They are executives in a for-profit corporation. If everything wasn’t about money they wouldn’t be doing their jobs, sadly.

Yet TAS WON a freaking Emmy, and Prodigy has multiple major award nominations in just it’s first season. You’d have a good point if there were only two Trek animated series to date, with one being not rewarded, but with 2 out of 3 getting Emmy/TCA Awards and nominations, and the third show getting zilch, then sure, you can draw conclusions from that which are certainly relevant to a Trek animated series awards article.

2 out of 3, dude — it is what it is. And what it is is simply: The industry peers and critics judge Prodigy and TAS to be outstanding projects in their field, but they don’t consider Lower Decks to be worthy of similar consideration.

Don’t shoot the messenger — I don’t vote on these. But I certainly can draw conclusions from the results, and it so happens that they match my judgement of the three series. It doesn’t mean that I’m right, but it certainly points me to being more likely right than not in making a quality comparison of these three animated Trek series.

Prodigy and TAS are big game fish. LDS is a bottom feeder. But it’s all good — all three fish are part of the food chain and have their roles in putting food on the table for all fans!

Nah, my comment had some context to it, on a light thread. Your’s, not so much. Most good animated shows aren’t nominated for an award. Lower Decks hasn’t been nominated for a Pulitzer, the Nobel Peace Prize, won’t win the GOP nomination, or the World Series, either, for other irrelevant comparisons.

Sure, I just picked that series at random to dislike. WTF? Random? Seriously? Lol

I am not a fan of Lower Decks, and I have many times stated the reasons here. If you had been paying attention to my criticisms you would know that, whether you agree with them are not, my dislike of the show is not a random factor. That’s just silly and weird to suggest that?

It’s covers Star Trek animated series’, awards programs and wins in those programs. So it’s not like I got way out there in irrelevancy, like, for example, asking if Flogging Molly is still touring.

They said it won’t come in until late July.

But, its worth the wait if ordering the Bluray helps out Prodigy.

So, how is that relevant to anything?

Rules of acquisition numbers 10 and 45 are the problems here.

I feel like we need to send them like thousands of that Picard face-palming meme. Not everything needs to be just about money.

LMFAO

I completely agree with you that it felt the most like the Star Trek that had come before and I loved Kate Mulgrew’s performance. It didn’t matter to me that it was CGI, it managed to recapture the magic. I literally fought back tears at holo-Janeway’s fate and has the best opening theme and musical score of any Trek series since Voyager. Really hoping we at least get season two, I’d gladly pay directly for those episodes. Really wish Paramount would make the back ten of season one available for purchase on iTunes as well as Star Trek The Animated Series, which turns fifty this year and is the only Trek series not available on iTunes…

That’s amazing. I only could check out the first few minutes but will watch the rest when I have the time.

But it still hurts knowing what happened to this show, my favorite in the modern era. But I know not everyone loves it (obviously). But it’s so weird to see people saying that this show didn’t feel like ‘real’ Star Trek to them when it feels the most ‘Trek-y’ than all the new shows in a way, but I know everyone sees things differently. I see others saying they want to see the real Janeway and not just an animated version in a kid’s show. I definitely understand that but it’s still great to have her back and who knows in a few years maybe we will get the live action version again. It’s amazing how binary some fans can be at times.

It’s nice to see the outpouring by people who do love it and hopefully we’ll get season 2 somewhere at least.

I am so conflicted though. My dad used to know the guy who wrote the Mysterious Benedict Society book series. The author is also from Little Rock.
