261 - Trek Pitch

​Selling Trek, old and new. It's easy to critique Star Trek - whether from the dated sets and attitudes of The Original Series to the convoluted storylines of the recent series. But we are Trek fans, so it's time to celebrate what we love about this franchise. The trio takes turns "selling" each series of Trek to a hypothetical new viewer: Why should you begin with TOS? Or the Animated Series? Where should you start if you're just beginning to watch Deep Space Nine or Enterprise? We also examine all the good things the 21st Century Trek shows have brought to the franchise, from the cast of Discovery to the ideals in Picard. But just to satisfy our need to still critique things, we end the show with each person nominating one series of Star Trek to erase from franchise history.
