Podcast collapsing on the weight of its mission

“I used to love this podcast and listened to it religiously, that is until they started reviewing Deep Space Nine. I get it, John, Ken and now, Norman don’t see as much of Gene’s vision in DS9 and have more issues with it. That’s fine to have a differing opinions and at first I welcomed the different perspectives. But along the way, episode after episode, the podcast devolved into John and Norman wishing the DS9 was different, lamenting what could have been (with their rewrite discussions) in the scripts and just overall have created a feeling of disappointment with Star Trek. It’s gotten so bad that it’s all but certain that John and Norman are going to struggle to find much that is redeeming about a DS9 episode. The thing is, I’ve listened to plenty of other Star Trek podcasts that don’t have such a hard time with these same episodes of Deep Space Nine. They don’t struggle as much to find morals and messages. Sure, they have issues with certain aspects of the show’s darker nature, but it’s not so bad that it makes listening to the podcast unenjoyable. It makes me wonder if John and Norman are so tied to their vision of what they think Star Trek should be, they can’t really appreciate DS9 and it’s unique merits. At the end of the day, podcasts are entertainment, and this podcast has become a chore to listen to.”

“I greatly enjoy the discussion of Star Trek on this podcast. It is interesting and intelligent, and very respectful of the show. I hope it stays on for the duration as they are promising, I have never been a fan of Next Gen and the other series and hope to get through them with the...”Read full review »
