What are your guy’s thoughts on the theme for Star Trek: The Animated Series (1973)?

I feel like:

  1. It almost sounds like the battle music for a Star Trek turn-based JRPG on the Nintendo DS.
  2. I feel like PRO’s theme gives very similar vibes to this one while having a distinct identity.
  3. I almost feel like this theme is a weird in-between of the TOS theme and TNG-era theme (which makes perfect sense - I mean what else would be between the 60s and the 80s).

    Have you seen the VOY one they did as well of the salamander Tom Paris episode?

    TAS really is (besides maybe that weird stuff with the inflatable Enterprise, giant Spock, or that iffy bit of chauvinism in “The Slaver Weapon”) a great TOS continuation. I loved The Lorelei Signal for giving Uhura and Chapel the opportunity to be girl bosses.

    On a bit of a tangential note, I hope we get some excuse to see young April. It kind of makes me sad that STA is going to be set in the 32nd century and not the peaceful yet mysterious 2290s-2330s period. I feel like you could have just depicted academy life without all the “save the universe drama” (okay, maybe just a little, but not every episode) while following the late careers of a few officers like April or Sulu.
