brooks knew how to chew a scene like no other. Only de Lancie came close.

Brooks chewed entire sets. Shater hammed it all up

I'd have to agree. It's kind of a pity we might not see Giamatti get to do Star Trek again. (And off-topic, but I feel the same way about Amanda Plummer.)

All I've seen of Academy is one scene of Giamatti on YouTube. I've heard that that scene isn't representative of the whole show, unfortunately.

Starfleet academy was good and I’m tired of everyone pretending it wasn’t.

Right there with ya.

It actually felt like a star trek show, more so than anything since DS9. Coulda done with less full face close ups though.

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
