minus-squareCorgana@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·7 hours agoI know DS9 is considered the “dark stories” one, but it’s still bursting with optimism compared with the majority of scifi out there.
minus-squareFlagstaff@programming.devOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·8 hours agoI just go for thought-provoking. TNG S2 has been excellent for the most part (I’ve started with TNG).
minus-squaredeegeeselinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·8 hours agoIsn’t “thought provoking“ is kinda the whole point of sci-fi? All 3 series have plenty of those, as well as their share of dud episodes. DS9 leans heavier into stories of war/colonialism. VOY is more about survival in desperate circumstances.
