1/10. Sparkly Klingons and Michael's Mad Space Adventure. The only good things about Discovery were put into SNW.

Stay in high school then once you get past learning basic economics, have another go at thinking.

If you want to see a TV show, but pirate it instead, did the company lose any money*? Yes.

This thread is hilarious.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not anti-piracy by any means, and I'm as bothered by the changing of services as the next person. I just found it amusing that people seemed to disagree that pirating would have an impact on the bottom line of the execs, so that life was imitating art.

I'm still salty about Firefly even though it's been so long since it was cancelled that I've grown and raised a literal human being

This interaction reminds me of an Always Sunny episode. The gang are mad because their favourite movie franchise sold out and got bad, so the whole episode is about them complaining with the movie execs about how the changes made to the movie (to attract different audiences in order to try to make the franchise profitable again) all suck, and what they should be doing differently. But the punchline of the episode is they have all along been streaming the movie series and not paying to watch it, so they are part of the problem.

Never expected to see it played out IRL though, and the fact you're being downvoted makes it all a bit less funny…

E: and now me :D maybe the dissenters would like to enlighten us as to how piracy doesn't affect capitalism?

Hey just so you know, the word you’re after is “series”, it’s plural. “Series’s” means either something belonging to the series, or “series is”. :)

SNW has a Lower Decks crossover episode, which is hilarious. Imo, SNW is essentially the only good characters taken from Discovery (which is fucking awful) and put in a far superior Trek. It’s got the same “doesn’t take itself too seriously while still addressing serious things” as some of the light-hearted Voyager/DS9 episodes.

That’s a bit harsh, I’m sure your son is much more mature.

People like you are why we left Reddit.

I always thought the Ferengi attitude towards women was meant to be an extreme parody of existing attitudes, to demonstrate how ludicrous they are.
