Quote from: HVC on September 06, 2023, 10:10:41 AMJust checked lower decks still shows on CTV Sci-Fi website, and they have a sept 7th premier banner :unsure:
Yes, it is on their website, but it's not showing on the tv guide, only reruns.  Could be a mistake in the description.  I've still set up the recorder for both episodes.

Paramount+ Canada should not have the rights to the new Trek series either, on CTV Sci-Fi.  Everywhere I read, it says you should subsribe to Paramount+ with a VPN. :wacko:


The series is distributed worldwide by Paramount Global Distribution Group.[58] In February 2023, Paramount made a new deal with Prime Video for the series' international streaming rights. This allowed all existing seasons to be added to Paramount+ in some other countries in addition to remaining on Prime Video.[59] In July 2023, Bell Media announced that the series would be leaving Crave over the following month, likely so it could move to Paramount+ in Canada. Lower Decks would continue to be broadcast on CTV Sci-Fi and be available on CTV.ca and the CTV app.

You'll see soon if it's the right broadcast. Personally I miss Star Trek 😞.

Lower Decks is so silly, but at the same time, it feels like it's TNG all over again. :)

I wish the seasons of Strange New Worlds were a tad longer though.

Yes in both.

Just watched the musical episode. Was better than I expected it to be. Like that they made it happen within a proper trek context and not just outvof the blue.

Quote from: Grey Fox on September 06, 2023, 09:53:40 AMParamount took the Star Trek series back from Crave. Most should now, finally, be available on Paramount+ in Canada.

Wait....so the next season of Strange New Worlds won't be on Crave??

Have you been able to watch the episodes, Viper?

I've liked the first three so far.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".

Yes :)  Only the description was wrong.  The episodes were the correct ones.  Videotron shall retain one of their customers, for now. :P

I liked the first two, but I haven't seen the 3rd one yet. :)

Good episode of lower decks. But then again I've always been partial to ferengi.

I complained about pun episode titles in Star Wars. Star Trek, however ... "Parth Ferengi's Heart Place" :wub:

Good fun. The Ferengi war memorial was *chef's kiss* :lol:

T was surely nice to see rom and leeta again. Double so since I just watched the baseball episode

Up to ep 3 of the new strange new worlds. Eagerly await the cross over.
Though I noticed something towards the start. Engineer lady says the federation is explicitly a socialist utopia.
Is this a first mention like so?
It's always been obvious but can't remember it in as many words.

I think the closest they came before is the speech Picard gave to the 20th century industrialist who had been in a cryogenic freezer.

He never mentioned the word "socialist" though.

He just said they abolished money and the people had took Shakespeare words literally when he said "kill all the lawyers".

Perfect utopia.  :ph34r:

As I recall the speech it was that there was no need for money and they had eliminated want.  Yes, he did not say the word "socialist" but he described what it would look like if it was ever actually created.
