TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Doctor Who seems the most forgiving in that area. It has a built in etch-a-sketch mechanism between series/actors/writers and we've generally gotten accustomed to shrugging and go "sure, why not" again and again.
Doctor Who... the franchise that gave us 3 (or 4?) different explanations for the sinking of Atlantis!
Perhaps it was sunk a dozen times, maybe hundreds, who can tell? Perhaps it was sunk a dozen times, maybe hundreds, who can tell? Perhaps it was sunk a dozen times, maybe hundreds, who can tell? (Perhaps it was sunk a dozen times ...)
H2G2 has multiple canons between the books, radio play, miniseries, and movie
The unifying thread comes from the towel you always keep at your side.
I keep mine on my shoulder to minimize the water mess from that damned Babel fish.

Yeah, I remember watching the re-boot thinking, first thinking, "wow, this is getting really complicated" before realizing it was a just a kid's show ultimately and nobody was taking the timeline implications seriously.
I don´t think you could have a show like Dr. Who with strict canon. Every other episode would be a Yesterday's Enterprise, with a former Dr running about in the background from the original episode.
9 (Tennant) best encapsulates the confusion:
There is/was a Time War, enemies are back and gone again. Best not to think too hard on it or risk an aneurism.
He's 10 , but yes.
Shit, right. Uh... canon has changed. Yeah, that's the ticket.
No! Nononono I'll accept any number from 10 to at least 14 for that face* but 9? Shame on you sir/madam, that is 9 erasure and I won't stand for it! Hashtag Never Skip Nine!
* metacrises and aborted regenerations and fugitives and whofuckingknows and whatnot
Meant no harm. I love my dancing doctor.
