Just saw this and man i knew its been a while but seeing the sentence "The predators haven't won a playoff series since 2018" kinda broke me.
Lot to positive about though. Probably the most I've been excited in the last few years. I'm really excited to see what the new guys bring in.
This is an apology post to my boy Wesley. I just recently watched First Duty and I was BLOWN AWAY. I made a post about a month ago when I first started watching TNG and voiced my displeasure at Wesleys stories. Now after watching First Duty I gotta say a Wesley episode is now one of my all time favorite Star Trek episodes (so far). Starting season 7 now!
So I finished everything in release order of all Star Trek up to the end of season 3 of TNG and I'm seriously confused. Why the hell does Wesley have such a large role on the ship?? I'm loving just about every character and the show is everything I hoped and more but man every time Wesley steps in to immediately solve a problem or take over in a crazy situation it just kinda takes me out of it. Not all the way or anything as I've said I'm thoroughly enjoying it.
I am still super new to Star Trek as I only started watching a few weeks ago but I'm loving each new piece of media I pick up. So far I gotta admit TNG has been my favorite (i love Johnathan Frakes and was always a huge fan of Sir Patrick Stewart). I'm only about halfway through the show though and I tried to hold my tongue but man at the end of season 3 I just really can't understand the child being this amazing and perfect at everything he does.
TLDR; Why is a child the smartest and bravest person on a starship?
