This week, Mike and Tyler beam back to their TLDR run of The Original Series but this time, they’re not alone. Armed with fan reactions, hot takes, and a whole new list of “How did we miss that?” episode suggestions, the guys put together their definitive dream season of TOS. From cult classics to deep cuts, join us as we rewrite Starfleet history one wild debate at a time.

It's time for TLDR (Too Long, Didn't Read) Star Trek: The Original Series. Mike and Tyler attempt the impossible: building the perfect season of Star Trek: The Original Series. With only ten slots to fill, they debate which adventures make the cut, from iconic classics to underrated gems, in their quest to create the definitive TOS viewing experience for fans old and new.

Tyler and Mike press on through Season 2 of Deep Space Nine with a trio of fascinating episodes. In Shadowplay, Odo and Dax uncover a village where residents keep disappearing without a trace. Playing God challenges Dax to mentor a skeptical Trill initiate while facing the discovery of a fragile new universe. And in Profit and Loss, Quark’s past collides with Cardassian politics when the love of his life arrives on the run from the military.

Tyler and Mike continue their journey through Deep Space Nine with a trio of standout Season 2 episodes. In Armageddon Game, Bashir and O’Brien find themselves caught in a deadly conflict with no way out. Whispers throws O’Brien into a paranoid nightmare when everyone he knows seems to turn against him. And in Paradise, Sisko and O’Brien face the harsh philosophy of life without technology.

We continue our Strange New Worlds review as we watch Season 3, Episode 3! We also go back to some good old Deep Space Nine and continue Tyler's first watch through with our thoughts on Season 2, Episodes 11 and 12. We will be taking the month of August off, but we will return in September with our thoughts on half of Season 3 of Strange New Worlds! See you in September!
