I love having an entire live TV channel dedicated to re-runs of old Star Trek episodes

Ok so, I have a little Kodi setup which includes a live tv system hooked up to Pluto so I can grab a bunch of channels for free. Turns out, this includes not one, but two whole channels of just Star Trek!

The first one is mostly TNG and the original series, and the other one (“creatively” called More Star Trek) has mainly Voyager and Deep Space Nine. I like these because I don’t even have to think about what episode to watch, and can just enjoy some Star Trek!

The only downside to this is well, ads lol

    I find the PlutoTV app to also be much more user-friendly and reliable than Paramount Plus. I would rather be able to have everything on demand and pay Paramount, but the Paramount Plus app is so buggy on my Smart TV and on Kodi that I’ve given up.

    The last straw was when I was actually contemplating writing a script to automatically restart Kodi because of how often Paramount Plus dies on Kodi.

    I agree with you that it’s nice in a way not even having to think about what to watch next. If something really bad comes on, like that pretty racist TNG episode from season 1 or the Voyage lizard episode, it’s a lot easier to just switch from the Star Trek to the More Trek channel, or vice versa, and be done with it.
