Pass it on
Star Trek
59Watch it awake.
A crew under orders, curious, and not ashamed of a rule. The original still holds.
The review
Kirk is impulsive and the show's better idea is the triangle around him. Spock wants the true account. McCoy wants the person in the room. The ship has a purpose that is not conquest. Many episodes are clumsy, and some are only a rubber suit. The structure is what Pluto is still airing for a reason: a command, a log, and a question that is not settled by the phaser.
A family can watch the famous ones. Say when the future looks like 1966, because it does. Then notice that the show thought a free people would still have ranks, logs, and a prohibition on playing god. That argument has not gotten less useful.
Journal
Keep Star Trek in the record.
No house has filed a sentence for this yet.
Live Historic number 59. Yours can differ.
The glance
Household and Piety are the thin ones.
Is a marriage, a parent, or a child a real life here, or just a prop?
This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.
Consider this
Star Wars Rebels
70 instead of 59
Star Wars Rebels is still a science-fiction show, and it scores 70 instead of 59. What you gain is household: The crew is the household.
The eight
- 7Industry
A starship is a workplace. The landing party has a job, not a vibe.
- 3Household
The crew is the household. Families are mostly left behind, and the show rarely counts that cost.
- 4Piety
Wonder is the method. Hubris is the weekly sin.
- 7Courage
They beam down. The courage is often the refusal to destroy what they do not understand.
- 7Republic
A chain of command inside a mission that is not an empire.
- 6Temperance
The strange is examined. It is not consumed.
- 7Truth
The log is a duty. Spock's whole character is a refusal to lie to the facts.
- 6Stewardship
The prime directive, when they honor it, is a limit in favor of people they will not rule.
