To get more discussion going about Trek, I’m thinking of making an episode-or-movie-a-day discussion thread, going more or less in order from the beginning. So this would mean starting with “Where No Man Has Gone Before” (pushing “The Cage” back and combining it with “The Menagerie”), and following the episode order as laid out on Memory Alpha.
Hopefully this’ll also inspire people to rewatch Trek, even “Spock’s Brain” and “Code of Honor” and “Profit and Lace” and “Threshold” and (god help us) “These Are the Voyages.”
The big question right now is, how much interest is there in gettin’ real nerdy here?
I am always in favor of gettin’ real nerdy. This reminds me a bit of the podcast The Lazy Doctor Who, where over time (with no particular schedule) the podcasters post podcasts for every episode in order of Doctor Who. In their case they comment while rewatching the episode. A podcast is different than a community post on Lemmy. However, it might be beneficial to slow down a bit and post less frequently to give people time to watch/rewatch the episode in question as context for your posts and thus encourage more discussion among subscribers, particularly as the community hopefully grows over time.
