The whole idea of "Canon" is a comforting self delusion and lie.
Let it go. Enjoy what's in front of you. Stop getting distracted by things that don't really matter to the story at hand. That's how TOS did it.Let it go?
I love that song
I mean there's nothing wrong with your second point about enjoying what you like and not getting distracted by minutiae, buuuut unlike other franchises Star Trek quite literally does have an official canon:
That would be the lie part.
Wake up sheeple Big Trek and Wikipedia are lying to you!
Canon
Ah, yes, the word that separates which made-up stories are more real than other made-up stories!
YES! Perfect description! That should be the definition of the term.
TOS is underrated
ALL Star Trek is underrated.
Star Trek should have been the property that influences the entire culture of the United States of America, like how Doctor Who influences the culture of the United Kingdom. Instead, US culture is based around Star Wars and Star Trek is regulated to a bunch of punchlines that normal people know just enough to understand.
This is a hot take out of, like, 1979. The general public hasn't had this relationship to Trek in a long ass time.
I honestly don't care
