I know this is typically a meme community, but in the Trek spirit, I’m sharing what is a pretty rare, new Mr. Plinkett video from the folks over at RedLetterMedia!

if you’re not familiar with RedLetterMedia, they’re not only great film reviewers, but they love Star Trek. they’ve been around for 15+ years and do tons of all kinds of videos, especially reviews of Trek stuff that’s always both well-made and also hilarious, namely the famous Mr. Plinkett reviews.
here’s a playlist containing some of the craziest Plinkett reviews (including his Trek reviews, his Star Wars reviews, and others). There are many, many more, plus RLM’s many, many years of videos for their shows Half in the Bag, Best of the Worst, re:View, and others. They’re one of, if not my favorite, YT crew, as they’re serious and insightful while being very well-educated in film and tv production, while also being massive geeks, trek and SW fans, and extremely funny.
I’ve never subscribed, but have seem random videos of theirs. I’ll have to pay closer attention
their Picard reviews are awesome. Honestly, the worse the material is, the better their videos are. They tear that show to fucking shreds, and, when it gets to S03, they really give it the credit it’s due.
it’s a whole crew, and only a few of them are die-hard Trek fans, and they kinda make fun of one or two of the others who aren’t. it’s really fun how good of friends they all are (they’re all in their 40s now, but have been close friends since high school). The rapport they have is nice.
Also, sometime Macauly Culckin stops in to review films with them. They became friends somehow.
