Please avoid spoilers including episode titles, and references to future episodes. They read this (Josh does anyway). You might want to edit the OP to remove titles and upcoming references (this show or others).

Didn't know there was a tier above S!

Might be a bit early for that still?

You did not just say something named Buffy is better than TNG did you ?
Derek Orr

As a Canadian I agree absolutely 💯

Something's wrong with the calendar graphic. It says ST-VI is still 4 days away. We should have made it "VI on the 6th"! 😉
This movie gets bumped up one tier in rank just cause it's such an appropriate send off for the TOS cast.

Which version of Star Trek 6 will you be watching?

Many times there will be a choice for English (forced) that’s specifically for subtitles only when the dialog is non English. Always put that on if it’s a choice.

As an European I am so confused about your week beginning on Sunday. This is highly illogical Spock would say.

I love how some folks love to talk about future episodes. The boys are watching FOR THE FIRST TIME. Shitcan these self-serving posts. Post how smart you are AFTER they see it.
Michael Metrick
2025-01-02 17:47:03 +0000 UTC
well thats certainly an opinion considering which episodes that includes.
Selina
2025-01-02 16:18:15 +0000 UTC
Deleted my own comment. It wasn't spoilers but heavy on like/dislike opinions. Alex & Josh you really need to set up a bunch more Patron Takes threads to give us somewhere to pontificate more safely, since that's what we all love doing.
Paul Hess
2025-01-02 14:16:22 +0000 UTC
Pat Sayjak or Ryan Seacrest? Either way, their Moose is cooked.
Nolan
2025-01-02 10:28:29 +0000 UTC
See, we need to just get them to watch Scrubs to get them off the Sci-fi train and psuedo-subject them to more Dr. Stubbs.
Nolan
2025-01-02 10:27:43 +0000 UTC
It's such a shame that the quote my brain most associates with his Scrubs character is no longer appripriate to say out of context, especially anytime ragging on Stubbs comes up.
Nolan
2025-01-02 10:25:53 +0000 UTC
This happens so often on DVDs and streaming and I'm absolutely boggled by such a brain-dead choice. I had to rewatch the first hour of Dune Part 2 when I rented it off Amazon cause I realized I was missing important shit.
Nolan
2025-01-02 10:23:10 +0000 UTC
Well now, E23, won't THAT be an interesting conversation then...
Nolan
2025-01-02 10:20:47 +0000 UTC
Really blitzing through the Expanse. Hope you enjoy it.

A note on the next TNG episode which people might have already mentioned. Originally the guest star was supposed to be Robin Williams and the episode was written for him, but he had to cancel because when it came time to shoot, his wife was 8 and a half months pregnant, so instead we got a similar premise with a much weaker guest actor.
Would have been interesting to see what Williams would have done with the role.
I agree with most here, I think TNG unfortunately is entering into a bit of a slump not having viewed TNG based on season before this, I was a bit surprised as to how relatively weak this next five episode stretch is.
The best of these is likely "Hero Worship" but rewatching it not long ago, it didn't hold up as well I remember, though it might be something Josh and Alex enjoy.
From there it's strong, except for S5E23 which for me is an absolute E, it has to be because it completely ignores cannon and makes zero sense.
Thinking about it, while I'm a fan of TNG, I don't think TNG quite lived up to "Great Television" (though I think Buffy did) despite great characters and being so Influential.
Watching a bit of DS9 recently, its clear thats the highwater mark for the franchise and starting probably with "Duet", things that are going to make Alex and Josh's jaw drop.

I’m not really interested in any of the episodes until ep 14. It’s going to be a long month.

after Star Trek 6, I wouldn't mind seeing a Star Trek TOS retrospective if that is something worth doing.
how have your feelings of the series changed (if at all) since you finished it and now that you're deep into TNG
how much do you go back and rewatch episodes?
has your opinions of certain episodes changed? better/worse?
just kind of curious to revisit this now that you've had a chance to sit with it for a while.

We shouldn't talk about Dr Stubbs' appearance in STVI, it'll be a spoiler. ;)

The director knows when he's got a good thing. You sometimes need guest actors to ham it up slightly when paired with Giant Ham William Shatner.
Ian Westcott
2025-01-01 23:57:55 +0000 UTC
FYI, I have a recommendation for watching Star Trek 6 -- I noticed that in the copy that I have, you have to watch it with subtitles turned on. When seen in the theater, they had subtitles for alien languages so you knew what was being said, and this was important for the plot; as there are scenes with just aliens speaking to each other that audiences were supposed to know what was being said.
In the DVD version, turning off regular English subtitles turns off ALL subtitles, including the plot-important alien dialogue.
( I think you already watch with subs turned on so you can talk while watching, but just in case )

Doesn't sound very enthusiastically. Damn SciFi. :-)

Sooo....I've been $10 tier for a couple of years...do i get the uncut expanse or the edited version.
Monty Crawford
2025-01-01 23:32:41 +0000 UTC
Wait it says the expanse unedited was yesterday?
Paul
2025-01-01 23:19:46 +0000 UTC
Agree after a recent rewatch, for reasons I’ll expand on after they’ve seen it.
Paul Rymer
2025-01-01 22:57:47 +0000 UTC
Can’t wait, will happily watch again

I'm going to have a good Trek week next week. I love Episode 9, not for all my typical highfalutin reasons but just because it's a fun romp. Then ST VI, which I love for all my typical highfalutin reasons, most notably a great guest actor who not only tears his scenes apart but clearly has fun doing it. I think the director was afraid to stop him!

You guys are going to love ST6, it's the perfect finale to the TOS movie saga.
Tim b
2025-01-01 19:07:55 +0000 UTC
The guys also do 2-3 Trek episodes in a row. But they don't drop it at once. So what's the difference?
Sam Langanke
2025-01-01 19:03:47 +0000 UTC
They did it just for you
Doug
2025-01-01 18:23:59 +0000 UTC
honestly in season 1 it can be very hard to keep track of everything thats going on, its probably better to do a couple in a row rather than spacing them out so much

2-3 Expanse episodes per session? Why?

On January 8th they are going to watch The Wheel of Fortune. I've never seen anyone react to that; it might even be interesting...

We are watching in release order so it will be theatrical then we will circle back to Donner cut later

Watching you guys watch ST VI is the moment I've been waiting for since I first found your YT channel. I saw this movie when it was released in theatres and it was an experience I will never forget but am excited to re-live with you!
Sherpa Jones
2025-01-01 17:24:40 +0000 UTC
A week early for mine, and just as excited for this moment! Saw it in theatres when it was released and IMO is the best Star Trek movie of all time! TWOK is a very, very close second.
Sherpa Jones

Undiscovered Country react is the best birthday gift y'all could give! Thank y'all for everything you do! <3

Star Trek VI! You guys have no idea how excited I am for your reactions to the movie! 😃🖖 But I also can't wait for your TNG reactions to episodes 10, 11 & 14!

Star Trek: VI on the 10th yeah! You both are going to love this move!

Is Superman II going to be the theatrical version or the Richard Donner Cut?
