I just noticed something: LD is the only current ST series with NO CALENDAR!

How come there's no Lower Decks wall calendar?

I'd certainly buy one. At least as long as it DIDN'T have the infamous Boimler nude scene from "Cupid's Errant Arrow."

I'd only get the calendar if it DID feature both the Boimler nude scenes from “Cupid's Errant Arrow” and “I, Excretus”.

I have lots of merch ideas that could use those moments, actually. How about one of those mugs where you insert a hot liquid and the black censor bar disappears?

Just use this free printable calendar with custom photo adding feature and use any photo you like.

Read instructions and tips carefully.

Maybe something along the lines of a nude Ken doll with molded-on underwear?

Meh, I only buy Ships of the Line anyway.

I’m just glad TNG got a calendar! Heh. But I do agree, a Lower Decks calendar would HAVE to feature that famous Boimler scene. I mean even I know it and I don’t even watch Lower Decks

 

[F. King Daniel]

The potential for a Lower DeXXX calendar is high

 

[Burning Hearts of Qo'nos]

I also choose nude Boimler.

I think I've created a monster here.

Do we really want a published calendar that's NSFW at best, and a gross-out at worst?

Are we surprised by this in fandom?

I suppose I shouldn't be, in a fandom that is generally regarded as the origin of slash fiction.

Pretty much. Best to ignore it and move on.

Someone call Paramount, I think we got a bestseller here …

 

[hbquikcomjamesl]

No doubt for your next trick, you'll do one on "The Eye-Screams of Star Trek."

Followed by transporter accidents through the ages and Know Disintegrations of all the phaser kills, especially Remmicks'!

I would absolutely buy this calendar!

An issue with SotL, except for 2018, I believe (with a lone appearance of the Discoprise), is it's complete lack of Newer Trek content. It seems almost universally focused on pre-2005 Trek, with Kelvin stuff not being allowed most of the time and all the Paramount+ stuff ignored (except once). 2022 has the Enterprise-F from Star Trek Online, and I guess there's been some other Online things, but that's not really my jazz.

I really would like to see a good CGI calendar that embraces all of Star Trek, perhaps including the Disco-era ships in formation, see some Californias in action during the Dominion War, view the launch of the Protostar, get a nice cutaway of the Zheng He, maybe a battle between Starfleet and the Emerald Chain. We've been introduced to four or five different eras of Starships in the last five years that have been completely ignored by Ships of the Line.

Not to mention that there were people who actually thought a Christmas tree ornament of a salt vampire attempting to eat Kirk was actually a good idea.
