He was an idealistic, but flawed, man who often failed to live up to his own ideals. Obviously he must be derided and scornned, because we are now incapable of nuance.

I've never heard of this show or this person but he is right up my alley looks-wise and the show sounds cool so thanks for that op. Also apparently there was an earlier run and a new run? Which one is this referring to?

Roddenberry was a very flawed person. He obviously he made great contributions, which I don't really need to go into here. But at the same time, he was a wildly self-aggrandizing man, he was manipulative, he took advantage of people financially, he had a lot of absolutely terrible ideas, he took credit for a lot of things done by other people, and he made a mess of a lot of things that he touched. He was a very obstreperous and difficult person when it came to the process of making the TOS movies and making TNG, and he put some really bad people in charge of TNG which had a very negative creative impact on the early years of the show.

At the same time, certain parts of the fanbase of the show essentially deified Gene. There was this attitude, which he encouraged, that he was not just a TV writer but a great futurist and moral thinker. And this attitude was used as a cudgel in arguments about Star Trek canon, and still is to some extent - any part of Star Trek that some fan didn't look could be written off as "not part of Gene's vision". And especially for the 90s shows - on the one hand you have Gene being responsible for many problems of the early years of TNG, while at the same time people use Gene as a symbol of everything right with Star Trek and why modern Star Trek didn't count. So I think that bred a lot of resentment and dislike of Gene. And that led people to overlook the real contributions which he did make because they had been magnified so far out of proportion.

Also, it seems that Roddenberry treated women badly. I don't think that's where the dislike of Roddenberry among some fans originated. But it's definitely played a role, especially in recent years.

This. He may have been progressive for someone of his generation, but really only for his generation, and he wasn't perfect and definitely not what they would today call "woke".

And that's it really, as far as I can tell. I'm personally still grateful for what he started, no matter how much I cringe at certain episodes of TOS and so on.

Honestly if I didn’t have the text context of the secret I was going to presume people were imagining Bert and Ernie are the parents of the Among Us avatars. Which is probably weirder.

Noooooo that would suck. Why even adapt the Culture if you're not going to get the ship names right?

(Anonymous) 2022-03-03 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
It'll depend on the character. I've been impressed with some of his performances so we'll see.

But I don't really trust the weibo fandom netizens to be anything but toxic regardless of how he performs.
